I'll never forget the infamous quote of former Minnesota Twins owner Calvin Griffith. When asked why he moved his team from Washington, D.C. (they were formerly the Washington Senators), he explained:

"I'll tell you why we came to Minnesota. It was when we found out you only had 15,000 blacks here. Black people don't go to ballgames, but they'll fill up a rassling ring and put up such a chant it'll scare you to death. We came here because you've got good, hardworking white people here."

Time to move the team to Vermont, I guess. LOL.
