college mascot poll

[writing irish]

We're having an amusing discussion at the office today. A discussion about a particular university's mascot led a to a discussion of the "gayest" mascot of all major colleges. Hopefully no one finds this offensive...the discussion actually began when a gay man here at the office said "I've always thought that (X University's mascot) was totally gay." All in good fun, folks.

The finalists:

Arizona State

Kansas

New Mexico State (this was a divisive candidate here)

San Diego (another controversial inclusion)

Seton Hall

I'm voting for Bucco Bruce's cousin.

The university of Minnesota has a coming out day every spring, and every year Goldy Gopher is the first one to jump through the ceremonial lavender door, to chants of "Goldy's Gay, clap, clap, clap-clap-clap."

so yeah, I vote for him.

gonna need a translation, slappy.

"Here's a quarter, go call Travis Tritt?" Is he an expert on gay mascots?

"Where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking and all the children are above average."

Poll options updated.

Zeke, I think the translation is "Here's a quarter, call someone who cares." Fair enough, slappy. I never intended this to be a serious topic.

One of his songs is titled, "Here's a quarter, call someone who cares"

One of his better songs. I also like "It's A Great Day To Be Alive," even though it's kind of dorky. We can always make this a country music thread instead.

 

[zeke12]

Good to know my translation skills were only flawed here by a lack of knowledge regarding the lyrical stylings of Travis Tritt.

I still vote Goldy, although my second-place ballot would be punched for New Mexico State, in honor of Brokeback Mountain.

San Diego...........a whale's vagina.

The Heidelberg Student Princes belong on this list.

 

[zeke12]

A slightly-more-metrosexual Goldy, whose androgny is enhanced by the fact that the female mascot is named Goldie, and the only change is longer eyelashes.

For a while, it seemed as if the majority of the Big Ten mascots in the team logos were jerking off. Purdue, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan State ... they always had their fists in an odd spot.

And DePaul's old logo seemed as if the Blue Demon was taking a dump in a basketball hoop.

Of course there's the famous penis-tongued Kentucky logo.

May as well add Duke. A few years back, a college basketball preview mag (Sporting News?) actually had some whackjob from the Church of Satan rate the mascots of the schools with a demonic theme. The ASU Sun Devil didn't impress the Church of Satan idiot. He liked the DePaul logo...this was after DePaul changed their logo from the little cute demon ****ting through a hoop to a more evil-looking character. Anyway, here's Duke:

Penis-tonuged Kentucky logo?

Sadly, "Penis Tongue Kentucky Logo" does not return any matches on Google.

But I know the one you're talking about.

This one?

One of his songs is titled, "Here's a quarter, call someone who cares"

My response was meant to be tongue in cheek, though I didn't realize Tritt had a song by that title. I thought he was saying "call someone who gives a ****." Figured he was making some sort of leap with "Tritt" sounding like "****" or implying that Tritt is ****.

It's gotta be San Diego. Look at it. Him, looking like he's folding laundry while holding that drapery between his dainty thumb and forefinger all while dressed in a vest and some sort of tight/nylon/spandex undershirt.

 

[slappy4428]

Actually, I've always wanted to do that with photos and see who got it... was purely tongue in cheek too...

And personally, I've always thought that No(tre) **** Leprechaun was a little light....
