can I blame it on a long day at work...? Back when I was a teenager, Stanford University in California change their mascot from the Indians to the Cardinal, due to the pressure from the Native American community, (who were then called Indians). My last name is Cardinal. I remember my Dad and I jokingly making plans to go protest at Stanford because they didn't ask permission from our family to use our name.carolinagirl wrote:Summerville H.S. Mighty GREENWAVE! Colors green and gold. Helmets have a G like Greenbay Packers.
College was Eagles.
Son's high school mascot is Blue Devils. Named for the French special forces in WWI. Just like Duke Univ. Blue Devils.
We had a team physician running a series of ads to change the name so we weren't glorifying Satan. Only problem was, his name was Dr. Hellman, and he isn't changing HIS name!
not only permission...but pay to use the name too...Salukulady wrote: Back when I was a teenager, Stanford University in California change their mascot from the Indians to the Cardinal, due to the pressure from the Native American community, (who were then called Indians).

Gosh, I coulda been rich if we'd just followed through. Do you think we woulda had to share our proceeds with the Catholic church?nycfeat wrote:not only permission...but pay to use the name too...Salukulady wrote: Back when I was a teenager, Stanford University in California change their mascot from the Indians to the Cardinal, due to the pressure from the Native American community, (who were then called Indians).
