lmao, wow, I really hate racist shit like that, but that was funny. still its fucked up.
But yes, Lawrence o donnel had a great point on this and synder's point of view.
the fact is, it's very offensive. but you know what, I'm the one that could care less about the name, but that's not even the point, its the principle, period. just don't have names like that, there was never a reason to in the first place. except to celebrate racism which is what they've been doing for 81 years, and this entire western hemisphere for 521 years, since Columbus.
Furthermore, in synder's reasoning to keep the name, he said the original coach and 4 starters were native americans. cool, then show some respect.
he said, also it is to celebrate native American history. ok then why not tell some? let's start with the iruqois confederacy right there in Washington who wrote "the great law of peace" in the 12th century, the manuscript which later became the main article that "the founding fathers" based the constitution on. this fact also was recognized under the Reagan administration in 1986.
How about, also that Native Americans at Carlisle in the early 1900's established the passing game, before that it was strictly hand off's and tosses.
I could go on. if they were sincere about what they say, they would act on it, and change the name and celebrate true history.
also, I love the subtle things Obama does, like saying "if it was offending a sizeable group of people, I would think about changing it." He always sticks up for righteousness.
