Enough with the PC bullshit already, why is everyone in this world so friggin sensitive. Sure Redskins might be a little rough but the nicknames or Illini, or Seminoles or Chiefs what the hell is wrong with any of those names or characatures. Is there really any negative connotation now with these names? How many people walk around see a Native American and think to themselves damn there's a Redskin or a Redman? The word Yankee had a negative connotation for much of the country during the Civil War, should they be renamed. And as for characatures and mascots, aren't all mascots a little ridiculous looking? Have you seen the USC Trojan, or the Minnesota Vikings mascot? Both don't where one of those giant Barney costumes but both look absolutely ridiculous. So should people of Modern Day Turkey or Modern Day Nordic region dial up the NCAA and NFL and file complaints? Should men in Massachusetts with premature ejaculation problems protest the nickname Minutemen because it hurts their feelings? Don't you think that this kid that gets to play Chief Illinewek is of Native American descent himself and gets to benefit from this position with a free ride to school, whats wrong with that?
If we're going to be PC why don't we represent all cultures in mascot names. I mean have you ever seen a black mascot, or an asian mascot. Nope they're all white. Woah I don't know if I should accept this. I think we need to diversify our mascots.
Or we should just shut up, accept the friggin traditions and not bitch and moan about something that makes no difference at all.

Did you know that if you go to Duke and hire a stripper, and she's black, and she says you raped her, that means you did it? Despite the fact she has 6 dudes worth of semen in her that doesn't match any of her accusers?
I feel as though the Notre Dame fighting Irish should change their mascot because I'm Irish and that paints a negative connotation toward us micks.
Fuck that.
