SOUTHWEST ILLINOIS CC IS LIKE SCREWED

The NCAA will lobby the BCS to ban any and all "offensive mascot" Indian names from BCS competition, according to Illinois Director of Athletics Ron Guenther. U of I has yet to make a formal response to the NCAA along the lines of UND President and EDSBS hero Charles Kupchella's jeremiad/nerd-slap, so Chief Illiniwek will be on the sidelines for this fall more exciting [NAME REDACTED] football, which may be Myles Brand's way of eliminating the horribly offensive mascot: killing him with bad football and constant on-field "improvement."

The Southwest Illinois Community College Scalpin' Hatchet-Packers, though? They're like totally screwed, man.

The only thing standing between you and fatal offense. You need him on that wall.

Well, it’s just a matter of time before the NCAA bans “Crimson Tide” because it’s offensive to every woman between adolesence and menopause.

Just give Miles until the end of the month.

And really… we’re concerned about having Illinois in BCS competition? Only if by “Big Ten Football” you mean “Big Ten Basketball,” and by “BCS Game” you mean “NCAA Tournament.”

I imagine it’s in a place that you don’t like to talk about at cocktail parties.

Get the president on the phone. We’re surrendering our position in Cuba!

Alabama has a lot more to worry about than just “Crimson Tide”. As the #1 informant to the NCAA, Phil Fulmer happened to let me in on a little secret – “Alabama” happens to be an Indian Word.

All hail the NCAA – headquartered in INDIANapolis, INDIANa.
