Z, > They weren't tributes. Back when they were named, they were supposed to be represent strong, scary figures like "Pirates" or "Devils." Then I guess you would have no trouble renaming any team that has "devil" in the name, given how that might offend some Christians? Oh wait, the rules of PC doesn't apply to Christians ... By the way, "strong scary figures" goes right along with the warrior gridiron thing. Why should that be offensive to anyone? Unless you prefer, for example, renaming the 49ers to the "San Francisco Poodles"? > Americans killed 98% of them. It's offensive. 98% is a clear exaggeration and a red herring. By the way, I hear the white man killed 100% of the Aztecs. Maybe SDSU should rename their mascot. The bottom line is that political correctness has done more to spread INTOLERANCE than anything else. You cannot deny this. Tenchusatsu
