OK - here's what we need to do. Let's start a college, join the NCAA and give our teams the following nickname:
"The Noble and Proud Indigenous Peoples of North and South America who, having endured prejudicial and unfair treatment at the hands of the U.S. government, nevertheless have maintained their culture, identity and dignity and who deserve to be honored by our sports teams as an example of how a group of people can endure despite cruel hardships and attempts by others to eradicate them".
Of course, the women's teams would be "The Lady Noble and Proud Indigenous Peoples of North and South America who, having endured prejudicial and unfair treatment at the hands of the U.S. government, nevertheless have maintained their culture, identity and dignity and who deserve to be honored by our sports teams as an example of how a group of people can endure despite cruel hardships and attempts by others to eradicate them".
Or....we could just use the more politically correct "Casino-Americans" (that's not a slur - that's a term of respect and admiration used here in Oregon - really).
