The name? "Gator?"  Or "bait?"

Apparently it's that using slaves as literal gator bait was an interrogation tactic to find runaways?

I think I'm about as sympathetic as this board will find towards PCness, but that seems like a HUUUUUGE stretch.

Tell me about it.

Mike Gundy about to lose his team and his job over a t-shirt he wore on a fishing trip.

I’d have told Chuba Hubbard to take his ass back to Canada and told everyone else to suck my ass if I was Mike Gundy.

We are living in the craziest times ever. 

The irony is that he had the easiest out in the world. 

"I planned to clean the fish in that shirt and just wanted something I could get crap all over."

Done and done.

The fact that it ever became a big deal blows my mind. He wasn't wearing a Nazi uniform. It was a damn t-shirt of a tv station. If he was wearing an MSNBC shirt- everything would've been cool then?

Chuba Hubbard should've been a god damn man with a sack and tried talking to Gundy in person or over the phone if he had a problem with Gundy wearing the t-shirt- instead of crybaby little internet twitter pussy. Lost what little respect that I had for Hubbard- until I found out the guy was Canadian- then I lost all respect for him. He can take his soft cupcake ass back to Canada for all I care.

Why do visitors in this country think they have the right to tell people in this country how to think or what t-shirts they can wear? Chuba Hubbard has zero idea what it's like to grow up in the US. He's from motherf###n CANADA. He's here on a student visa and he's been in the US for like 2 years.

Here's an idea- if you're a visitor in this country and not a citizen or permanent resident- then shut the f##k up about this country please. I'm not interested in your opinion and no one else in this country should be either. This little fruitcake needs to go back to Canada with Justin Bieber.

The problem with antiracism becoming more widespread is that you still have to deal with HOA types who are suddenly empowered with new things to make rules about.  If schools start looking through history to eliminate things that have racist history, you've got a lot of things to chop.

Why should he lie?

Why should he lie?

Well the obvious answer might be-- to save his job.  But I hear what you're saying.

I had never heard of "Juneteenth" before this year, and had no clue Gator Bait had bad connotations.

I could guess nearly everything may have bad connotations at some level, no?

It doesn’t have bad connotations. 

I just read that the Gator Bait chant was started by a black UF defensive player in the 80s, and his famous line was, “if you ain’t a gator, you gator bait!”. 

I am forgetting his name, but he’s pissed off about this. He said it’s ridiculous and he wants to talk to the school President about it and he wants them to unban it.
