Politically incorrect team names

Posted: December 14, 2014 at 8:45 pm

The debates about the name of the Washington Redskins and the team logo arent going away anytime soon. In fact, regardless of what happens with that franchise, people are going to constantly be complaining about other team names, finding something offensive. Often times, they gasp at straws in search of something to be offended by.

For example, a couple years, students at a high school in Utah voted on the Cougars as their mascot, only to have it rejected by the school board who said the name is offensive to middle-aged women. Yeah, Im so sure thats exactly what a group of 14-18 year old boys on the football team were naming themselves after. Its so ridiculous and couldnt be more obvious that they were naming themselves after the animal.

Perhaps we should just throw out animal names altogether. If someones offended by the name cougars, surely there plenty of things to find offensive about other animal team names. Maybe the animal rights activists will complain about all the animal team names before too long.

Many animals are violent, and violence isnt a message we want to send to our youth. Just imagine how much more peaceful this world would be if young fans in Detroit gathered together to watched their beloved Detroit Dandelions.

Violence represented in the name is the reason the Washington Bullets changed their name to the Washington Wizards. When you think about it, the name Wizards might not be such a great idea either because they use witchcraft and things of that nature which we should all steer away from, and in a way, that could fall under our next category: religion.

In todays world where we have to be so politically correct and careful not to offend someone by forcing our beliefs and our religion onto others, perhaps we should get rid of names that might imply theres a higher power, good or bad. So Angels, Devils, (and anything with the word Devils such as Sun Devils, Blue Devils) Demons, Saints, Padres and others have to go.

So now weve eliminated teams with names representing animals, violence, race and religion so whats next? What about team names which represent natural disasters? Millions of people have suffered loss due to Hurricanes, tornadoes, lightning strikes and so on and we dont want sports to serve as a memory for such tragic times so those names should probably be gone as well.

Names of different people groups ought to be eliminated as well. Most of the Houston Texans arent real Texans. Its not nice to call someone a Canadian if theyre not one so the NHLs Montreal Canadiens should also find a new name and the same goes with the Yankees.

People group names can also fall under the violence category. Cowboys had guns. Pirates, vikings and buccaneers were extremely violent.

Im sure there are a number of teams that come to your head that dont necessarily fall under these categories but if theres any question about how their names might be offensive, we probably shouldnt use them.

Stella Young spoke with 'searing honesty'

Posted: December 9, 2014 at 5:42 am

Stella Young was a diminutive comedian whose "searing honesty" made her a giant of disability advocacy.

Politicians, disability support groups and others paused on Monday to remember the feisty 32-year-old who labelled herself a "proud crip" and who used humour to challenge Australians to think differently.

Young passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, and a private funeral is being planned.

Her former employer, ABC Managing Director Mark Scott, said Young's advocacy liberated Australians to have a more frank and honest conversation about the issues people with disability faced, and the kind of support they needed.

"She spoke and wrote with a searing honesty and ... gave us insight into the lives of people with disabilities in a way that I don't think we'd really experienced before."

Young was the outspoken editor of the ABC's Ramp Up website, which recently ran out of funding.

"We set up that website with special government funding and that funding didn't continue ... but we kept an engagement with Stella because we knew what an important figure she had become," Mr Scott said.

She was due to record more ABC radio this week.

Political leaders joined in paying tribute to the comedian, who railed against the notion that disabled people were an inspiration.

"Stella dreamt of a society where people with a disability who studied, worked and achieved great things were conventional, even ordinary," Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews said.

Raptors lost some class as result of Bernier incident: DiManno

Posted: at 5:42 am

In politically incorrect language, Jonathan Bernier may very well be the sports version of an idiot savant.

Brilliant at the thing he does but obtuse oblivious about stuff thats widely known to everybody else.

This is an affliction not uncommon among elite athletes, who grow up so intently focused on themselves the drive to succeed, where 99.9 per cent fail that the rest of the world slides right by. Its a kind of blinkered detachment. Many live in a bubble un-penetrated by matters of substance.

That said, Bernier is a nice guy, a kind person from what Ive seen in the dressing room, soft-spoken and still not entirely adept in English.

What the Toronto Raptors did to him over the weekend however inadvertently was just plain rotten.

His blunder on the red carpet last Friday was cringe-inducing, yet spontaneous.

Their role in the affair was careless.

The No. 1 Maple Leaf goalie has been absolutely roasted in recent days for obviously not knowing who Nelson Mandela was. Thats shocking, given that Madiba was arguably the most famous prisoner on the planet and global icon for human rights, a lifetime spent fighting against the apartheid horrors of South Africa before becoming its president, and a beloved statesman until his death a year ago.

The anniversary of Mandelas passing was beautifully marked by the Raptors in The Giant of Africa tribute incorporated into their game against the Cavaliers. Mandela was himself an athlete a boxer in his younger days who believed passionately in the power of sport to transform society. The event drew luminaries such as Magic Johnson and Charles Barkley to the Air Canada Centre to celebrate the man and his legacy.

Bernier and several teammates were among those in attendance. He was also, I dare say, the only person there who evidently had never heard of Mandela.
