Goodbye Red Raiders

Just puts little red midget on your helmets and tweak the name a hair.

I’m sorry a red little person. If we’re being politically correct.

Native American Social Injustice? Unreal in high school sports.

SP has zero balls if they allow this to happen without an all out war. If they would take off their crying in the shower glasses they could see how awesome Lineberger is on a Friday. If anything I have always thought it glorified the culture and not made fun of it. It's truly pathetic we even have these discussions in this day and age. Soft ass parents who raised soft ass kids and now they hold positions of power. We drank from a hose pipe when we were kids and this is the result of having a purina filter in the kitchen. SAAAAAAFFFFFFFT!!! Done with my Ted talk for the morning.

What 02 says is all true. This is simply a case of outsiders trying to exert their higher brow influence. You know...they are all more educated and know better. You can tell this because of how well things are going in Detroit, NY state, the state of PA and the like. Things are so awesome up there they just had to run scared from there and come down here to educate us all on so many things.
Here is the thing. It ain't going away. Ain't no man or woman gonna come up to me and tell me what I will or won't say. Some have tried before. There are plenty of that type of us left in Belmont. Good luck to the purple haired blue politickers who rent a hovel in Belmont and want to eat in a restaurant with their dog pushing this. They are about to find out why Belmont has stayed the way it has for so long.

Definitely, as much crap as I give them that is as good a place to watch a football game as there is. They DO NOT make fun of the culture. On this issue I'd fight with them.

There is always one loud mouth woman causing trouble for everyone else.

Unbelievable. I'd love a good explanation as to how a sports team name, which has fans "CHEERING" the mascot's name is somehow a bad thing. I'll bite my tongue and refrain from what I really want to say on here.

 

[raider1959]

Proud to be a Red Raider and always will be!

 

[crestcharger02]

Crazy and should fight to keep the mascot.

Lady in the picture looked like a pretty mean run stuffer back in playing days.

Lol Her and about 10 of her buddies sitting right in middle of the visitors side.

And if they do change the mascot name. Which I’m against and hopefully doesn’t get changed. What mascot name would you want it to be

 

[crestcharger02]

Red Man Injuns.

 

[beamer24]

Rednecks

I had so much typed out but it's not worth the headache. Honestly though, if you are that offended by a mascot, just stay home. Turn off the TV, stay off of social media, better yet just turn off your internet. You will obviously find something that hurts your feelings and complain about it. Other than someone's feelings, the mascot is not causing any issues.

 

[Middle Sound Heel]

The same people who want to change mascot names will demand for it to be illegal for any human to operate a motor vehicle manually when full self driving is "perfected".

It is worth the fight though.... because if things like this are slid through, the next thing you know they will try to have men let into ladies rooms and ....wait....check that, hold on. Never mind.
