If "Fighting Sioux" offends American Indians (yes, I deliberately used that old-fogey term), then with tongue firmly inserted in check, I'd propose a rename to:

"Pacifistic Limp-wristed Surrendering Sioux-Wussies"

I mean, if "fighting" is so offensive, then the exact oppposite would be honorable, no?

I guess I’m missing it. How is the term, “Fighting Sioux” offensive? Now, if they were named say, the “Sissy Sioux”, then I might understand it.
