    Sorry about the public humiliation of the Jayhawks, Oz. You gotta admit, though, the bird's a little fruity. All of the various Jayhawk statues around Lawrence are kinda cool, though.

    I'm wondering if Duke's showing in this poll is because people really think the blue devil's gay or just cause people hate Duke.

    I remember an old version of the Kentucky Wildcat that was kind of an amateurish drawing, but I can't remember the curling dick-tongue. Too bad they changed it. I like it when schools I dislike have dumb logos.

    Thanks to those who participated in this admittedly foolish excercize. It's a holiday, none of the people I need to interview are available, so I have nothing to do on this fine Monday...my mood is far from serious.

    Speaking of President's Day and adolescent humor, I finally figured out why "Log Cabin Republicans" have their name. To think that all this time I thought there was a more scatalogical nomenclature at work...

    c'mon, no one thought bucky badger was gay-looking? the turtleneck is really what pushes it over the edge. plus, he's licking an ice-cream cone in this pic.

    Wisconsin and Notre Dame have been added.

    So far, it's Duke and Kansas in a catfight for the title. Winner gets to fellate the trophy known as the Bucco Bruce Creamcicle. (Showing just Bruce here because the actual trophy is NSFW)

    RE: Kentucky Wildcats "penis tongue" logo.

    After some googling, I found out they quit using either during or after the 1994 season. It just said "changed it in 1994 after three years."

    So, if any designers/deskers out there have an old file to post, you're talking about a logo at least 13 years old.

    No problems here. From the Jayhawk to the Rock Chalk chant, I love that KU stumps some with its traditions. They are unique.

    As for the poll, did no one mention the scarfed one? We Are ...

    I will reset the poll to accomodate everyone who had to vote for "other." So cast your votes again.

    Kentucky has been added in honor of the short-lived dicktongue. Penn State, too.

    I'm no fan of Wildcat Nation...would love to see Kentucky come from behind (ahem) to win this poll.

    This poll's open-ended (cough), but for simplicity's sake, we'll crown a queen this evening at 7pm Eastern Time.

    That's close, B-Dub. The Bucco Bruce Creamcicle has a similar design, except it's orange crystal and has Bruce's head on the end.

    Paging Zeke, your Gophers have no votes in the newly-reset poll, Zeke please pick up the Maroon-and-Gold courtesy phone...
