Watching right now and the talking head and Herbstreit just said Ole Miss Landsharks 4 times in a row.

Even Herbies kid was on TV talk g about the Landsharks.

I know that's been floating around for a couple years but it's like ESPN refuses to say Rebels. ... You know cuz it's racist.

So? Rebels, the confederate flag and Old Mrs. fans represent everything that's wrong with the south.

It's only racist if you own a rebel flag.

There is nothing. Wrong with the word "Rebels".

It's certainly better than the mythical landshark, whatever the f that is.

Yes Rebels is a reference to the great American Revolution which involved George Washington.

Yes, a-hole, I know what it's a reference to.

I suppose you are one of the jerk off PC dogooders that thinks everything that is even remotely connected to the confederacy should be scrubbed from history.

They are The Ole Miss REBELS and always will be in my mind. And there is nothing wrong with that. Frick PC.

I figured your avatar would make obvious where you stand on political correctness.
