    I like "Big Chief", but I am sure that it will piss off people because it could be an insult to Native Americans.

                      I dated a Shoshone that literally lived on a reservation. I asked her about the whole "Redskins" and the Florida State tomahawk chop and all that and she said they could of cared less.

                          BTW "OWNER" is by far the most accurate term. Maybe to you and me an NBA contract is something special but to the guys signing those contract s it is just like purchasing slaves. Literally only difference is lack of whips/chains and compensation in regard to a persons NEEDS. Instead of picking cotton for a cot in a shack with some rusty bacon and butter dipped in salt they dunk basketballs for big houses and white girls while the OWNERS horde all the money from fans and ESPECIALLY the gambler. Make NO MISTAKE about it ESPECIALLY the gambler.

                            When the Libs find out about that, they will have them renamed to Rocky/Mugsy.

                                  Fun story...years ago I was playing basketball and I’m the only white guy obviously at the rec center....dude I know comes over (black) and asks what I have been up to since he hasn’t seen me in a while....I said just working and traveling.....

                                  i then asked him and he says “just been working for the man”.....i promptly responded “when did I hire you?”

                                    So if you own a house and you rent it are you a racist because you are the owner of the house?

                                                They just need to make up a name that has never been heard before, kind of like most of the babies that are born nowadays.

                                                  They OWN a franchise. I am not exactly sure how that is racist or insensitive.

                                                              You own the home but you don't own the people who rent the home.

                                                              Our society has gotten so pussified. Everybody is offended by everyone. Everyone has a right to be offended and everyone has to win a trophy or it's not fair. Whatever happened to "Life is not fair"? We've replaced it with everyone has to be given a podium to complain. Our kids are chumps that can't handle pressure because we've babied them.

                                                              The bible out of the school and the end of corporal punishment has turned this place to shit.
