The sport of Racism

I have never seen so much physical blows, attacks & defense moves, as in the sport of Racism. Back then the playing court had two prominent halves with the ball being lobbed back and forth over the net. Today it appears the net has been torn down the court transformed into a circle with the ball being hit in almost every angle. Just place any "non-white" in the ring among other persons and you await the bell of cynicism. However, for some strange reason, the world around me have immuned those with white colored skin to being victims of racism but that's another blog entry.

Prevalent today in the world of sports we find racist remarks, taunts striving; When good old playing the sport fairy doesn't work lets try and hit someone below the belt and disturbed their performance.

Recently the Indian cricket board banned their team member Harbhajan for alleged racist remarks at the only none white of the aussie cricket team Symmonds.
What I can't understand in the case is how two races popular for receiving racist remarks at themselves {or two persons arguable describe of certain ethic group}, are spun in a web of throwing remarks at each other. The whole debate is over the usage of a word "monkey".

I don't know if this is a case for lack of understanding cultures as I once read somewhere of the Hindu Monkey god (For eg. PIG usage: Person cutting in traffic /Taken: I'm fat) or a case of using the wrong word at the wrong time (switched from dog, to pig then ended at monkey oops too late. Can't take it back) , or just another round in the racism ring.

Whatever it is, when will we get pass this issue of Racism.
