The Sicatoka Posted October 23, 2001 Share Posted October 23, 2001 There's a blurb about nicknames at some SD high schools and mention of the "Gamecocks" in here.http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,36956,00.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottM Posted October 24, 2001 Share Posted October 24, 2001 Try as I might, and as a lawyer I can be pretty creative and cynical in my thinking, I just cannot imagine how these clowns think that changing the name of a school's athletic team will have one iota of impact in the lives of real people, or animals. I suppose if all team names met with their approval, these people would find soon something else to whine about. "The team colors offend left-handed lesbians with dyslexia from Mongolia ..." Unreal.

leifolson Posted October 28, 2001 Share Posted October 28, 2001 As a flower lover, I vehemently oppose New York University's nickname of the Violets...it is demeaning to flowers everywhere to have their beautiful colors and petal textures used in such an unholy situation as a sporting event.
