Finally a site that tells you if you’re racist or not. Of course, if you have to ask, you probably are. The guy behind it got a wicked sense of humour and I especially like his answer to the white supremacists who just found the site:
Now, I just wanted to say that, by and large, [...]

Our House … In the Middle of a Slump.
Made for Italia ‘90, but it works for every football tournament.
