Before every game I've worked that has a PA announcer, an announcement is read that strongly encourages sportsmanship to all present. How can we justify their reading the statement if we're not willing to enforce it?

There's nothing that says fans can't taunt opponents, IMO. As for racism, how?

OOO, IMO. Unless he says something blatantly racist or profane, I'm not touching it. I repeat myself, no need to look for trouble here.
