In my lifetime, people were offended by people with different skin tones showing affection to each other.
In my lifetime, people were offended by people of the same gender being in love. People literally got away with murder by using the "gay panic" defense.
In my lifetime, people were so scared of certain religions and genders, that they wouldn't allow them on their golf courses.
In my lifetime, people were outraged by The Simpsons, the song "Hot for Teacher", the Beastie Boys, The Life of Brian, metal music, D&D, video games...I could go on but by the time I finish the list, their direct philosophical descendants will have come up with 12 more things to be offended by.
In my lifetime, people started the Great 1980's Satanic Panic.
etc.
So, no, Kevin, this is not the first pussy generation. I mean, nobody is going to collapse from the vapors if somebody says "leg" instead of "limb" nowadays like they did in Victorian times - or put somebody in jail for wearing a beard (see Joseph Palmer.)
that's not the same thing bro ur reaching get urself one of those grabber things that fat people use to pick up dropped office supplies

No, it'll be the NDSU Yellow '90s and the UND Green 1883s ... colors and numbers.

As long as it's not something lame and nonsensical like the "Fighting Hawks."
Then again, those aspects suit UND very well.
Re: Bill to keep Sioux nickname
Why do the Hawks have to be fighting? Can't they all just get along?

This is OFFICIALLY INSANE. Taking this to the logical extreme, no animal will be acceptable. What will be left?
