If saying this doesnt make you feel uncomfortable
On this site/board any use of terminology to describe a non Caucasian makes me uncomfortable in general.
However, I have no idea why you think it would make me uncomfortable to say they looked African American or black (the race) because their arms and legs in the video were black (the color) or at least dark brown. Just like the ref looked white (the race) because his skin was off white(the color). Maybe my eyes deceived me. Maybe they were wearing leggings and sleeves which seems popular now days even in scorching heat. I was wrong. I have no problems admitting that.

No the fact that you think it mattered is what should make you uncomfortable. I mean there is veiled racism. There is even stereotyping. Then there is what youve done. With only (incorrectly perceived) anecdotal evidence, you have correlated certain actions with certain skin colors. You think that blacks are more likely to lash out violently on the field. This is unfounded.
