I played the clip readying myself for the outrage I'd fly to the comment section to express, but I had to play the clip back several times before deciding I didn't know what the guy said, and ...really... it makes more sense that he might have said "college," rather than "colored," for a couple reasons: First, at 60 years old, he's not completely out of sync with social normals, even if he is with Fox. Second, it makes a degree of sense in some contexts, when speaking about an organization, to qualify the org as professional or collegiate. So, again, in this case, it's reasonable to believe that unclear word is "college," rather than "colored." Devil's advocate though, what if he did say "colored"?
