Saw an article about
Saw an article about that Florida football team adopting "Let's Roll" as their season slogan.All right, overall it's a pretty silly thing to get tied up in knots over, as I think there are too many media articles on it already. But there is something that strikes me as pretty tasteless. And that is, if it's used to honor the folks on that plane, then why the hell is it justification to BEAT another team? Like, Florida State is going to go and try to beat Miami in honor of the folks on that plane? How many people that died on that plane graduated from Florida State, anyway?
That's the difference between honoring them and co-opting them...
