From a practical standpoint black sheep being labeled as bad makes perfect sense. In that case I wouldn't have considered "black=bad" from its usage on black sheep. Blacklist/whitelist has no defense though, though I doubt we would change it to goodlist/badlist anytime soon. Though those do sound more direct heh... (Texas, I'd say you're off the hook on this one)

It isn't our fault people decided to expand on the original concept that is for sure.
