MASCOT MADNESS: School spirit symbols on the chopping block nationwide

I find Alabama offensive and I don't really know what their mascot is

Campus Reform?

Campus Reform?

This!

Love those Hogs..Both teams in Alabama have mascot issues. Roll Tide/ Elephant /Wearing Bear Bryant outfits vs War Eagle/Tigers ( too many tigers). Can't stand either, but I can't find any offensive. Just Remember there is only one Razorback!

What's funny is Ole Miss is "the rebels" with ole reb and now a shark, plus a bear. Those tards don't even know what the hell they are themselves. Yet they compiled all kinds of black talent throughout the years knowing damn good and well that that town is founded on racist culture and history. Yet now people want to get offended? Lol! Get real and open your eyes and know a little about American history before you choose to get offended. OR don't support that school. Same goes for all schools if you're a snowflake.

Edit: this easy for me to say as a middle class white male.

Disclaimer for those who choose their right to take offense.

Their mascot is an elephant, but most Bama fans can't spell elephant hence "Row Tide".

I've been messing with my Ole Miss friends for a few years now about the Black Bear Shark Rebels.

in all seriousness ...it is kind of interesting to watch the changes and what folks are trying to change.

Some religions are anti pork so our day could come.

As our demographics change, so might what is acceptable.

I know of at least two high schools that are still called the Rebels

I think Arkansas St. should have kept the Indians.

Is Southside still, or did I hear they changed?

Middle TN are the raiders which originally was a Confederate soldier that hid and fought a gorilla style warfare. Since stones river battle field was there it only made sense.

Now they've changed it to a horse and a lightning bolt which makes no sense. But they stuck with it and I'm ok with it.

OM otoh didn't. Now they look like idiots for it.

If you’re referring to FS Southside, it changed to the Mavericks.

Having lived through that controversy it was a huge eye roller.

I’m offended that the hog is now facing forward on most Razorback shirts.
