BTW, what is your favorite Law School? I never saw your answer to that DUMB last night.

Also, if a city has a stadium that is used by a team with the name of Angels, and "angels" is written on the side of the publicly owned building, how much more likely is it to have that Name sued than if the name were "Demons."

You know there were a lot of politically incorrect mascots when I was growing up. I know a lot of schools have had to change mascots because they "offended" the INDIANS. There was one school that I recall that had a mascot of the CRUSADERS and the school emblem had a 12th century crusader complete with a sword and a CROSS on the shield and on the battle uniform. I believe they even had shields with crosses on their football helmets. Can you imagine that today?

Geez back then nobody complained at all. My wife went to a school whose mascot was "The Saints" and their school theme song was "When the saints go marching in."

It was an innocent time and nobody complained. Now everyone is offended at everything.
