[NU Sports] No more Sweet Sioux Tomahawk

[Roy Lamberton]

The difference is that most groups don't have advocates who take offense at
everything, AND most groups are proud to lend their name to a college's
sports.

I think the individual groups [tribes] of American Indians should be allowed
to license their tribal name to a team without the interference of the PC
crowd.

Go Cats 
Beat the Illini (if we're allowed to express violence now)

<Well I guess since Troy doesnt exist anymore  there  probably aren't any
descendants to offend--(At least the Troy that the USC boys are named for
anyhow)

But there are lumberjacks, cowboys, Norse, patriots, diplomats, friars,
Irish, statesmen, etc. etc. etc.
