Is it actually 1/16th, though? I thought it was slightly stronger than that.

I am not to sure, I know his grandparents have Cherokee in them, not to sure of how strong and if it is both of the gradparents on his mother's side. I can definately see the Cherokee in him though, I had a friend in college who was Cherokee, and Scott reminds me a lot of him! But the exact ratio I am not sure!

Wind I have a question for you and I mean absolutely no disrespect by it. There is always controversy about sports teams names, Redskins, Braves, etc. Is this a discriminatory feeling among the majority of Native Americans? Or is it just a handful who are against the nicknames being used? I was always curious about this. Are these names considered derogatory by most people of your heritage? And please, I hope this is not an offensive question.

I'd also like to know your take on the team-naming thing. I personally see a name like Braves as honoring a heroic image. Also, as a white guy, I'd have no problem if some team was named the Wasps or something like that -- not a direct comparison (I think) but you get the point.

names
I don't find it insulting,after all they are just teams,but I think other natives find it insulting.I really don't mind like the braves or names like that.Redskins isn't to nice,but it really doesn't bother me that much.But I think that they weren't meant to be deragotory when they made the names for the teams.I just don't like the names people say to me,like where I used to work,one guy called me a hot little pocahontas or they used to say How? to me,or stupid things like am I a indian giver and then just say insulting things about native people.

Re: names
