I think that's a great mascot name. I'd be proud to be on a team called “The Fighting Whities”.What's wrong with that?

Doesn't do it for me. I'm caucasian and DO NOT find this offensive.

“The Fighting Whities” If a white guy picked this name they would be in court already.

Before they complain, they ought to ask the tribes who team mascots are named after. I know the Utes of Utah have the tribal blessing to use that name as a mascot.

I think that this is great. I have thought that Caucasians have been too docile far to long.

I can't really say I'm offended. More power to 'em.

The motto should be "Everything is going to be all white", rather than "Every thang is gonna be all white". Remember, it wasn't white people who came up with Ebonics. We came up with all of that English grammer and stuff that isn't cool anymore.

Funny stuff.

It took me awhile to figure out that I'm supposed to feel insulted by this. What's wrong with me!?!?

They are too late....I believe Ole Miss already has a southern white guy as their mascot and nobody is offended.

This stupid stunt only points out how over-sensitive these folks are. Their stunt offends no one. How embarassing.

Hey, is there an email address we can use to congratulate them? I think we should send them some of these great slogans! And tell them how much we like it! Oh, and can we buy some t shirts?

Let's see, Vikings, Fighting Irish, White Sox(pretty much all white) Steelers, Cornhuskers, Yankees, Padres, Packers, Patriots,(at least some of whom had to be white)

One could go on and on but I hope the point has been made.

Hey, I'm an old white boy. I wanna be the mascot. I'd be there with my blue eyes on, my baseball cap oriented with the bill pointing forward, no earrings or nose rings, attired in my MCRGO sweatshirt, my shoes shined. I'd also have my tax forms showing the penalties I paid in taxes for the last 33 years of working to take care of nativehyphenamericans and africanhyphenamericans. I can't lose on this deal.

Whenever I'm introduced to someone who is black I tell them "My friends call me Whitey" It's a great ice breaker. Many of my friends are black but surprisingly, none of them want to call me whitey.
Go figure..
