"i'm willing to do anything
to calm the storm in my heart
i've never been the praying kind
but lately i've been down upon my knees
not looking for a miracle
just a reason to believe"

in highschool we were the Purple Tornadoes, quite intimidating isn't it?  At college though we are the Oneonta Red Dragons, same as SUNY Cortland, we stole it from them.....oops......

We are the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Panthers!

What What! LMAO.

My high school team was the Milwaukee Juneau Pioneers, and our mascot was Bucky Pioneer. I could not find a picture of him on their website, but it is basically a dude in a costume. I was just kind of reading all of the stuff there... I miss high school :cry:

"Juneau's Chess Team has developed a winning tradition. It has had seven consecutive winning seasons. During the 1999-2000 season the team had a record of 13-3, including regular season, playoff and state tournament play. The team finished third in the conference playoffs, fourth at State, and the JV team also finished fourth at State. Juneau had six players earn medals at State in 2000. The varsity qualified for the National Tournament with its fourth place finish."

Damn right, we regulated that season. Holla  :lol: ... and may I add we got screwed at state, we were in the championship game, lost (I was one of the two guys on the team to get points in that match), and got bumped down two spots by teams we had beaten that weekend! Anyway, we regulated at Nationals though too so it is all good  :wink:

In high school we were the Bulldogs.
At UC Davis we were the Aggies (aka Mustangs)
At MJC we were the Pirates
At CSU Stanislaus we are the Warriors
I think you underestimate the level of my sneakiness

My school's mascot is - brace yourselves - the Violet!

Yes, we're the fighting violets.  Watch out you other Division III teams.  If you make fun of us we'll sic our aspiring actors, directors and business people on you!   8)

I think our mascot is meant to be the color, as opposed to the flower.  But I selected plant on the poll cause our mascot used to be a person dressed up like a flower.  Back in the day, we used to have a guy dress in a purple spandex body suit *grimace* with a big flower head and he'd dance around at basketball games.  Intimidating, no?  A few years ago our university president decided to change our mascot because the dancing flower wasn't working.  So, our unofficial mascot became the bobcat.  How did they come up with the bobcat?  It's named after our library's card catalogue system!!!  Pretty desperate, huh?  Our library is called Bobst Library.  When our card catalogue system was computerized, it was called the Bobst Catalogue system.  Bobcat, get it?  So now there's a guy in a bobcat suit.  All the gym vans have bobcats on it, there's bobcat merchandising, etc.

And that is the story of how the violets have a bobcat cheering at our games.  (Pssst, we're still the violets.)

THE END.
