class of 1975. this rant of theirs to remove the Rebel name is just another whine-of-the-day. some people aren't happy unless they have something to play the whining victim card and are told what to boo hoo about.

STOP THE MADNESS! There is NO "Valid" reason to change the teams mascot name, just like there was NO "Valid" reason to ban the Confederate Flag! It's a part of our history, like it or not, good or bad (in your own eyes). What next .. remove the chapters on the Civil War from our history books? Relax folks .. the "Flag" or a school mascot named the "Rebels" isn't hurting anyone except overly sensetive people with nothing better to do than whine about this stuff! GO REBELS!!!!
