The was a great segment on the Native American/sports debate a couple of years ago on HBO Real Sports.
At that time it was reported that only 8 percent of Native Americans did not like seeing schools/teams use the names and likenesses. That small group was led by former Olympian Billy Mills. It seems like the vocal minority is winning out. Just today the University of North Dakota facing a state referendum announced that they were defying the NCAA ruling and were returning the the name "Fighting Sioux." I have no dog in the fight, I live in a state where we revere and love to call swine on the gridiron (though I was an Arkansas Tech Wonderboy in college) and being of Irish decent I have always liked Notre Dame football. |
