So the following school mascots must be lies: Navy has a goat; they are the Midshipmen. A&M has a Collie; they are the Aggies. Tennesse has a hound dawg (a blue tick I think); they are the volunteers. Army has a mule. It's called tradition.
yes they are
Go tell that to those schools. I talked to a Naval Academy grad who said that if anyone messed with their goat, they would be shot.

Things have never been the same since "pogo stick" Peruna graduated. He was the best. The ones that have followed him are, at the most, part time and lazy.

I wouldn't say what he's saying is dumb. Arrogant perhaps, and most definitely ignorant. Not the greatest combination. Oh well, the young kids are gonna have their "opinions," you know

Reasons to keep Peruna 1. No rider needed, emblematic of the wild mustang 2. Likes to bite female cheerleaders on the rear 3. Feisty 4. Tradition 5. Likes to create mayhem now and then a. Killing Fordham Ram b. Kicking BEVO c. Getting busy with Misty d. Leaving a gift at TCU e. Scaring the Baylor Bear f. Running through the Rice band. 6. Has cojones
Reasons not to keep Peruna 1. Small 2. Has cojones 3. Does not play well with others 4. Cannot be ridden 5. Not hip or modern. 6. JJ doesn't like him (probably dropped a load on JJ's shoes). I'll keep Peruna thank you.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

This is a good reason to keep him. I'd move this to the 'Reasons to Keep Peruna' list.

Both of my schools seem to be having mascot issues Grackles and tigers and bats - oh, my! ACC seeks a mascot Suggestions invited; college to hold online election open to public in spring. By Ralph K.M. Haurwitz AMERICAN-STATESMAN STAFF Thursday, October 29, 2009 The University of Texas has the longhorn. Texas Tech University, the masked rider. Stanford University, cardinal — the color, not the bird. Now Austin Community College wants a mascot, and it's seeking suggestions from students, employees and the public. "We think a mascot will help enhance school spirit, create a unique college identity and raise awareness of ACC's role in the community," said Brette Lea, the executive director of public information and college marketing and the chairwoman of a mascot search committee. "We hope to get hundreds of ideas. Some of them are going to be a little wacky. Some are going to be heartfelt. I hope people think outside the box," Lea said. ACC had a mascot — the eagle — in the 1970s, as well as official colors of black and gold, but those traditions faded, Lea said. Suggestions can be submitted online through Dec. 4 at www.austincc.edu/mascot. In addition, college representatives will accept suggestions Saturday and Sunday at a tent ACC plans to set up at 10th Street and Congress Avenue during the Texas Book Festival.

What a timely turn of events. As Stallion suggested, we have 2 horses they can have and all the publicity that goes with them. It'd get the school on the map and in the spotlight.
