whether you think Redman is racially insensitive or not, its just a stupid name regardless IMO. Might as well be whiteman or blackman..
Correction Redmen, not Redman

The Redmen name started in the 1920s because the team wore red unis. An Indian mascot was added afterward. All they had to do was get rid of that mascot, sound familiar?
sounds fine to me :)

Correction, Red Storm, not either of those.
Is Method Man still touring with him?
Scary game. They will be focused after losing in last couple of seconds accompanied by a bad out of bounds call. Fun finish if you are OK with a Seton Hall win.

Selfishly I was pulling for St John's for the Imperialism map. Seton Hall winning is better for the league because they are a better bet for an at large bid. SHU probably gets in at 10-8, while St John's likely needs 11-7 or even 12-6.

Yeah, fun game to watch and SJU got screwed at the end by the refs. Both teams played fast but had lots of turnovers. SJU looked tired at the end. Hopefully we can use that against them since we use more guys in our rotation.
Mostly a scary game because MU hasn't played on the road since Indiana.

This. More than six weeks since our last true road game....
Team has grown a lot since the IU game. Will be a good opportunity to test that growth. I also wish St. John's was coming into it having won their last game.
Should be a fun and exciting game to kickoff the conf season for us. I expect MU to play much better than at IU.

Not quite the same thing. Warrior means multiple things, most of them having nothing to do with American Indians. In today's context, redmen is exclusively an offensive term for American Indians. They would have had to change the name along with the mascot.

If you have to provide an excuse why using a racist slur is okay, maybe that's a good indicator just to not use the racist slur.
