As for the whole "I hate PC, everyone takes offense too easy" theme we've heard, I agree to some extent, but let's turn scenario this around a bit.
Say we all catch wind of a couple sportscasters in Nashville talking about Our Local Hero And Captain and one of them casually mentions that Jarome grew up in a housing project selling crack, because that's what black kids do.
How funny (or harmless) would we think that is?

Personally if it was done in the same manner as it was on Friday I wouldn't care at all.
And if it was done with a racist intent I probably wouldn't care too much either.
Whats the point in getting up in arms about what dome dope in NAshville thinks about Blacks or Iginla?
