See how stupid that sounds, just like this argument. Why won't this non issue just go away. As long as the owner doesn't care, the name sticks and if you don't like that get a helmet cause life sucks
They've already changed the name of the school where my wife went to college. The Northeast Indians are now the University of Louisiana at Monroe (ULM) Warhawks. It pissed me off.

ULM's name change is bull, same goes for St John's redmen to red storm seriously .... sure there is more just can't think of them. The way its going, how long before the Saints become the gators, jazz, parade, IDK just pick another part of New Orelans culture and run with it

Re: Washington Warriors?

Unofficially they have, the Colonel has not been their logo for years now. Its just been the red script "Ole Miss". The directors of the school want the change but the student body has to vote on a change and don't want it haha.

At least that's what I've been told by a cousin that is in school there.

The owner would definitely care if it were the Washington Kikes.

Re: Washington Warriors?

I am tired of the term "native American" being used exclusively for indians. My ancestors are not from here but I sure as hell am, and like most people I work and pay taxes. I don't live off of some government trust fund, and I don't leech off of idiots who gamble all their money away at these casino's that certain indians own.

But you know what? There is no law against what Indians are doing, so we just let them be. Why then do the rest of us have to act like we don't belong here, and everything we do requires permission from the "native american" community? I'm not at all hurt by what they do, I simply find those who complain about everything to be hypocritical.

Quit feeling sorry for yourselves over something that never happened to you. Do you realize that long before there were black slaves and Pilgrims vs. Indians, there people of all colors being tortured, enslaved and killed over their faith, lack of wealth, or just because some crazy emperor wanted to entertain himself by pitting humans against ravenous animals?

I don't feel sorry for myself because of what my ancestors went through. Why should anyone else? Get over it.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
