And they worked hard and they sent their kids to school and a few generations later they saw the drunken leprechaun as a fun reminder of who they were and what they had overcome.
Begorrah! What a concept!

Soon only trees and colors will be allowed as school nicknames.

Looks like the Stanford Cardinal killed two birds with one stone.

I agree.
Have always thought it should be Farting Irish.

Do the Irish fricking care?..No..I am one and I fricking fight. So fight me.
We are not some weak, whiney minority who needs whitey to protect us. I want a football team mascot named after me dammit. Tell this bitch to go SJW on another group and STFIDB.

The Irish people aren’t going to care. Because they aren’t pussies

People will finally be able to start living their lives once the Fighting Irish nickname is cancelled. Society will flourish, nations will find peace, and all of life's mysteries will be solved.

As a Catholic and coming from an Irish Immigrant family a couple hundred years ago...
We. Don't. Care.
Bingo that. I have a lot of Irish in me and I've been drinking all night. Since I've been working on tax issues, I would kinda go for a fight right about now.

As a descendant of Irish immigrants and a practicing Catholic, I actually like the Notre Dame mascot. It’s fun.

thought it was a given that the Irish always get drunk and want to fight?...
I’m proud of that aspect of my Scot-Irish lineage

I know a guy who went to Notre Dame and saw him advocating for the change of street names in New Orleans on Facebook. I’m not a prog, but I hope this is a fight they win.

Serious question, how long before they come for LSU and “Fighting Tigers”?

I hope soon, can’t wait for those fireworks. May be the thing that finally gets the
Universities leadership flushed down the toilet.

I’m worried about LSU Fighting Tigers as well ...

In short, Morrison argues that, in spite of many people embracing the Fighting Irish moniker, it’s rooted in negative stereotypes of Catholics and immigrants. He also gives historical context: Irish people once were looked at in the U.S. with the same prejudice that other minority groups are today. Thus, stereotypes were born. As one can see from the aforementioned professional franchises, there’s a long history of those in this country, and now, people are trying to undo what their forefathers did.
Notre Dame Media Darlings would probably be sexist.
