"NCAA upholds Fighting Sioux as abusive nickname" (North Dakota)
- As seen in todays USA Today
Apparently appeals we're granted to Florida State, Utah & Central Michigan.
PETA has now asked that the Unirsity of South Carolina "Game Cocks" change their name as it promotes animal cruelty.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish however got a pass.......
What's next.........PC taken to far here?
Mr Real Smith:
There was a thread that was started last year about great swimmers from the past. Someone brought up Wade King from South Carolina, who took second in the NCAA Div I championships in the 100 fly in 1988 and 1989 to the first place winner Jay Mortensen from Stanford. In fact I believe Sam Perry works with Jay now or did last year. Anyway, Wade used to drive around with a South Carolina bumper sticker on his vehicle that read "you can't lick our cocks" with a picture of the masot in school colors. I think for this reason they should change the mascot.
