Quote:It's the only name in sports literally based on the (perceived) color of a man's skin.

 

I really don't think it needs to go much further than that.  It's a horrible name.
 

I am glad to have an opportunity to discuss this with a person I highly respect. I know if you feel it is offensive, then it isn't just words to you, there is substance that you believe in.
 
Can I ask what part of skin color is offensive? Skin color ... I don't get why skin color is offensive. I am looking for someone to explain to me why I should find skin color offensive. Is this one of those things that are a given, and I should just accept it without understanding it?

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
