I'm Shocked -- SHOCKED!! -- To Find Racism in America.The Terrorists Have Won

Teams in two Cleveland suburbs are quitting a youth football league because of racially insensitive actions by fans, coaches said. . . .

The president of the Hudson Hawks Youth Football Association, John Elffers, has apologized for fans who wore Afro wigs and painted their faces black at a playoff game Sunday. Shaker Heights coach Jeffrey Saffold said Hudson fans also used a racially offensive word during Sunday's game and at two other times. . . .

Elffers said in a written statement that the Hudson fans' actions were foolish and insensitive but not intended to insult or offend. He said Hudson's teams have played in the league for 15 years and have not received previous complaints about the costumes, even against other teams with black players.

Apparently not on the 15-years-of-racial-bliss memo "To:" line, was Paul Samide, a Hudson fan, who said they have worn black wigs and face paint for years because of the team's nickname, Black Hawks.

Apparently, hawks in Ohio have cottony plumes, bang frying pans together (watch the video), and squawk, "Nigger," at black children. It's no wonder they are the first choice of mascots for suburban sports clubs.

Go Hawks!
