If he had said "Hack-A-Mick", I would have been surprised at the television announcer's insensitivity, but I would have not been overly offended, especially if the announcer pleaded ignorance, and then apologized.

Of course I can't speak for the Ancient Order of Hibernians, who recently called on Walmart to stop selling T-shirts that said, "I May Not Be Irish, But I Can Drink Like One”.

Man, after all this posting today, I can really use a cold beer.
