WE LOVE YOU CHIEF!

is it not true that he has to learn the real dances/chants? I really don't understand why the NCAA would retire a symbol of a university unless it sends a degrading message. This, obviously, does not. It honors tradition in a good way. I wonder how much malice and hate Florida Gator fans have in their hearts when they do the infamous "Gator Chomp"? Lets stop them from the multi-million dollar business of hosting tournaments. If the NCAA feels as though they need to make an example of someone, make it somewhere else. Go Illini!

Dear Friends,
I read and signed "Loyalty to the Chief."
Please take a moment to read about this important issue, and join me in signing the petition. It takes just 30 seconds, but can truly make a difference. We are trying to reach 16,692 signatures - please sign here:

I'm not usually one to get highly emotional about things, but I couldn't even sing along with the alma mater because I was choked up.

i just want to say FUCK POLITICAL CORRECTNESS! That aside, I seriously think that getting rid of Chief Illiniwek was a blow to the name of college sports. There are a lot of teams that are named after tribes and shit, do they have their mascot taken? No. The thing that pisses me off the most about this is that the stipulations to wear the costume are ridiculous. They HAVE to be a certain amount of Native American, they HAVE to have some sort of background in it. Not only that, but the dance is a real dance. Who in the hell do these people think they are? I say we get a petition to bring Chied Illiniwek back.

I would like to personally thank Dan and the former Chiefs for their years of service in carrying on our proud tradition here at the University of Illinois. You all carried yourselves with dignity and class every time you set foot on the playing surface and I & my family appreciate it a great deal.
I would also like to remind the members of this group, that the Chief is retired but not gone or banned…With help and support I believe we can bring him back at a later time!
Judging by the numbers last night & today I would say, "the needs of the 'many' should be able to triumph over the complaints of a 'few'."

Has anyone ever heard a comeback from anyone on why fighting irish is accepted and the Chief is so "racist" and "closeminded"? I don't understand why one is okay and is a sense of pride for a group of people, but another group of people, who people have tried hard not to offend, takes it all as an insult. It's a tribute to the state's past. I just don't understand it.

The guy who wrote that article in the post dispatch is a moron...he says that we have been ignoring this for years but he obviously did not do his homework because we had the blessing of the last cheif of the ancestors of the illini tribe. It wasn't until recently when the last cheif died and a new cheif was elected that the tribe changed thier mind....

the fact that this happened makes me hate minorities

Here's the Trib lady's email and the email for the editor:

Since when did the Chief do a tomahawk chop? I think it's time to flood her inbox asking for a correction.

I have a lot of opinions about this issue that probably aren't "politically correct" to post on this wall, but my question is this: Aren't there more important things going on in the world today that need to be dealt with than bitching about college mascots and symbols? For instance, why don't these people who must bitch about something put up a good fight to stop terrorism or child abuse or something of that nature. As a U of I alum, I can say their efforts would be much more appreciated in other areas than desecrating OUR CHIEF!!!!

High school rather than college.
