Like you just pretend reality isn't happening all around you and all the FH logos you see are part of some alternate world that you're dropping by in?

The Sicatoka Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 You do realize that you refute yourself by actually casting in the pieces to make the N. To put in those pieces your mind had to have conceptualized the N in there. Thus, you did see an N. Ergo, that's an N. Other stylized Ns. 1 Quote

Siouxperfan7 Posted May 16, 2018 Author Posted May 16, 2018 There are many that feel that the Fighting Sioux name and logo was never offensive, and that people that thought it was should just move on because what is offensive to some isn't always the case for others. But now, some of those same people are saying that they take offense to the Fighting Hawks name and logo because they thing it sucks. Obviously different reasons for being offended by each logo, but the mindset is the same. If you bitched and moaned about the PC idiots at the NCAA that tried to tell you that you should be offended by the Sioux name and logo yet now bitch and moan that the new name and logo is offensive....you might be a hypocrite. 1 Quote
