Without knowing all the names of the teams I find it hard to make an informed decision so. I'm gonna go with:

What a pussified, politically correct utter load of bullshit this is. Banning offensive sports team names does nothing to stop the violence or prejudice against minorities, women, black, homosexuals, transgendered, hell anyone but white males.

So, Lexi and the University of Calgary would be much better served by making these insensitive male intermural athletes who are using allegedly offensive names to take a course in sensitivity where, they could be properly neutered.

Problem solved and no need for front page press releases that detract from the real issues of the world.

I guess the term student is now considered politically incorrect.

there will be a formal complaint process for students offended by those that “slip through the cracks.

File a complaint about every single name made.

At this stage in the ongoing social collapse it should be imperative for every college to fund a team of emotional specialists that do nothing else but give comforting hugs out to every student that gets upset about anything.

So it looks like I was right, unfortunately. A bunch of overly sensitive wankers complaining because someone has more creativity and Joie de vivre than them.



Hilariously apt names. Just one question though WTF is Bubble soccer?

Censorship has a near perfect track record of doing the opposite of the intent.
