With all the furor over sports team names and renaming, I have noticed a couple of teams which have not been mentioned. The Braves, Indians, the Clan, the Chiefs, the Eskimos, these are teams which are being pressured to change their names. Why has no one mentioned the Boston Celtics? Could it be because people of Celtic extraction are not chronic whiners? The Minnesota Vikings have also, so far, avoided any such controversy. Are Scandinavians also missing the whining gene? The only thing these groups have in common is not their history. Historically they were bitter enemies and Vikings slaughtered wagon loads of Celts. There must be a common denominator. Anyone know what it might be? GD
