I can see their point, but its somewhat silly. I don't think it should be removed.

But I'm not going to be outraged if they do. I don't really care, to be honest. College students can vote. If they want it out, might as well keep them happy.

I'm so old I remember when Stanford were the Indians. I especially liked that when Plunkett was their QB.

These young students need to get a life, focus on getting an education, and stop acting like overly sensitive puffballs.
I don't know a single Native American who objects to using the nickname "warriors" for team nicknames.
Same with Braves. These are honorable terms. Words of RESPECT. You don't call a coward a warrior or a brave.
Same thing with Tigers or Lions. These names were chosen precisely BECAUSE they represent strength, honor, pride, fierce battleskills.
It's NOT offensive at all to anyone but a creampuff.

Colonial is not as inspiring as (say) warrior, BUT, I reckon it was chosen to represent the determination, grit, pluckyness of the Colonials.
Twisting it into representing "white supremacy" is just trying to inject dissension where none should exist.

Dumb as hell.

I do think Dan Snyder needs to change the name of his team. It's a dictionary defined racial slur.

Wash U Creampuffs

Wash U Turnovers

Wash U Twinkies

Wash U Fruit Flambe

because desert is worth fighting for

Trump University Turncoats

Marquette Warriors FOREVAH!!!!!

Thank you, Bob.

Wow, twice in like 3 days that bob and I couldn't agree more.

Why does anyone care about the name so much? I couldn't care less about changing a name if people find it offensive. It's a silly debate to have.

oh no!! it must signify the end of the world is coming soon!!! LOL
