Who was it that said . . .

. . . nothing worth a damn was ever designed by a committee?

Arkansas State pisses even more tax dollars down the drain by hiring a "Mascot Consultant."

I have seen no evidence that the suddenly PC NCAA will cover the cost of it's Sensitive Unfunded Mandate.

Proof decision-by-committee is just stupid.

Hey ASU mascot selection committee retards, how, exactly, does one draw an "Express"?

Hack the Sun poll with stupid choices (not like you have any choice but to anyway) here.

You'd think someone along the line could have come up with "Scorpions," considering how many of the little monsters scurry about all over the area.

But no. We have retarded possibilities like the ASU A's.

And in the history of mankind, has a mallard EVER inspired ANYONE on to victory? Did Braveheart have a mallard sidekick we don't know about?

Fucking retarded, that's what it is. Just absolutely fucking retarded.

Oh, JESUS F***ING CHRIST!!!

Arkansas Tech gets in on the Political Correctness action, too!

The school also cited concern by the committee over evolving connotations of the term Wonder Boy.

"These connotations include slurs about an individual's manhood or race, and the slurs have been used against Tech when recruiting," the release said.

...

The school expressed concern that current nicknames "do not lend themselves to a visual identity suitable for printed materials and other marketing initiatives."

The school said some students have dressed up as superheros, which it said "is not consistent with the spirit or the proud history of the name."

Is there anyone on the planet who genuinely finds the term "Wonder Boy" offensive?

A little silly, yes. But no sillier than, say, the Green Wave.

But if you HAVE to change it, I say go with "Skunk Apes."

Or Chupacabri.

Supposedly, there's some survey floating around about it, but I can't find it.
