It took the NCAA years of being offended (by a logo drawn by a Native American, with approval of the Spirit Lake Sioux Elders) to get enough lawyers together to make the University get rid of the logo. Nice of that bunch of pissants to be offended for people who were not offended (as if they were not 'smart' enough to take offense to something which was not derogatory in the first place).

Now the "Fighting Hawks". Just wait until the birdwatchers get a hold of that...

I went to UND. To those of us, who are NOT into PC, it will ALWAYS be the Fighting Sioux.
Many people who go to UND hockey games, wear jerseys with "Sioux" on them. Screw the PC crowd.
