I like how selective the SEC is. Georgia’s flag is the original CSA flag but since they actually have leverage over the SEC the commish will never threaten.

I’m as conservative as the next guy, but it needed to go. It was only added in the 1890’s and no doubt was about sticking a finger in people’s eyes. I hate that taking it off was in response to the mob - rewarding bad behavior never sits well with me - but it’s just not appropriate on a state flag.

You’re right about major events but Ole Miss and State have held NCAA regional baseball tournaments which the NCAA would have withheld.

The new flag which will be voted on by the people (I think that’s right) will have to have the words “In God We Trust” on it which is not going to be an objection to most Mississippians but is certain to draw the ire of liberals who reside in other states.
What’s going to be different this time is that the state’s populace will not be able to vote on the current flag. When this flag issue came up before a while back Mississippians voted by a pretty substantial margin to keep the current flag. In this political climate, and with 38% of the state’s population being black, I don’t think the current flag would win again, but I do feel the people should have the right to vote on it. They won’t get that opportunity.
The state of Mississippi was being hurt economically and in more and more circles the flag was being rejected. None of the state’s universities were flying the flag on their campuses.
