Re: I find Admiral Ackbar offensive

Without a doubt one of the Top Ten Dumbass things Ole Miss Athletics has ever done to itself... I don't know where to rank it.. maybe somewhere not too far below: 1) Hiring Ed Orgeron (even I have to admit that he was a bigger joke than Akbar, but as with this we didn't recognize the misstep until ...

Hell no we're not serious. Anyone who thinks we are doesn't have the slightest sense for satire.

Re: I find Admiral Ackbar offensive

But we are anyway. people find it humorous because they are laughing AT us. I'm going to say it until I'm blue in the face, but people are laughing with us, not at us. Visit the Ackbar Facebook page. You'll see folks from all accross the country posting in there saying how clever they think it is a...

Re: I find Admiral Ackbar offensive

bravo rebchuck. i agree 100%. we are the laughing stock right now. The thing is, we aren't. We simply aren't. People have really found this humorous, refreshing, and a welcomed break from what they would normally expect out of Mississippians. Look, for we Rebels -- a group of people continuously de...

Re: Another Mascot Vote??

Since we're being pragmatic and doing what takes to get more money, why not just sell the mascot and the nickname to the highest bidder. Ole miss could be the Fed Ex Airmen or the Nike Just Do Its. Other departments could grab sponsors as well. Pfizer could sponsor the pharmacy school. The sky is t...

Re: I find Admiral Ackbar offensive

Regardless of whatever agenda they may push, they do control national narratives and perceptions. Therefore, while you may not like their politics, they're the folks you want on your side. These are the very same outlets that, were we to re-introduce Colonel Reb, would mercilessly rake us over the c...

Re: I find Admiral Ackbar offensive

You guys can spin this however you want to or bury your head in the sand, but in no Galaxy, Star System or dimension is this a positive thing for Ole Miss. It is a joke, but people aren't laughing with us they are laughing at us.. This may not be getting play in Virginia or any of your backyards, b...

Re: Another Mascot Vote??

BEGIN SOAPBOX A few things: They're not getting rid of the name "Rebels". They have been very clear about this so, until they say they're going to do this, all of the complaints about it aren't warranted. And yes, it is political. What isn't these days? However, it isn't the politics many...

Re: I find Admiral Ackbar offensive

Y'all are ridiculous. This is not something the administration has done. It's just some students joking around. And as for "bad press," I haven't seen it. I actually believe the press we've been getting off of the farcical Ackbar campaign has been the best since the Presidential Debate. I'...

The fact that folks want to remove a Chancellor for issues involving a mascot show just how stupid and misguided our fan base is.

Well yeah but saying "twitter.com" is like saying "his myspace is at myspace.com." No duh. There are millions of twitter accounts, many of which are fake (there are like 10 Shaqs).
