Se Missouri State Mascot/name Change

http://www2.semo.edu/urelations/mascot/ anyhow the school in Cape Girardeau Missouri wants to change its name from Indians/Otakians to a more PC name, you can leave suggestions here. the university has the approval of the local tribes to use the name and it fits the heritage of the area as well. I believe that it is a bigger disgrace to let the name go and turn our back on our history and culture. If these political correction police must have their though names such as falcons or wolves (also suggested) do not truely evoke any pride or connection withthe area. Redbirds is a good fit and has ties in multiple ways but and i hate to do this; the name fighting squirrels or ninja squirrels actually has buzz and appeal and would sell merchandise the country over, which is all this about anyway, a way to make more money. What do you those of you in the know think is a good idea?

I like my women like i like my coffee, tied up in a burlap sack and thrown over the back of a donkey.

it depends on their indian logo. if its like the braves or indians (cleveland) then it shoul be changed. if its classy like the blckhawks or the chiefs, then its fine.

I hate then a post is in two different places, but i'll put my comments from the Sports Logo board here, too..

I say the copperheads was the best reccomendation. The snake is an under-utilized mascot, the football team could have copper colored helmets, which I don't think many, (if any) teams currently use. The S in SE missouri could be the snake... i think copperheads rocks.
