New York Giants is offensive. It is discriminatory against smaller people. That name should be changed to New York Inclusives so everyone can feel part of the experience.

Good point about the Giants.

You could take just about any team nickname, and find something offensive about it. And people with too much time on their hands, and too much liberal theology in their minds, will eventually try to get other teams to change names. It won’t stop with Indian nicknames.

“New York Giants is offensive. It is discriminatory against smaller people.”

*****

Would that be “vertically challenged people” or “people of different vertical abilities?”

Don’t want to be accused of heightism when discussing munchkins, midgets, dwarves, leprechauns, Robert Reich, and the like.

There probably IS at least one Fringe Group actively working to get the Giants to change their name To The New York Dwarves...
