What about the Utah Jizz? That's totally offensive to me.
May 30, 2010 / 20:24
Why know Mr Cox why try to fix something that's not broke.
I blame the leafs for this because if they were still in the playoffs Cox would be busy complaining about ticket prices, Toronto traffic and trying to make positives in to negatives Like Toronto Print Media is programed to do
get a life and stop trying to spoil what will be a great series regardless of who wins

Why isn't Damien complaining about "Round-eye," "Cracker," "Pale-face" "Trailer-trash," "Redneck," and other terms?
Oh, that's right.
It's only OK to deride white people.
Get a life, Cox! Write about things that matter.

I don\t think most natives are offended by it.
May 31, 2010 / 02:52
I don't find 'Blackhawks' offensive, and I really have no idea if most native people do. But I think it's a question worth asking at least.
But as far as teams names coined from native people - I think 'Redskins' has got to be the most offensive.
Freeway - haha..
Right Uppercut - there aren't teams called the crackers, round eyes or rednecks. That's why he isn't complaining about them.

I have always maintazined that newspaper writers were some of the most uncreative people in the world. Cox had days to think about his column and come up with something good, but he came up with that piece of garbage. Way to go Cox. Try writing something positive for a change.
May 31, 2010 / 06:00
Sorry, should have been "maintained", although "maintazined" sounds like a cool word.

What do you expect from the righteous high foreheads at the Star, Toronto's PC voice (Polically Correct, not Progressive Conservative). Remember the "White Jays" story? Most ridiculous front page embarrassment ever. They'll never live that one down.

Freddie, you know about pushing buttons to get a reaction? Who knew? :)
May 31, 2010 / 09:35
Slowdown Cox. The Blackhawks represent a hockey team, a rich, powerful, and honourable organization loved by millions. Not something demeaning like a sewage plant (or something stupid like that).
The Blackhawks logo is hands down the best logo in the NHL.
In no way is it racist or derogatory to people of Indian heritage whatsoever, at least in my eyes.
You would think it would be an honour that a pro sports team would want this type of identity to represent a team that's strong and tough. Personally, I'd rather my team be named after a Blackhawk than a Maple Leaf.
May 31, 2010 / 09:58
Get rid of the Blue Jays, Orioles, Cardinals, Eagles, Hawks, Ducks, etc. logos NOW. These are all extremely offensive to birds. While they're at it, change other animal teams like the Sharks and Panthers as well. Shame on these organizations for depicting animals.
How about something a little more PC like the San Jose Sea Breezes or the Florida Sunshines instead? Perfect! I'm on to something...
May 31, 2010 / 10:21
Clearly Cox has been hanging around that douchebag McCown for too long.
May 31, 2010 / 11:04
I had much the same reaction to Cox's column. Good intention but misplaced. Had he gone after teams like the Redskins, Braves, Indians, etc... I would have been much more sympathetic.
So . . . here's is the solution. Have Rocky Wirtz approach the current band chief of the Black Hawks nation (if they still exist) and get his feedback. Get the tribe's feedback through a plebicite. If a majority of the respondents feel the name is an appropriate and inoffensive tribe to their ancestors, you have no problem. If they come back with concerns, work with them and come to an honourable resolution. This is really basic stuff.
I guess in the fall we'll read all about offended Norwegians once the Vikings lace them up . . .
May 31, 2010 / 11:46
Wonder if Cox really believes the logo should be scrapped. One thing I DO know is, he wants people to read and talk about his columns.

Ontario's Watchdog:
Have a dedicated sick room, so one day a nauseated colleague was forced to take a trash bin to the kitchen and vomit where others were eating. Marin said with so many hospitals near the downtown office, “I don’t think we need to have a hospital facility in our office.”
May 31, 2010 / 14:04
Well said Freddie. Personally I think the Black Hawks uniform is one of the nicest in the NHL. I'd hate to see it changed because of boneheaded political correctness. Fortunately they're in the U.S. and not pinko Canada, so I don't think we have to worry.
May 31, 2010 / 15:08
I guess the New Zealand All-Blacks had better watch out, too.
May 31, 2010 / 15:52
It's a good thing Damien's granddaddy wasn't the Chief. The Black Cox would be a whole other issue, but I’d love to see the logo.
But, I must disagree; the discrimination of Whites IS underway. Our soccer team is called the White Caps, and Chicago has the White Socks – apparently we dress funny, which instills fear in our opponents (it started with the Scottish)
May 31, 2010 / 18:29
New York Yankees - isn't Yank sort of a derogatory term? Kansas City Royals - making fun of the Royal Family (granted they are all inbreds).

First of all I can't be live I agree with Buffalo Mike.
Secondly, Pauly's post is hilarious.
Oh and finally, has anyone figured out what the hell a 'flyer' is? Is it a fairy or something like that?
May 31, 2010 / 21:37
That's 'believe' instead of live.

Hey Fred! You censored me???

No I didn't Trish. I did a spam clearance and accidently wiped a few good ones.
I'm sorry, but the spam problem I have is overwhelming.

What I said was that I'd love to hear Cox's take on the Tiger Woods situation. I hear he's the same sort of guy.
June 1, 2010 / 11:13
Cox is a douche, and should be ignored. He should change his surname, it is offensive to all men.

In an effort to resist harmful spamming located on my web log, I would undoubtedly use a small disclaimer together with the comment box. I would certainly let the website readers be assured that I really encourage them to highlight their own net sites if they contribute some pretty good information concerned with the article. I will not mind working just a little bit if you would like to receive a pretty good link.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
August 28, 2010 / 23:57
I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Who ever imagined the thought developing a mosque at ground zero was indeed a wise idea? I am not really a great fan of both Glen Beck or Sarah Palin however , as compared to Obama and his supremely idiotic current administration, the two of these are prodigies, come on The us, there is certainly some strange stuff happening here.

Arghhh !!! Congress involved in regualting sports ! And it's covered like a national security issue !!!!There should be an article "Why is Congress Involved in Regulating Sports ?"Then when you think of all the corrput, lying politicians in Congress, here they pick on some two-bit sports gladiator to make an example of !!!.....:-)
September 1, 2010 / 11:44
Well... to be entirely truthful, I wasn't expecting to stumble upon this type of information by mistake, as I did, because I recently found your blog while I was in fact running a search in Yahoo, trying to find something very close but not exactly the same...
However now I'm more than glad to read it and I'd like to add that your point of view is extremely interesting although a bit controversial to the acknowledged... I'd rather say it's up to open debate... but I'm afraid to make you my enemy, ha, ha, ha...
However, in case you want to talk more about it, please respond to my comment and I'll make sure to subscribe so that I will be notified and return here for more...
