If a school that makes it's students sign an agreement agreeing they wont drink, do drugs or engage in premarital sex; can have Cougars as its mascot/nickname..why cant a fucking high school??????

"However, since the last Board meeting, we have received numerous e-mail messages and phone calls from parents and patrons in Draper asking us to reconsider the inclusion of 'Cougars' as a mascot option," David S. Doty,

In my experience - this usually means like 1 or 2.

I seen that and my brain almost exploded.

 

[supraman]

Also no mascots can be bears because it might offend fat hairy *** guys

 

[TSD]

I saw this, this is beyond ridiculous.

 

[supraman]

give me a mascot and i can figure out how it will offend someone.

 

[howcho]

I thought Cougar was a nice name for middle aged women.

I was feeling quite ashamed for having my first cougar moment the other day at Subway admiring the young man waiting on me till I looked over and saw these old ladies checking him out.

Another thing the show Cougartown ruined....



This makes no sense, the fucking kids can't even be cougars... what are they trying to imply that high school chicks are going to start sexually preying on infants?

More mascot shit, people up here thought this story was hilarious. I've said it in various FIGHTING SIOUX forums that eventually teams are going to just going to be called by their jersey colors with the way some people are



Asshats

Its Utah... Say no more.

PFFFFFFFFFFT I'm a fat, hairy *** guy... I don't take offense to that... Use the bear flag colors if you want while your at it. I'd love to see how that kind of logo would do, actually.

Maroons is offensive the way Bugs Bunny uses the term.

It probably hit to close to home for some of the moms.



From the linked article:



A new school in Utah looking for a team name and mascot won't be getting the "cougar," in part because of parents' complaints about the word's "negative double entendre."

But that would be considered discriminatory. Can't we just judge a team based on character, not color?

In a related story, the OSU Beavers are considering renaming their mascot to the vagina, in deference to women and beavers everywhere. The name beaver being too derogatory to both.

Sad but true. Worst part it is almost always a retort from someone who just wants to counter me on a decision. I usually ask for supporting data which I know never comes.
