As the NCAA continues its crackdown on the vital issues, it does so in its usual coherent, logical and reasonable manner. Especially if you aren’t a D-1 BCS school.
The NCAA has denied William & Mary’s appeal of a ruling that prohibits it from using its logo showing two Indian feathers at NCAA championship events or from hosting NCAA Tournament games where the logo would be displayed.
The news came Thursday in a letter from the NCAA Executive Committee, affirming a May decision that the green and gold logo is hostile or offensive to American Indians.
In that same ruling, the NCAA said William & Mary’s nickname, the Tribe, was not necessarily abusive, hostile or offensive, and therefore still could be used.
Oooo-kaaayyyy. This is the offending logo (at least most of it).
Yeah, that’s one to piss off people.
What a f-ing joke. C’mon, if the NCAA was remotely serious about their GD policy then they’d move the hell fwd and eliminate these obscenities courtesy of, no doubt, FSU:
Chief Illini attends games (he is Indian), but if this guy is even loosely affiliated with any tribe besides Cracker White Caucasian, I’ll eat my hat:
Behold The Florida State Seminole

Classy…I found some other good ones, as well; dig the spears — there’s positively nothing wrong with these; nothing inflammatory here: Florida State Seminoles (FSU) Black Mirror Team Logo License Plate …. See:

How ‘bout something for dear ol’ ma while you’re at it:
Florida State Seminoles (FSU) Gold “FSU MOM” Mirror License Plate …. See: link to images.footballfanatics.com
Of course, due to the popularity and political might behind this southern institution, the taking of opponents “scalps†(under the guise of “savagesâ€) wearing feathered head gear is AOK. …right?
William & Mary’s logo is sissy-sober in comparison…
In Ref to picking on the little fellas: NCAA upholds ruling against William & Mary logo — “As the NCAA continues its crackdown on the vital issues, it does so in its USUAL COHERENT, LOGICAL AND REASONABLE MANNER.†Good line, Chas:

Not sure about this, but I think those feather’s, actually come from a completely different species called “birds”. Last I had checked, birds did not have the intelligence to bring a lawsuit against the NCAA/William & Mary for using discarded plumage to motivate their athletes.
It is an ugly logo anyway, but even so, its ridiculous that they have to change it.
Also, I’m Catholic, and I find their use of the name Mary to be offensive. Stop It! People are being offended!
disturbing….and stupid…
