That may be true but how are those of us who are not in the black community supposed to know that? I'm curious to know where we can find a list of these politically and racially incorrect terms, so we don't offend these who are so easily offended.

Why so few criticisms of the league and the officials on this topic? Chaney had a press conference and threatened to use a goon - he should have been suspended then. If not, the officials should have been alerted to be on the lookout for this behavior and acted swiftly. How did this kid get 5 shots at the St. Joe's players? He should have been bounced after the first hard foul.
Actually, there is another thread where the fouls and the officials are being discussed. Bruno, the commissioner, is catching a lot of crap for her role in all of this.
