From what I recall, a radio announcer back in the day was working a DHS vs Minot HS football game. Minot's team was substantially bigger than DHS, who didn't have a nickname at the time. The announcer said something along the lines of "Minot's team makes Dickinson look like a team of midgets" and Dickinson upset them. They were known for a while as the Mighty Midgets, then became the Midgets. These were before the politically correct days, of course. Dickinson was the Coyotes at the time. But the midget name caught on and they gradually changed over to the Mighty Midgets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The anonymity of the ballot box makes it incredibly easy for people to vote their conscience (PC be damned) and I think we all know how over broad prohibitions based solely on one view of social injustice/inequality will fare. Kind of makes one wonder...how would the NCAA's policy - enacted broadly (can't remember if unanimous) by the Association's members - have fared in a popular vote in ANY of the individual jurisdictions where the voting members resided? Is there a single state, city, county, or precinct that would have supported it? Even in 'liberal' college towns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since horses were brought to North America by the white man in the 1500s? Or is my logic hampering my ability to see things from the viewpoint of the perpetually offended?

I was at the airport this weekend and my 5 year old looked up at me and said, "dad, if we didn't fly around the world, we could help reduce our own carbon footprint, save the rain forest, AND fire racist TSA agents all at once. And then President Sanders could sign an executive order providing free healthcare AND unicorns to all kids under the age of 10." He is so smart!

Just to clarify, if it is true, that dude is a POS and deserves to be fired. However, there is a 0.0% chance he didn't get fired if it actually happened. Has he been fired yet?

Again, if it's true, then this guy is a POS. But, I am very, very skeptical that he isn't fired. Especially in today's outrage culture, I would like to know how he's still employed.
