Spuzz Nothing derogatory in either of those names. However, it would be with any mascot depicting said names; mascot would have to go, much as the Fighting Illini's had to go. And my high school mascot also got the ax, iirc, but name remains. Warriors!! Most times it's not so much the name, but what is representing that name. My name is Rex, so I try not to disparage the canine community(VERY large segment of the population, btw), by pissing on things when out for a walk. Nor would I ever shit in someone's yard.
