Love it. I was on a delivery of one of our big floaty things and came across this bad boy.

Beat me to it. Wonder if some girl broke his heart who absolutely loved candy corn. Guy has a vendetta. He’s not wrong about his statement though - especially the Reese’s

You don’t need a compelling reason to hate candy corn. One taste is all it takes.

Nothing. Brave is just a Native American warrior. It’s the same thing as the Vikings. But to these people, anything to describe a culture that’s not white is inherently racist unless that culture is the one using it.

I have a history degree. It hasn’t been useful for much, but it has been useful for my common sense. I’ve studied the Braves, the warrior ones.. it’s never been derogatory. Of course redskins is. But Indians is just a misnomer, and Brave is a warrior. Taking those names away is useless.

And technically, "Braves" is not even a designated Native American term. They had their own language. "Braves" was not derived from that language. And, as noted, it's not a derogatory label.

Sold.

That Notre Dame vs. Michigan in Ann Arbor would do killer ratings. Also, Ohio St. vs. Kentucky would be intriguing.

I think more people should have the "How's my Driving?" and a phone number on their vehicles so I can call and complain.

My colonial America’s professor went into that more in depth. I just don’t speak to it because I don’t know the languages in the first place- but he did. It was amazing how much he knew about the natives

Am I missing something? I've never thought "Braves" was derogatory.

I mean Redskins I get...and I also get not using Native Americans as a mascot. But what's wrong with Braves?

My vote is the Atlanta Foreskins if they ever have a contest to rename the team. If they reject that name, maybe the Atlanta Taint-----lets get everyone upset

Hahahah. That’s great. They will most likely change to the Atlanta Hammers. That’s kind of phallic. So you’re almost right

911 is a good number to call when someone is really driving badly----it works every time

Since we're on this car thing, my daughter gave me a voucher to drive a supercar down at various tracks around the country as a Christmas gift last year. Covid, and other issues has delayed me doing it. I think next spring is when I'll schedule it. Which car should I choose?

What does it matter, grandpa? Not like you'll get over 50mph anyway. Even that may be too fast for you, old man.

Could really set people off and just assume pronouns with the team name...

Atlanta Dudes
Atlanta Hot Boys
Atlanta Guys
Atlanta Men
Atlanta Fellows
Atlanta A$$holes

 

[Christian Lowe]

I’m arguing with people about it in more liberal think tanks online.. cough, Twitter.

it’s amazing how the woke crowd can cry all day about teams, chants, really anything being racist but as soon as someone says anything back then THEY’RE the snowflake somehow.

The Atlanta Baseball team.

Anyone got a Black Widow? That’s a mean ass truck.

 

[mrmax86]

The Atlanta Cokes

 

[mrmax86]

Guys, you don't even know how bothered I was about how JG would not correct the pronunciation of his name for the longest time. What a perfect illustration of the difference in these 2 QBs.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

The Atlanta Baseball team.

Sounds pretty original, I also like adding The as well as team ties it all together. The logo can just be the letter A even with Atlanta Baseball Team in smaller font in like a circle around it.

Anybody riding this Shiba train right now? What a week.

Kinda like "Hows my posts?" then @frank's contact info.

 

[bignewt]

Except the tweet I was literally quoting was about them...

Saw it was your post and scrolled right by most likely.

ESPN was bashing the name in one of its top stories this morning

Who watches ESPN on a weekday morning? Get a job, Antone.

Why are their alien crop circles by your truck? Have you been abducted

Haha I sprayed my shutters this summer, had them sitting on 2 garbage cans. It’s almost gone now
