I thought we were supposed to disregard people's race altogether, not be mindful of it. (I can play the PC game too!)

I am wondering how many African American officials may have felt that when describing Ted Valentine Rut could have been more professional.
I don't know. Let's ask one. HEY RUT!!! Did you feel that you could have been more professional in describing Ted Valentine?

Love and Respect!
Believe me, we ALL love and respect Teddy V. Anybody who tosses Bobby Knight and then gives him his third T before he leaves gets a plaque in my Officiating Hall of Fame.

I don't think there's any shame or stigma in being called a black official, if one is, in fact a black official. Just my personal opinion. Of course, I'm not black; so I may just be full of hot air.

Chuck
