So it’s okay to make fun of my last name? Just shows your ability to be serious in a professional setting. Just because my people was almost colonized doesn’t mean I don’t know where I come from! #WeAreStillHere #WildOglala #TeachHim

@Big_I35 Shame on the announcers, @CBSSports must apologize; while this kind of ignorance is more common that it should be, it cannot be tolerated.
@Big_I35 @tayloreldridge To be honest, they thought it was “POOH Bear”. At halftime they found out, and they corrected it and said good things.
@Big_I35 @Ruth_HHopkins It was more than unprofessional. It was unacceptable and disgustingly racist. I am sorry such a great player is treated with such disrespect.
@Big_I35 They're racists because they were having fun in real time on the air? Omg bro don't take life too seriously, you'll never get out alive
@Big_I35 @tayloreldridge Don’t even let it get to you G, keep doing ya thang.
@Big_I35 @Ruth_HHopkins Hey Isaiah, sorry you have to deal with that. Really really uncool and lame to say the least. Love your name!
@Big_I35 I'm sorry this happened to you. I'm Native also and have recently been learning about my heritage and the Native culture. I was adopted and not raised like a Native American. I realize Native names have deep significance. Those announcers should not have made fun of your name.
@Big_I35 @tayloreldridge I hope that @GoShockersMBB @GoShockers will make a public statement in your support. What those announcers did yesterday was unconscionable.
@Big_I35 Im proud of your name Isaiah, Shows who you are and where you come from. Shame on the Broadcasters and their lack of research and knowledge. It felt like we were in grade school again, kids making fun of you.. @CBSSports @MrChickSports @CWalkerSports Ya'll need to do better!
