If you went to an African country which is predominantly black would you have an issue with them using a goofy caricature of a white person's face that exaggerates stereotypical white facial features as a team logo? I kinda would... 

I was being kinda facetious. Really, just having some fun at the expense of others in this thread who think that those comparisons are legit. I guess that can be easily lost on a message board, but I just assume that everyone knows my stance on things like this by now.

For what it's worth though, I don't think I'd be personally offended by this happening in an African country. People who look like me haven't been treated as lesser human beings for centuries though. I imagine if that were not the case, I may be offended by caricatures meant to degrade me. 

It's just another form of oppression....make them look like fools enough, and eventually people start to buy it.
