re: Will Confederate flags be allowed/visible in the Gameday background?

[quote]No it doesn't. It's not the actual flag the Confederacy flew. It's a flag the KKK and segregationists adopted in their quest against blacks. Even if it were the official flag of the Confederacy, the Confederacy lost. It's time to move on, and take the flag with it. If someone wants to still fly it on their personal property, fine, but it has no place on government grounds or on state flags, no matter the will of the people.

The poor blacks and whites that stayed in the south during reconstruction that felt the embarrassment of northern oppression still feel like that flag made the south different. It didn't just represent everything BAD but it represented the south's rise up. My grandparents were raised on the sharecropper farms and poor blacks and whites were proud to be from the south. In modern times things are very different. But, I understand that the flag doesn't represent HATE for everyone.
