The East Carolina Pirates have updated their mascot for the 21st century.
Heh.
Ordained in the Presbyterian Church (USA), I am a Ph.D. student at Union Presbyterian Seminary in Richmond, Virginia, a husband, and father of two red-headed boys.
Now if we could only get the Washington Redskins (a term that is the Native American equivalent of "Kike" or "Chink," or "N****r") to update their mascot for the 21st C. I find it so offensive that the football team of our nation's capital has such a racist slur as its official name.
