Had a conversion today with a coworker about the names of sporting teams so this has been on my mind...

The following is my opinion and my opinion only; and I am not here to sway opinions for I am not being paid enough to do such. When a team name is chosen, the name is chosen from a position of strength - the name is to invoke fear and respect in the hearts of the enemy. 'Our team is not to be messed with for we shall destroy your weak and feeble team.' A team name is not chosen to be a laughingstock nor is it chosen to show weakness...

So my opinion is that one should take pride in having some recognition that your people are winners, they are brave, strong, fierce, warriors who shall be triumphant...

I like the imagery, I do not wish this to be forgotten. There should be constant reminds of one's heritage present around this here globe. The past should not be buried within museums, it should be out there and in yer face...

Some folks should just get over themselves, if you're offended you have every right to be, but if you start force feeding me your opinions, I will have a problem with that. In the profound words of Rush 'Conform or be cast out'. In all honestly I would prefer to be cast out...

For those who don't know me on a personal basis, my high cheekbones are a product of my N8V Ancestry...

So concludes this rant whilst I occupy the Sittin' Spot in my usual place of escape...
