We have gone WAY to far at being PC!

For years it has been getting worse and worse. Mel Brooks said that today, there was no way that Blazzing Saddles could be made, because of it's use of the "N" word.

Now this!

http://msn.foxsports.com/collegefootball/story/utah-school-board-rejects-cougar-mascot-for-being-potentially-offensive-011812

Future students at a Utah high school had their choice of mascot — a cougar — rejected by the school district because it could be seen as offensive to older women.

I know a lot of older women.(OK, they aren't older, they are my age, 54) that wouldn't resent being called a "Cougar"!

Yeah a world where movies like Human Centipede exist has a problem with being too "PC"

this is the administration of one school making a stupid decision that makes no sense. also what you posted is just mel brooks' opinion and he should probably have one of his great-great-great grandchildren pick him up a chappelle's show DVD some time.

Ya think? Did you see they wanted to build a mosque at ground zero?

yeah i remember that: the PC crybabies felt that the constitutional rights of a private land owner should be trampled all over because someone's feelings might have been hurt by the mere existence of a place of worship sort of close to ground zero in a building that used to be a burlington coat factory. what of it?

if you have a problem with park 51 or whatever it was called, you have a problem with the first amendment.

    • I hate to burst anyones bubble but this guy played 188 total defensive snaps in three years but 802 special teams snaps. If we do kick the tires, it's probably gonna be for that latter part.
    • I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.
