Nice loving topic name, like honestly, you could of at least loving hinted at this being a racial issue, not some dumb ass smiley. And by your post, it seems like you are the tribal one. By the looks of it, he doesn't seriously think he is cool for the lone reason he is black, he is just being humorous. It's a joke that he said he likes the Raiders because he's black, he loving said he was from Oakland. You are just taking him too seriously, learn how to laugh with him, or don't be his friend.
