	The various terms used to name teams after Indians (Early Americans from Russia & Asia) were used to show Bravery, Fighting Spirit and Strength. Who would want that? The Early Americans will soon be all but an * in a history book that isn't taught anymore. If it was me I would have wanted to hold on to some relevence in popular culture, but I guess it is their decision - or should be. As for me, if you want to name your team the Fighting French Huguenots; I would be PROUD!!!!

	I would never want my team to be the Fighting French Huguenots, with the "white flag" mascot and they surrender at halftime no matter the score. I would love to play them though.
