I wrote a letter to the NCAA Executive Committee congratulating them on their initiative in discouraging schools from honoring such traits as integrity, bravery and honor in chossing injun nicknames. We do not need THOSE traits honored, I opined.

Some flunkie wrote me back, thanking me for my support. You would think someone associated with higher education would have a better understanding of, and appreciation for, satire and irony.

So I wrote back, and suggested that Florida State University, instead of calling themselves the Seminoles, should name themselves after a group that NOONE could admire. My suggestion: The Florida State University NCAA Executive Committees. Instead of the tomahawk chop, they could all lie supinely on their backs. Their hard core fans could simply have their spines removed.

I haven't heard back yet.

As a white American I am deeply offended by your callous, insensitive symbolism of my race! You obviously have not done the same amount of research on white people as the NCAA has done with Indians. Don't you dare call us crackers! On behalf of all whites I demand you retract your politically incorrect remarks or else I'll tell the NCAA! So there! (hehe)
