He was also telling me that where he went to high school, the hand egg team were called the "Cotton Pickers" due to the rich cotton tradition in the town (Texas somewhere). There was no slavery ever in his town and all walks of life worked in the cotton fields, but the name was deemed racist by a group of soft c@nts. So much so that there was a movement to get the name changed. It was a big story was on ESPN and made national news. So the vote went ahead with the towns people and former pupils allowed to vote for change or no change. 98% were in favour of keeping the name. Up yours PC police.
But again this had been the team name for decades but only recently it was deemed racist(even without any slavery background to it).
He also told me BP had a rig in the Gulf of Mexico called the Crazy Horse and so many people complained about it BP got sick of it and changed it to the Thunder Horse.
