Verghese leaving Green moved them up the ladder.

It's our team so we decided through our own little voting process.

To me, having grown up in an area with a large Asian population, 'Yellows' is nothing but a very insulting term.

Still a racist term, actually. :)

And we're not CW Yellow, we're CW Colts. :D So you're wrong on that one.

It's a colour, anyone who takes it any other way when used in this context is, quite frankly, an idiot. Worse than an idiot, a poor excuse for a human being.

CW Yellow. :)

It is a colour, but it's also a racist remark. Maybe not where you grew up, but it is where I grew up (Waitakere). Having said all of that, again, it is of no matter as we are the CW Colts regardless, a name chosen by our team and the name on the scorecards, our thread title, our uniforms and all other places of importance.

read my other post in the other thread, and yes yellow can be used as a racist remark here too, as can Red and Black, and those oceans hate being called Blue.

I'd prefer CW YELLOW!
