They must think Bulldogs and Tigers are cool mascots. Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country? Post by: inteller on January 21, 2008, 07:12:21 am i dunno, those Salukis look ****in rad. If I had a rabid looking dog as my mascot I think i'd be all about that.
I never knew TUs mascot was called Captain Cane...I have to agree that is pretty stupid. Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country? Post by: joiei on January 21, 2008, 07:42:41 am Look at the name of that site, Drivl, I think they live up to (or down to possibly in this case) to their name.
Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country? Post by: cannon_fodder on January 21, 2008, 08:28:21 am Doing a mascot of an inanimate object is kind of hard. Really not even an object - it's a weather event. How the hell do you do that?
I've embraced the badness. Nothing else we can do really. It is a perennial point of discussion with other fans along with the Hurricane name in generally.

Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country? Post by: CoffeeBean on January 21, 2008, 11:53:21 am The list selected the Stanford Tree as the worst mascot. This screams idiocy.
First, the Stanford Tree is not even an "official" mascot: quote: Second, because the mascot wasn't created by the administration, a marketing firm, or some other vapid institution, it's the one mascot that actually reflects the students it represents. The Stanford Tree may be the best mascot out there. Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country?

Maybe the state department of libraries could use Captain Cane in their reading promotion -- Cap'n Cane says ... Read, y'all! Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country? Post by: jackbristow on January 21, 2008, 02:39:39 pm Geeeez, you guys sound ridiculous for taking that thing so seriously. Read what they said about each...it's freaking HILARIOUS! Don't be too quick to take offense to it and sit back and laugh a little bit. Yes, those mascots are great, but all mascots are subject to being made fun of one way or another. Give me break. It's all in fun!
I always thought TU's mascot being the Golden Hurricane was pretty funny myself. Ever heard of a "Golden Shower?" Well if you have, then imagine a Golden Hurricane!!! Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country? Post by: grahambino on January 21, 2008, 03:27:31 pm that was a funny read.
thanks for the link. Title: TU mascot number two worst in the country? Post by: bigdtottown on January 21, 2008, 04:20:43 pm I just read that...it's hysterical. "Dude, that's a duck"...priceless.

Actually, I thought the old Huffy was pretty cute, though his facial expression did remind me of a baby trying to fart... |
