I hate when people assume you are racist just because you are white. I worked a girl's youth league game a while back. 8th grade girls, one team was all black, the other team was all white except for one girl. It was a good game and at halftime, we sat in the corner and talked about how well both teams were playing for being 8th graders. Just then a parent (black) came up and said we were calling in favor of the white team because we want them to win and she didn't like it! It wasn't 20 seconds later that another parent (white), yelled down at us..."what's the matter, you don't think white people can play ball? you won't give them any calls !" ........You can't win ! By the way, the kids were great and every player came by after the game to thank us for calling the game...both teams!
