No one uses Honkey anymore.

What if all the players are white and one teammate calls another "white trash?" What if a white player calls another white player a "wigga?" What if the word "cracker" is used?

There are a lot of words that are not so obvious. Are you going to get upset if a white player called person of color "boy?"

The rule says "inappropriate language," not just the most obvious racial terms. I would bet that many here do not even know the many slang words or their meaning to even penalize it.

Peace
