Our old mascot

Since lurker posts are now encouraged, I'd like to prove a point to a Col Reb sympathizer who refuses to believe that ANY real Ole Miss fan could ever support the Bear. Although I already know the...

Re: Our old mascot

I agree. I couldn't care less about the mascot. My three year old likes him. He gives my three year old something to look at instead of asking me questions while at the game, so the bear is okay with...

I became a OM fan in 1983 and grew up with Col Reb. That being said I understand the needed change. I didn't like it but after some thinking I came to understand and accept it. What I haven't accepted...

Re: Our old mascot

what makes those two mascots cooler than all the other mascots? How do they rank? Honest question I'd never heard anyone talk about their mascots being better than others

I was raised in Oxford, grew up wearing tons of CR apparel, graduated OM in 93, and I. don't. give. one. little. fuck that he's gone. And anybody that does care has ulterior motives...simple as that.

Re: Our old mascot

I support the bear. Honestly, never cared much about a mascot. But because so many assholes hate him, I love him.

Re: Our old mascot

I don't like the bear and prior to the sham election, didn't give two shits about Col. Reb either.  I think one reason many fans have cooled their jets concerning the Col. is that many of the old...

Re: Our old mascot

When I was a little kid I liked the Col.  Since that time I haven't cared about a mascot, except for becoming more and more convinced of the ridiculous racism of the rabid, pro-Col Reb crowd.  I...

Re: Our old mascot

Sorry Lyle, but when you said you preferred Col Reb to a bear, I made the assumption that you weren't too keen on our furry new mascot. No need to get bent out of shape. Maybe it's just the maple...

Rebel Flag skirts that came down to their ankles.  And I support the Bear, but I love my Colonel Reb (outline) Tervis Tumbler.

Re: Our old mascot

In the early 90's, I was more interested in what the girls were wearing than Col Reb. The Ole Miss ladies have done an outstanding job of changing with the times. I don't care about the Colonel or the...
