saw this posted on another board. they were discussing the Ole Miss mascot situation:

OP
As a native New Englander, I am not impressed with Southern history, but that being said, they (Ole Miss) should show a little pride and find a mascot that represents their past as well as the present and future. Certainly there are more creative students than the idiot Star Wars freaks.
If I am not mitaken there are several great writers, like William Faulkner from Mississippi. Not sure how to turn that into a mascot, but an author is better than a fictional (science fiction) character.

Response:
Maybe they should name themselves the Ole Miss Yankees and make their mascot a diminutive Jewish investment broker named Milton with massive thick rimmed glasses from New York who rides around the stadium in a hybrid Volvo and comes out of the car with a latte and an asthma inhaler with rainbow gay pride symbols all over his suit and an AIDS quilt as his superman cape.

BOOM!!!

No way they'd pick that.

Why not have 2 mascots? A Plantation owner and his wife dressed up in mid 1800's attire who attend all the games and walk around the Grove before the games? Ole Miss needs to embrace their southern heritage, not just a singular civil war.

There is only one man Ole Miss could change their mascot to. A man who represents everything good about America, a man who is a true rebel himself even if he's from North Carolina, a man whose writings have inspired millions, a man who stands up for pork based products. He doesn't let women push him around and he loves his family. If he doesn't like the crap going on around him, he let's people know about it.



I'm talking about King Curtis (not the jazz saxophonist)

What would you make Ole Miss mascot be?

quote:


I think the riverboat gambler makes the most sense. Either that or a non-descript soldier of some kind.




A Black Bear seems to be the most popular choice because of Teddy hunting them in MS.

I think it would be great to have a big arse live black bear caged on the field like LSU's tiger. Maybe a bear roar when we score or something

Plus I think that a teddy bear with an Ole Miss jersey on it would make a lot of money for the school.



Interesting. I think only Maine has that as their current mascot. But would it still be the Rebels? I guess if Auburn calls themselves Tigers and has an eagle for a mascot, then Ole Miss can have a Black Bear...
