All right let me get this back on track for a second. I honestly think the changing of the mascot was a good idea. Why would a group of people want to be associated with a grim moment in the civil rights movement where they were proved to be wrong. I think that it was ignorant of so many to keep waving the C. Jack around just out of spite and a delusional idea of what their heritage is. I do however think that Ole Miss should keep the flag as part of its history. There are to many revisionists out there that want to rewrite history to suite their needs. Whatever the history is, it needs to be relished, good bad and ugly.

The Col Reb mascot looked identical to Col Sanders IMO. Where's the outrage with KFC's "image"?
