Maybe it's already been pointed out in this thread, but the Washington NFL team has a long history of racism. In the '60's, they were the last NFL team to hire a black player, and the team owner wanted to keep it as an all white team to cater to their southern US fan base. A Washington sportswriter who didn't get along with the owner wrote that the team colours were "burgundy gold and Caucasian".
