Change it to "The War of Northern Aggression."

Idiots. In the Greek sense of the term.

Here’s an idea. Just give up all sports. The wokeness is unbearable.

I didn’t know the war was fought to preserve slavery. The things you learn in school. No wonder they want to tear down statues of Lincoln.

In a related story, Guns and Roses will no longer sing the song Civil War and asks all fans to burn the 'Use Your Illusion II" CD in solidarity...

And any football player who played in the Civil War game, past or present, should have their academic degrees revoked.

If you're going to be woke, go real woke.

The only thing wrong about 1984 is the date.

As a Veteran who served during the cold war, and who has lost friends in the Middle East, I really get ticked when sports casters use the term “war” or “battle” do describe a GAME.

Anyone being shot dead? No.

Yes there may be the occasional injury that is career ending but I dont recall a whole lot of amputations or loss of sight or hearing.

Rename it the "Candy-ass Cup."

If you get bored with it, you can eat the candy.

How about a service that will expunge a person’s name from ever having attended a particular school, such as Oregon?
