I get pissed everytime I see a Jayhawk. With all the PC bs we have today the fact that the Jayhawk lives is astounding. It needs to go. Ditto for redlegs.

Missouri is more Confederate than Texas. It's like scientifically provable to anyone with decent reading comprehension.
And to this day the majority of Missouri is more southern than Texas, which has become Floridaesque with its immigrants and northern transplants.
Nice try.

Their mascot is a highly offensive insult to every Missourian who died, was raped or lost property due to their terrorism, and to the descendants of those people as well. And to anyone who understands what they did. Selecting a terrorist as their mascot, and being proud of it, while calling Missourians slavers (to this very day) is typical of those jackasses.

I'll be honest here.
It doesn't offend me.
And it all seems contrived to me.
Who gives a shite about something that happened over a century and a half ago?
Not me.
Kansas is dead to me now. We don't play them anymore.
