At first, I couldn't think of any, but then the "Fighting Irish" came to mind. I assume that's a predominantly "White" group. Celtics Knickerbockers (Knicks) refers to Dutch settlers and the pants they wore. Yankees, from when the term was originated was in reference to mostly white people (New England soldiers in the 18th century) Cavaliers were supporters of King Charles 49ers were gold miners and primarily white. Not exclusively though, although Chinese miners were often forced out. But there's controversy over certain place names in California where non-white miners typically mined. There's controversy over this place, although it previously had a more inflammatory name. There's also a Mormon Bar at Folsom Lake.

Teams should only be named after white people. (That's the correct stance, right?) Or animals. Sorry could not resist the sarcasm...
