GRAND FORKS, N.D. - Duke without the Blue Devil? Notre Dame without the Fighting Irish? Most students and alumni at those proud universities wouldn't dream of dropping those enduring symbols of school pride.

They should change it to this:

[relictele]

Another Pyrrhic victory for the ‘we know better’ crowd.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

This must come under the same brand of nonsense that says only black people can use the N-word.

[Tax-chick]

This is pathetic. The tribes would rather be thought of as the “Drunk, Unemployed, Meth-Head Sioux”? You’d think they would appreciate the memorial to their glory days.

I’m a twin and am hopping mad about Minnesota’s baseball team! :)

hey NCAA: how ‘bout checking out STFU?

Ridiculous.

The NCAA needs to move out of Indianapolis, Indiana.

[xjcsa]

Right. Where is NCAA headquarters located again? Oh yeah, Indianapolis, Indiana.

[albie]

It worked ok for 80 years, now suddenly, it’s not ok.

[70th Division]

NCAA= Not Consistant About Anything.

[xjcsa]

Wow, we think a LOT alike...scary...

If you don't like it here then go back to Asia where you came from.

[Paladin2]

I’d Sioux ‘em.

[Gene Eric]

The Left continuing to rub out any and all symbolic and honorary references to the American Indian.

[sodpoodle]

Sioux stupid!!!

[Sax]

Hey NCAA! Come get some.

[Paladin2]

Most of the time, if I post stuff like that and do a Google search on it, I find I'm the ONLY one in the world doing so.

It's good to have some backup ;-)

I’m so sick of the NCAA....they run college football like their very own fiefdom....they selectively punish and then they come out with crap like this....WHO CARES WHAT A TEAMS MASCOT IS!!!!
