You don't hear the Chicago Blackhawks getting too much grief over their logo because it is more tasteful than that hideously grinning logo the Indians use. Here is a history of the Indians logo, and maybe either go with the C or go with the Indian with the headdress like the one in the upper right. The second from the right looks like a poor imitation of the Blackhawk logo. I will miss Chief Wahoo, and still have hats with his logo on it. 1 Quote

The Chicago Blackhawks are on the SJW hit list. Quote

But its not an Indian Warrior, just like the Braves of Bradley there is no Indian intent. Why isn't the KC Chiefs on the hit list? Quote

They went after little UND, so I don't think the overall profile of the team will dictate whether or not a team is targeted. Particularly in the social media world we now live in. And a slight correction, baseball is America's "past-its-time". Quote

SiouxVolley Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 San Diego St student reps voted 14-12 to keep the Aztec name. Ten dissenters resigned their positions in protest against the evil rascist name. Quote

Hopefully SDSU can find ten students with some COMMON EFFING SENSE to take their place. http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/opinion/the-conversation/sd-how-will-sdsu-vote-on-the-aztec-warrior-20170419-htmlstory.html Interesting video of the vote - fast-forward to the end after the votes are tallied. Good stuff. 1 Quote
BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 The vote can be in favor to keep it over and over, but in these situations, once the vote goes the other way, it's over for good. 1 Quote

Ten dissenters resigned their positions in protest against the evil rascist name. Took my family to a small restaurant in Old Town before the San Diego State game in 2012. An older woman (late 60's, early 70's) was sitting next to our table when we sat down She took one look at my eight year old son's shirt with a very large Sioux logo and started to "huff and puff" and then gave me the evil eye and walked out. It was very hilarious. 1 Quote

Love the one woman getting up to the podium at the end and barking "DO YOUR JOB!" at the committee members. They did. Just because the vote didn't go your way doesn't mean they didn't consider your objections. But, welcome to the new America - where you can't have a different opinion than the mob. Quote
