Not racist because the Harlem Globetrotters were originally all white.

Another white guy in an afro wig - not at all racist!

And geyser, you might be right. So in THAT fucking case, why is he wearing an AFRO WIG?

DamosA, I was not right; it was a joke. A teevee-related joke. Apparently you didn't waste a chunk of your childhood watching too many Saturday Night Live reruns like I did.
Nevertheless, RIP Phil Hartman.

I think Damos just got successfully trolled. That's so meta!

@DamosA - Yes, we all do. That's why he referenced an SNL skit.
