The majority of our team and GW's team are players from African descent and you guys are laughing and giggling about naming teams Slave Owners.

Are you out of your mind? Fuck off.

Right now, I think of them as the George Washington Bishops. After he graduates, they'll need another prolific player to nickname themselves after.

For historical teams, they could go with the following:

Sonny Hollands.
Dares
Yutas
Garinos
Mensah-Bonsus

Pretty hard not to offend that guy :D

In all seriousness, what is wrong with with honoring the birth of this great nation with a reference to the original 13 colonies? There's a certain percentage of college kids that are probably in a perpetual state of being offended by everything that has to do with our history, do we always have to appease them and validate their tantrums? I third IV's take, so damn stupid.

The thing is that you are not offending me. I am sticking up and supporting the young black men and women on our athletic teams that have to deal with tone deaf old men who have no filter and have zero understanding of their privilege. I will continue to be a leader, and not a follower. Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.

Pretty sure you can honor the birth of this nation without glorifying colonialism. Maybe I've missed it, but I don't think college kids are always getting what they want, even though it's probably a good strategy for a university to give its students want they want (within reason).

It has been nice to see you being a leader in admitting you were wrong about 69MG. Oh, wait. Nevermind.

Sent you a PM... Scoopy has finally admitted his error and apologized to you (and edited his posts). It was in the Mullins Madness 2022 thread.
