You people act like this is the first time that a team or school has changed their name. Take a look at ULM or Syracuse. This isn't earth shattering news.

Spiders was the name of their National League team.

The current team has been called the Blues, Naps, Bronchos, and Rustlers (when they were in Grand Rapids).

Who gives a shite if they're offended. Being "offended" is the most bullshite term ever. It's just an Indian face, it's not a racist picture or depicting any form of racism. Let them keep it. It's a badass logo

This issue offends nobody more than the people who oppose a logo change. The predictable meltdown in this thread is proof.

They're changing the logo because it's racist. Big deal.

Personally, I always find it funny when average dudes dresses up in redface for sporting events. Only because I hope that they run into an awkward moment like this guy.

They used to be called the Spiders, and that name would be better than any sports team ever.

There's already plenty of teams with various types of white people as mascots

Fighting Irish
Demon Deacons
Rebels
Buccaneers/ Pirates
Patriots
Cornhuskers
Mountaineers
etc..

Some of those are offensive stereotypes but nobody cares about that

Ummm, you realize a black/asian/indian person can be a cornhusker, or a pirate, or a mountaineer etc etc. Those actually have nothing to do with race


Now, I hate the PC crowd I was just pointing out the differences in your post

But it works damn well on the poliboard with the anti-gay folks. So keep it up, sir.

I am offended by the Patriots' portrayal of a white man on their helmets.

Kind of clever to avoid the Ole Miss nickname (Which some OM fans are hellbent on telling you the actual history of Reb). I feel like OM get's a pass on them being racist because everyone loves beating that deadhorse.

I'll never forget when Spencer Hall made fun of the recruitment of Laquen Treadwell to OM. "How the hell did a kid from the southside of Chicago end up in Oxford? Because every kid growing up in Chicago is born whistling Dixie and wanting to be a rebel."

In the same manner that "I know you are, but what am I?" is a legitimate response to an accusation, you are 100% correct.

But again, I'm really not hating. It's effective based on the responses you generate. I say keep it up
