which they apparently played during a graphic of Andrew luck during the game yesterday. What am I missing? Why did they do this and why does anyone care
BSPN apologizes for use of Dixie
- Thread starter jewrseyjet0912
- Start date
Because it's a well known fact that Luck was a confederate soldier during the civil war.
Its funny how they dont bat an eye at Georgia playing Glory Glory Hallelujah but if anyone played Dixie at their games it'd be an uproar. Too much brainwashing for people to actual just stop and appreciate a song.

There’s a well known parody twitter account called CaptAndrewLuck which I think is based on the idea that his disheveled beard makes him look like a Civil War era soldier. I assume playing the song was meant to be an allusion to this.
That is pure glory. "Letters from the front, by Andrew Luck"[roll]
And the soy boy beta cucks at ESpin are too cowardly to just go along with their own joke and apologize for it. ******* pathetic. Its a song about the South. Heaven forbid. As they say.....damn yankees.
The opening line of Rutgers alma Mater was changed from my father sent me to old Rutgers and resolved that I should be a man to from far and near we came to Rutgers and resolved to learn all that we can
Nothing would surprise me any more
Wow I didn’t know that about the civil war twitter thing and I’m surprised espn would actually do a gag like that knowing the sjw crowd would be up in arms
Me either. Slowly but surely the brainwashing creeps in generation by generation.
Short hop from there to the national anthem and other “patriotic” tunes. Somebody be offended. You may think you don’t care but you should.
Rutgers boycotted Condaleeza Rice and prevtented her from speaking but paid Snookie $30K to come speak.
My state university has lost their friggin minds. Including joining the big ten and getting their asses kicked all over the place
I feel it shows how big and wasteful our govt is. Imagine anyone else paying someone considered "non essential" and not asking why

Had lee not been the top general of the south we all know general luck would of taken out a few Yankees by throwing footballs at their heads
Who is this General Lee that you speak of? Don't you know that part of American history has been erased from the records?

My pay stub tells me that there is no government shutdown because they still had a field day on my check
The whole segment, once they started the animation, was at it's absolute best poorly executed.
- Featured Andrew Luck as a Union General
- His offensive line was a mix of Union and Confederate troops when the state of Indiana was a Union state
- They played Dixie, a song created by blackface minstrels and a widely recognized unofficial anthem of the Confederacy. Also, the song is widely regarded as racist by the African American community. The song was part of the score of the original "Birth of a Nation," a film that helped inspire the reformation of the Ku Klux Klan. Why on Earth did anyone think the African American community wants to hear a song that has come to represent the Confederacy, slavery, and white supremacy?

Simply coming to this board is supporting the pay of non-essential employees. The college sports world would still be a multi-billion dollar industry if Rivals ceased to exist.
Because most people are intellectually incapable of seeing or understanding anything from outside their worldview/POV
