I believe that is a family name. We had a town whose boys' team was the Rams and the girls' team was the Ramettes. (It used to be a law in Iowa that whatever the boys' team was named, the girls' team had to be that name with "ettes" added to it.)

I was and will always be a Beaver!!!!!

I remember a football game where the opposing team had a sign

" Lets bust those beavers!" Now I know, and that is some funny stuff.

That one goes way back and was chosen because Orofino was home to a state insane asylum. They wouldn't get away with it these days.

The best (or worst) one is a college - Scottsdale AZ community college with the Fighting Artichokes. Their mascot is Artie the Artichoke.
The mascot is a protest. When they built the college they had all the students in temporary classrooms. The admin envisioned being a sports power but the students wanted emphasis on academics. When they got a wad of money for classrooms, the admin instead built an elaborate gym. The students were less than thrilled. To placate them, the admin gave the them the power to choose their own mascot. The students chose the Fighting Artichokes as a protest.

So many schools with such offensive mascots...

With the ongoing march into the abyss of political correctness some suggestions might be in order.

Gay Gladiators

Terrible Twinkle Toes

Combating Queers

Terrific Transsexuals

Powerful Poofters

Dastardly Dykes

Genderless Giants

Ann Arbor could have the Explosive Achmeds

And somewhere in Colorado, 4:20 Puffers.

You know what they say about those Creekers....


Midland High School Chemic here.

Still not sure exactly what a "Chemic" is, but being the hometown of Dow Chemical, one can guess.

Look there the Trojans have look to be as organized as apron dress on a motel floor

The Trojans really need to get some better penetration

The question arises as to why his testicals are in his throat, below his epiglottis. (Speaking of epiglottis, didn't the Giants have a running back named Epiglottis Anderson?)

Youngstown State University, home of the Fighting Penguins. Boy, if that doesn't instill the fear of God in an opponent, what does?

One of my favorites was the Belfry Bats in Belfry, Montana.

In Worland, WY the high school is the Warriors and the junior high was the Papooses until they changed it to Braves a few years ago.
