Thoughts:
- I would have no problem with a return to the Oliver Twist-esque ballboy, though I could do without the drab Cleveland Browns color scheme.
- We seriously had a dog mascot named "Dammit"? Like, this was a thing?
- Wampo was Gumby's horse buddy, no?
- Cal the alligator/bottle opener makes almost as little sense for W&M as a pantsless griffin, so good to know the school has backed asinine mascot choices for over a century.
- Wampo II: Electric Horsealoo
- We know make it to the Dan Snyder-sponsored portion of our program. I would think the headdress might slow down a running back, but what do I know. Also, the school should demand royalties from cult classic The Warriors as they obviously stole the name and baseball bat concept from our mascot. Come out to play, indeed.
- Oh, hey, Wami. [No one share this infographic with Mike Wise, please.]
- Amazingly, Col. Ebirt is not the worst mascot in this picture.
- And of course, the coup de grâce, our current mascot, a legendary Greek creature with the body, tail, and back legs of a lion; the head and wings of an eagle; and an eagle's talons as its front feet. AND NO PANTS. Makes total sense.

robin thicke doesn't seem creepy at all
maybe he should be our mascot
Pour one out for Louis Zamperini. Unbroken is a must read for anybody who wants to understand what a WWII POW endured. His 97 years on the planet were an amazing tale.
Teej, why does the griffin need pants? You wouldn't expect to see pants on either an eagle or a lion. And they don't make the mascots anatomically correct. Unforunately. That would be outstanding.
I demand Dockers on this thing.
Is the mascot a female griffin?
the teej has made this graphic his twitter avatar, which makes me very happy
I believe even the Thundercats wore slacks on their off days.
Goofy wears pants and drives a car. Pluto's a dog.
Dammit the Dog is fantastic. best dog name since Navin R Johnson named his pooch.
In Rob's house that dog would get very confused.
In Leesburg, "dagnabbit" is the exclamation of choice.
Dammit was Bill Cosby's brother. Along with Jesus Christ.
Just poured 4 minis of woodford reserve in a nalgene with a ginger ale. Right there next to the ticket counter. Wouldn't have been time to stop. I'll never pay airport prices again! Or fly sober.
craig sager's kid seems like a good egg
Did Zman drop a Stand By Me reference earlier? I think he did.
My kid isn't real big on pants lately.
