I've always found it ridiculous that people even consider this racist at all. Mentioning a person's ethnicity is just a description. Next thing someone's going to tell me is that saying "man" or "woman" is sexist. I don't feel I described them in a demeaning manner with regards to their race. If you think otherwise, let me know and I'll try to watch what I type in the future.

I didn't say it was racist. I don't think it is. I just find it very peculiar and surprising. It's like saying you witnessed a bar brawl, and specifying that you were drinking Corona when it occurred. Out-of-the-blue irrelevant specifications like that are always weird to me.

Oh, and by the way -- I am not famous actor/musician Mos Def.

Ok, well for the record, the reason why I describe people like that is that it feels weird if I start my post with:
The two villains in the hand are X and Y. X is blah blah blah and Y is blah blah blah. In terms of relevance to the hand, no, the races of those players are not relevant.
