Re: pic: The Fighting Rednecks

Back in 07, when our team was re-naming ourselves, I proposed the team name "Hick Town Thunder." (It would be awesome, designing our logo to mimic T3's...) But my idea was easily shot down by the same argument Jane has pushed. To this day, I do not understand how these similiar ideas are offensive to people, especially those who are not rednecks.

I like the logo. I support it because it is funny, clever, and eye-catching. I see nothing wrong with it and cannot understand why anyone would take offense to it, especially if you aren't a redneck. Therefore, the only people who are qualified to say whether this logo is offensive are rednecks. I really hope 2883 will have the guts and confidence to keep this their team name and logo.
