What if you had to pick a new mascot

[bbtds]

If suddenly the SLU administration declared the Billiken offensive what new mascot would you pick?

[wgstl]

Wtf 

[Buster]

Saint Louis Rams 2.0! A10 needs another ram mascot.

You know, I don’t think this is a bad idea. This program needs to shed whatever has been cursing them since 1948 and if it’s The Billiken then so be it.

[DeSmetBilliken]

That’s a clown question bro.

the day we become anything but a billiken i'm looking for a new alma mater.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.....

[Billiken Rich]

Yes.....let's dump one of the few original mascots in the country.......

Just a little history on this OP:

 

He is a Valpo fan, Valpo is changing their Crusader mascot due to pressure concerning the, alleged, less than ideal connotation that goes along with the term "crusader". He showed up when SLU first played valpo years ago and for some reason still pops in from time to time. It's weird to say the least.

Friars and demon deacons next?

I’d be more concerned that my school had to drop its law school, failed to sell/merge the law school, drop half of its athletics programs, defund the rest of them. All while playing in a high school gym and being on the verge of bankruptcy. Then I’d worry about a yellow and brown crusader.

I am offended by the Billiken because it isn’t this. We should implement the change immediately.

I had to look up whatever it is that Valpo uses for a mascot. And what do I find? It's Crusaders and you are dropping it. So...what are you doing here asking us about new mascot names? You can't think of one of your own?

[Major Majerus]

The Billiken is the god of things as they ought to be - who has a better mascot... or god as far as it goes?

Saint Louis:

Rivermen

Kings

Moundbuilders

... and I saved the best for last: Archers.

LOL, a troll rating for having a little fun with a silly topic. Recommendation: No caffeine after noon.

[billikenbill]

So, any word on whether the Archers, er, Billikens have scheduled a game yet?

And Riverwomen.

It did not work for UMSL so...

[billikenbill]

Forget Rivermen, I’m stuck on Archers. Mississippians would be OK, but Mississippi messed it up.

Reminds me of UMass. The women's team is the Minutewomen. I mean come on, some things just don't make sense used by both genders. (And I know the Riverwomen thing supposedly had sexual connotations, so not quite the same thing.)

Spanish land grant Dons in California?

This has to rank among the worst threads on this Board of all time.
