masterrig 1 #4 January 21, 2012 Quote Quote This country is so PC whipped! Chuck I wish people would just man up... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXD8yOxIPB0 Does this mean that all schools with 'cougar' for a mascot has to suddenly re-think it and adopt a new one? Let's see... they could choose the mosquito or the fiddler crab... oh wait. Fiddler crab could just possibly offend violin players. Let's see... I'll have to get back with you.

GeorgiaDon 340 #5 January 22, 2012 It'd be pretty funny to see a "cougar" mascot that actually is a middle-aged woman. The University of South Carolina women's basketball team are the "Lady Cocks" (the football team are the "Game Cocks"). Breaks me up every time I hear that.

My old HS is still the Choctawhatchee HS Indians. #% those that might be offended by our fight song "Holey Moley" Verse 1 Tall as a mountain,with his head up in the sky. Broad as a bayou, with the sun for his left eye; See him comin', spreading terror through the land, Breathin' fire, with a football in his hand! (Scream) Chorus Holey moley! it's a Big Green Indian! Tell me, brother, have you seen him run? Holey moley! it's a Big Green Indian. [You can't stop him with a rope, knife, or gun. No, you can't stop him with a rope, knife, or gun.] Repeat VERSE 2 Friends forever to the ones who call his name, Strong and loyal, may we always be the same. Ever present, as the sea is to the sand, May his shadow always fall across our land. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 0 #24 January 22, 2012 Hey! Maybe schools on Native American reservations should have a mascot that looks like this: http://www.best-of-web.com/_images_300/Vintage_People_Cartoon_Man_Smoking_a_Pipe_101210-203237-274042.jpg We can call their team "The Lakota Cleavers". Or how about the "Iroquois Presbyterians"? The possibilities are endless. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
