Hey, did Indians descend from the Nips?

Didn't we have a discussion about talking about Nips?
Didn't Bugs Bunny Nip the Nips?

The peak of "Western" movies has long been over. Kids don't play Cowboys and Indians like they once did. There is less and less time spent on the Indian history in school. The only thing that will preserve the heritage of the Indians will be the names of cities and rivers. If it wasn't for sports mascots, the only time I would have heard of the Sioux or the Seminoles was from a single paragraph in my 5th grade history book.

It may be better to keep the names and educate people on the history and significance than to eliminate it and let future generations never learn about them.
Great post.

Funny you should ask. I believe the Indians are a mix of Mexicans and Nips. Mexi-nips, if you will. Which reminds me that I need to find these and give them a test drive. :nod:

I'm into the lower carbs these days, but I could crush an entire box of regular Cheese Nips in my prime.

Yep, as Eagles fans, I think we agree that we hope he NEVER sells that team. Same deal with Jerry Jones. :clap:

Snyder putting his foot down, so to speak, may be what it takes to bring some finality to a debate that’s raged on all offseason over the offensive nature of the team name ‘Redskins.’
:| If anything I think he may have inflamed the situation.

Agreed. A pretty asinine response.
