This season, the Arkansas State University football team decided to honor their recently murdered teammate and their former equipment manager who recently died in a car crash by wearing a Christian cross with the men's initials on it on their helmets. However, as reported yesteday by
Fox News, University counsel told the team to remove the emblems after receiving a complaint that the team's wearing them violates the Establishment Clause. Counsel said that alternatively the players could change the Christian Cross to a "Plus sign" to eliminate the problem.
