Lot's of misunderstanding about the "Gamecock " name. It is not about any part of the anatomy of the bird, but the whole. During the Revoluntary War there was a SC Patriot General, Thomas Sumter that fought the British to a stand still. The English commander likend him to a "Fighting Gamecock" that would " fight to the death ". For a century or so that's what we did, but now we are most often " fighting to the win ". Thought our friends ought to know.

You're new; I would recommend introducing yourself at the O-T Lounge first. Just so everyone can get to know you.

Thanks, but we know about gamecocks.
We have also seen lightning, grass, people jumping, and ice cream cones. So, you can spare us those explanations.

Nothing to do with the name choice, everything to do with the marketing. Have to question any dad that let's his daughter go there under those circumstances.

That is an excellent post. I love history and trivia...yes I am boring.
Just don't expect any slack from the SECr. Folks here are ruthless. So sack up, join in and have fun.

Still waiting for Gameday at a SCar/Oregon State contest. A 24-3 halftime score with a 'Cocks pounding Beavers' ticker would be epic.

Dude, I think we all know that. People make the anatomical analogy not to disparage USC, but because we're in essence in a cyber-smoky poker room or Turkish bath, albeit with a few of our curvey soft couunerparts among the ahem game cocks.....

I am gonna guess most people knew it referred to the whole bird and not his weiner.
