Jeffrey Armstrong+FollowColts announcer’s nickname for QB sparks debateA nickname meant to add some fun to the Colts’ preseason broadcast ended up causing a stir. When backup quarterback Jason Bean took the field, analyst Rick Venturi repeatedly called him “Beaner”—apparently unaware of the term’s offensive history.

How do you feel about local sports culture and the nicknames that come with it? Where should the line be drawn? #Sports #Football #Colts149Share
