Yeah, might be harsh by you here Frank but that was a BS post by Fred...
I have lots of Native American friends that hate seeing the Redskins and Indians names changed.

I've heard the new generation say that shows like Friends and Seinfeld are not really tolerable because of how offensive they are.
I disagreed with that thought at first, but after rewatching many episodes, I could see that from a first-time viewer in an era where it's less accepted.
What Is offensive is always changing. Decades ago people were offended The Brady Bunch was about a woman who was divorced. Sesame Street was too multi cultural to be shown in Mississippi. People gleefully tried to cancel Elvis and the Beatles.
People we're always upset about something.

When talking about the TE running around by himself on the first play. Pratt's blown coverage, not Wilson's.

There are all sorts of extremists out there.
There sure are. I prefer Tolkien to Rowling. His mythology seems to me to be more grounded in actual spirituality and historical beliefs, hers seems to be merely symbolic window dressing. But then, I haven't read her books, so maybe they're better in that regard...
Personally I'm more than a little weary of the whole PC, easily offended thing in our society, left or right based. But then I'm a guy who can listen to Rush L one day, and NPR the next and find merit (and disagreement) in each...
