Dear Prez -
Here is the solution - follow these steps -

1) Get an earful from dozens of reeeeeally happy traditionalist. Tell them Peruna is going nowhere -and you will make an announcement yourself about that later. Help them get into the stadium with their walkers.

2) Get an earful from several dozen clueless 25 year olds from California that think it would be "narly" to have a full size horse big enough to pull a wagon full of beer. Let them know you are working on that and will get right back to you......Do a quick beer bong to show them you are cool.

2) Accept the gift of the horse(s) at half time. Do a 360 degree gladhand of everyone nearby. Tell Ms Pickens how young she is looking these days. Pick up the large check. Have a presidential page rush it to the bank so it clears. Tell the Dodger we appreciate his support and hope to have him call on some recruits for us. Oooh and Aaah over the Navy flyover. Cheer on the win. Tell Dodger we are sorry he had to see Navy get beat but it would be great if he called on this QB we have our eye on. Tell ms Pickens she is lucky she didnt get carded.

3) At half time pulL aside you old buddy Banowsky - the CUSA commissioner. Let him know you are in a Mr Ed jam. Tell him it would be great if the conference had a "new rule" against more then one live mascot on the sidelines during a game. It would be reeeeeeally good if they had that rule - like real soon. wink, wink

4) Call Ms Pickens. Mention she is looking really young these days. Let her we reeeeeeally appreciate the gift - and the opportunity to paticipate in her sooper dooper cause. The horses - Fred and Ethel, will always have a place in the heart of all pony fans - however the conference has this rule that we only get to have one live mascot on the field and since Peruna has been around an itty bitty bit longer we will have Fred and Ethel make cameos before games and somesuch.....and by they way ....we could reeeeeeeally use an indoor practice facility with your name on it. Did I mention I cant tell you apart form our college age co-eds?

5) Tell June we are out of luck on the big horseys. When he starts pouting - tell him you think you can get him on at Augusta.

6) Tell the surfers you cant believe that banosky fella dissed us. Tell them their fraternity can stay on campus one more year as a consolation prize.

7) Tell the old farts (in their good ear) that you had that bad ol horse issue taken care of - and to show some gratitude may be they can fork over some dough for an indoor practice facility.

End of problem.

June would rather get on Pebble Beach, the day before the Open is played, with Justin and Romo. Maybe with Michael as well.

I swear to God this horse thing is the biggest joke and embodies why other schools look at us as a complete non-entity. We care more about our mascots than our team. My God.

Why? Because the mascot is the only thing that has laid a beat down on our opponents the last 20 or so years.

I must say, I went into a restaurant in Florida the other day on my short trip down there, and they gave me the senior menu, and I said I'm under 60, and they said, but to us, seniors are over 55. I thought WOW, I'm officially a geezer!

When you do get to 60 you can add old fart to your resume too. :lol:

And the whole thing was thrust upon us by a clueless AD, President and head Coach that should have been worrying about other things and/or having a little common sense that this was not the way to go. If you want to blame anyone, blame them for trying to bring on this unnessesary and stupid change in the middle of football season.

A-

I had to subtact points for your misguided usage of the word narly. Narly means bad or uncool in surfer speak. The correct word would have been "Rad" or "Sick"

problem is the CUSA prez is the same guy who we asked to pretty please NOT schedule a home game on fall break, and to please NOT schedule a game on Texas-OU weekend. Oh well. Maybe they already asked him.

Oh, yeah? Try replacing Uga the Bulldog at UGA and see what a "joke" that is.

If I recall correctly the UGA mascot is a bulldog correct? Is our mascot a pony and our team name a Mustang? Thanks again.

There isn't a major college Football program in Texas or the South where it would be possible to change the mascot-oh ignorant one. Don't know much about what you are talkin about-do you. The laughing would be AT SMU for attempting to flush tradition down the toilet

Let's try a better analogy. Try replacing "revelie" with a rotwiler and see how the Aggies react.
