  1. hey Mark great artical we have the same opions

    Jason Payne

    1. thanks, Jason. your spelling is awful, though

  2. I'm aa little disappointed that my Nittany Lions didn't even make the honorable mentions cut. Nice picks though.

    1. I considered them but my friend didn't like that at all, so they weren't there. But they were certainly in contention.

      my friend was kind of filling in for me while I was gone...

    3. That's okay; I'm just glad we won last night! What a game! I was at one of the PSU campuses watching the game with the students; awesome time!

    4. That's okay; I'm just glad we won last night! What a game! I was at one of the PSU campuses watching the game with the students; awesome time!

    5. That was a good game, but that was the most boring first half I've even seen. Was the final score 13-7 or 13-6? Can't remember.

    6. Yeah, it was a slow start; both teams have a very strong defense, coupled with the fact that that's a huge rivalry game. Joepa got his first win in 30 years at the 'Shoe! Yes, the final was 13-6.

  3. I hate to be nitpicky but the Hawaii mascot for football is just the Warriors.

    1. oh, because on my site for research they were listed as the Rainbow Warriors. Sorry about the confusion, it will be changed.

      sorry, my friend was just filling in for me...

  4. Cool thanks for changing that...

    1. your welcome. But "Rainbow Warriors" does tend to sound cooler than just the "Warriors".

  5. That's by far the WORST mascot rating ever! Golden Knights, eagles, panthers...... all horrible.... How is Sparty not even ranked or honorably mentioned and the Wolverines which DON'T even have a mascot given honorable mention.... just retarted

    1. Uh, if it was so bad, why did you comment?

      It's an EDITORIAL, you know!

      Anyway, I suppose you live in Michigan, or else you used to. Because the Spartans are in Michigan and main rivals with Michigan, also in Michigan...

      And by the way, have you ever read about the Spartans of Ancient Greece? They killed babies who weren't strong, they threw spears at the soldiers-in-training and told them not to flinch, and every year they declared war on their slaves and killed any they felt like killing! Really nice, isn't it?!
