lo country Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I have been a fan a long time. Never even noticed it. I guess when you are looking, you can always find something. All I saw was some fat AF fingers. But that's just me. 2 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 So..if we start saying that other teams mascots are doing something "racist" they will change too? Also, lots of fans even on this site right now are going to have to pretend to be fake happy about this. 2 2 Quote Link to comment

NoLongerN Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 It all gives me a good chuckle. I was called out recently by some white folks for referring to my wife as a nice gal. I grew up in Omaha and had lots of family in Omaha, Lincoln and Iowa [obviously, lots of farmers]. Everyone I knew used "gal" to refer to a girl. Well, I guess that term refers to a black slave and shows ownership and branding [as in the mark you put on a cow], according to them. My Dad was a beef selector with IGA, I never heard of that term relating to this. I don't know, maybe it does. Whatever, all I know now is that I'm a racist. It doesn't matter that my wife is black, as I used the term "gal" in a conversation. I have two black sons as well [but I'm a racist]. Ha ha. 1 1 4 Quote Link to comment

Cdog923 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 It stinks that you have to account for the lowest common denominators in society with something like this, but it undoubtably looks better now. 6 1 Quote Link to comment

Decoy73 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 When we get good again, they should change Herbie to flipping the bird. Who else is buying that shirt? 1 3 Quote Link to comment
