Yeah, the Pittsburgh Steelers make steelworkers look like gum-chompin' dirty miners.

The Chicago Cubs are unfair to small furry young bears.

The Dallas Cowboys dishonor those who fought and died to steal land from the Native Americans.

The Purdue Boilermakers make a mockery of shot glasses dropped into beer mugs.

Don't even get me started on the Trojans.

(I'm part Shawnee and not offended by American Indian imagery. It doesn't affect me or how I feel about my heritage, nor do I think it promotes hate and intolerance to Native Americans. That was all accomplished a long time ago. I say get over it.)
