Thanks! You too brother!

Happy 4th to everyone!!

Right back at you all!

I wonder if the Indians from India are offended. They would be if they had a caricature of a brown skinned person with a Turban grinning on a uniform. This is an ugly mental picture, isn't it? And I'll cop to not being fond of Chief Wahoo. What makes the Minnesota Vikings' mascot okay, in contrast?

You first misconception is that you think people are "offennded" . People are motivated not offended. What exactly motivates them, then?

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks this way. By way of introduction... I'm a huge M's fan, a growing Stanford Cardinal and Seahawks fan, and born and raised in Seattle. I didn't follow sports much in my growing-up years, but went to college in 2001 - the M's wins total posted daily on ...
