Comments on: "PorkChop" Mascot Inflames Pa. Fans

Slur Used Against Hispanics Factory Workers Prompts Name Change By Triple-A Team

Oh come on, this is so stupid. The mascot is a pig, put it in context you pansies! Honestly I''ve never heard that term as derogatory for anyone except fat people, now that the light has been shone I guess we can all update our slang roster of insults.

Rokero0666 - if those names were submitted and it was picked, I really do doubt it would''ve come up as an issue. Don''t you see how silly this all sounds? PorkChop is a great name for a mascot.
No, instead we get all weepy eyed from the thin-skinned who''ll next be sueing the local diner because the menu includes porkchops with applesauce.

As far as I''m concerned, they could call themselves "The White Crackers" or "The White Honkies" I don''t get upset over a name.

Grow some gonads.

I got it... lets call the little porker "Muhammad"! Who cares if we **** them off!

Porkchop, used to be a moniker for being slow, or out of shape in sports years ago. As I remember it.

Now we have a flood of illegals flowing across the border, we''ll be speaking spanish before I die.

I agree this story is B.S.

Of all things to get upset about, these few Puerto Rican/American whiners have nothing better to complain about? Take your balls out of your purse Mr. Lopez, and be a man. We''ve all been called some derogatory remark or another over the span of our lives. If "Porkchop" was the worst you were called, consider yourself lucky. I thought steel workers were tough guys, not pansies. And shame on the team for caving in to these overly sensitive politically correct crybabies. Grow a pair and stand up for yourselves!

When you think about all of the pollution that the steel industry has dumped on that area, I am offended by the use of "Ferrous". If one is offended, one is too many. What will you call him or her, now??

What a bunch of B... S....
