Besides the exposure of a marketing snafu by Louisiana, it is an otherwise interesting article on the fallacy of mascot correctness.Quote:

It seems to me that schools should understand the pain their name selection places on a majority of Native Americans. They do not see it as an honor, as the Cajuns, Orangeman, and Irish see theirs with. Maybe because the Native Americans population were brought to near extinction by the Euro invasion. I would recommend these schools think about this and resolve to place these names in the past.
I would not try to force a school to do the above only that they try to walk in the moccicins of a defeated people so to speak.
That article is very interesting. I think people need to chill out and realize what we're talking about here... a frickin game. Why can't these groups of people see the mascot as a proud symbol of who they are instead of a mockery. Certainly, no school would choose a mascot that would mock itself. I wish people would just stop being such "pear shaped organs!" (I didn't use the other word, because I wouldn't want to offend anyone)
