The Spice is wrong!!!

[HOUCajun]

_ Any thruth to the rumor that UL will finish the move to black by changing the mascot from Cayenne to Black Pepper? _

I like it! We could have a black peppercorn as a mascot, or a pepper grinder. This is going to be awesome!

_ Our homecoming slogan is worse than a fast food commercial. The spice is friggin right. Lets zero in on the problem, the cottonpicking pepper. This thing not only causes acid reflux, it has stripped us of a manly awesome mascot and given us an inanimate object used to stereotype our culture as spicy food guzzling inbred swine. Everything called cajun outside of lousiana is an abortion of a meal with black pepper dumbed brazenly on it with out regard for your intestine. I hate the pepper. The pepper looks horrible. The pepper gets no reaction at games. The pepper looks like a butt plug. I can go on for hours. I have the best homecoming slogan ever...ready for it......Beat the ____ing Owls!!! _

Find the source of the idea. Hit them as hard as Adam Sandler hit Bob Barker. Tell them "the price is WRONG, beeeotch!"

You beat me to it. Lets have Cayenne dress up like Happy Gilmore and get a Bob Barker look a like beat the ever living daylights out of him.

One of my brain damaged brothers or Zeebart, I can't remember.

Are you calling Z brain dead? I KNEW IT! Or are you two long lost brothers?

The slogan is pretty cheesy but I still like the pepper logo.

_ Reminds me of this...



...cracks me up every time. _

double kudos on the dune reference

Off-topic, but I saw a thread a while back on changing the emblem. Is UL really planning on changing the emblem?

Here's where some mad photshop skills would come in handy.



Alas, I have none.

Have any of you seen Brutus, The OHIO State mascot, up close. He/she/it is dressed in totally brown from head to feet with an acorn on the head. Now that comes close to the Pepper. At least the pepper is colorful.

_ You forgot that the pepper also scares small children. _

This is true for one of my nephews. He almost peed in his pants at the Cajundome one night because he was terrified that the Pepper was waiting for him on the concourse. I had to eventually carry him to the bathroom with him screaming, "Noooooo! HE'S UP THERE!!" like Satan himself was waiting. I tortured him for a long time with cries of, "Is that THE PEPPER, I see?" at all sporting events. Cuz I'm evil like that.
