What about Notre Dame? Oh wait, we're white, never mind. Negative stereotypes and discrimination only work when you're not of European descent.
ETA - I could care less about any of it and think it's all a bunch of BS.

Do you ever wake up in the morning hoping that all of it imploded while you were asleep and things can get back to normal now?
Has anyone heard an actual Native American complain about the names of these sports teams?
A few years ago the University of Illinois had to get rid of their mascot of forever Chief Illiniwek for these same reasons.
You hear Harry Reid running his coc holster but that's about it.
Redskins need to fight this.
ETA: Exactly what kind of a world do we live in where Harry Reid can admonish anyone to "do the right thing" without getting struck by lighting? Like he's ever done the right thing in his whole life. Do the right thing. Eat shit and die you pinko commie bastard.

What about the NE Patriots, afterall it was just a bunch of white people that didn't want to pay England their fair share.

Every day. I feel every single minute of it. I want the country I grew up in back, whatever the f*** happened to make this happen I don't want. I'm mad and tired of being scared of what our government might do any single day or minute and not having enough clout to do a damn thing about it compared to millionaires who can make a phone call to lobbyists any time they want.

The Cracker Barrel should change its name as well, granted not a sports team, but I as a Caucasian find its name to be very demeaning . . .![]()

Once you open Pandora's box....
The fact that someone is so butt-hurt over a sports team using a reference that offends them....how big a pussy you gotta be...
