If using an Indian name for a school symbol is rascist how about all the Indian names that are used for states, cities, towns, landmarks, etc.  For instance, Dakota is the name of a Souix Indian tribe.  Does that mean that if the Souix Indians object, the names of North and South Dakota will have to change.  The same can be said for other states as well.  Take Illinois, their name is also the name of an Indian tribe.  As far as schools and universities are concerned, if the Fighting Souix is a problem how about the Fighting Illini?

I guess the U of Minnesota is off the hook since their sport teams are named after a rodent.

The fewer white people that are involved in something means that something is more diverse.

The viking is a little creepy. I don’t think the Native American Indian is offensive at all. I think it is kind of cool. AND I am a Creek Indian. So I am not sure why that would be offensive???

So are they going to become the University of North Dakota Crybabies?

That’s probably offensive to babies though.

What about that green color of the uniform? That’s offensive to colorblind people.

What about football? That’s offensive to the disabled or the “differently abled”.

Why does my spell checker highlight the “abled” word above as a misspelling? Again, that’s offensive to the differently abled.

I find that offensive.

What’s going to happen to US industry when the global warming extremists like John McCain double the price of electricity?  I would think all these factories will close and set up in countries where they aren’t scared of technology.

Crybaby!!

I’m telling.

Hell, I’m suing.

You didn’t even go to UND.

So?  Doc called me a crybaby.  I’m offended.

That’s all I need.  Someone get me the ACLU on the phone.  My right not to be offended has been violated.

Actually, Rob, I was responding to Whistlers post.  However if you feel left out being impartial like I am..

Can anybody dig up the ethnicity of the UND group in question?  Do they even have any genetic linkage to native americans?  (I am 1/256 Navaho) Sounds like a bunch of pussys from Minneapolis.

The UND pres should change the name to the PUSSYWILLOWS and use that group’s president’s portrait as the new mascot.

I’m guessing “pasty white liberal.”

I don’t know the current makeup of the group but my impression has been that aside from a few indian faculty members with a grudge it’s been guilty white liberals.

Let’s just say that without the press giving them undeserved attention nobody would know who they were.

DocDave, Rob never attended UND so he’s got no right to be called a crybaby.  OF course that offends me.

whistler, as long as you are offended, my day is made.  As for Rob, I didn’t want to be accused of discriminating.  Crybabies…

As far as that group of NDU busybodies, I agree that they have to be white liberals who are attempting to right a bogus wrong.

It would be P.C. if that were the indian from the Village People. Put a pink feather in his bonnet.

While I understand people are fed up with the notion that the NCAA is just being PC, could it also be that the UND students who nominated them are helping the NCAA to stop the use of Native American Imagery and to put a big dent in the UND’s claim to sue the NCAA?

Things that make you say “hum.”

Since the great majority of the students and community (and probably the faculty) support the name and the lawsuit then the views of this little group really shouldn’t matter should it?
