ASU is a brother school here in Arkansas.  Step brother...true...but a brother none the less.

They are in need of a new mascot name.

I am opening suggestions here...to help them along their way. ;)

How about ASU join the GSC and play the rest of the in-state teams and we forget about the.  They would be playing to their level and we could concentrate all efforts to find a football coach.

Does san diego state have to change thier mascot? they should be something similar to them or hawaii.  Warriors or something along those lines.

I know this is an old joke, but:

The Possum's...

They play dead at home and get run over on the road.

I know, I know, it is an old dad joke.

We should just push them 40 or so miles and give them to Tennessee

The ASU tornadoes would be appropriate.  Many are too young to remember back in the late 60's and early 70' in consecutive years 2 tornadoes ripped through the city of Jonesboro.  Many were killed and much was destroyed. 

They could have some nice art work depicting twisters.  Hey, just having fun.

It would save 'em a little money replacing signs on campus, because the S and I would still be good.

Ages ago, I was an ASU student.  Yes, I am properly ashamed.  Back in the day (1996), several of us began a petition drive that had over 1400 signatures (about 15% of the student body at the time) wanting to change the name to the ASU Gorillas.   It had a historical precident from when the school was Arkansas A&M, wouldn't offend anyone, and would let the fans (both of them) express a creative sentiment.  I mean, going to the Convocation Center was boring-- but there was potential in going to 'The Zoo' or 'The Jungle'.  Heck, they could have even used 'Welcome to the Jungle' as a team anthem for highlight packages. Alas, the administration refused to even accept our petition, but I hold out hope that one day they'll be the ASU Gorillas.

After all, they monkey around, fling pooh at others, and haven't evolved beyond the stage of picking lice off of each other's backs.
No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

I seem to remember something like that.  As I recall, KAIT News did a story on it....on April 1st.  Was a good April Fool's Joke.

Yeah, a fair amount of effort was put into it, and KAIT turned it into a joke.  Bastards.    Yet more reason to hate Arkansas A&M at that fine suburb of Piggot (AKA Jonesboro)

I was at that game (I was living in Jonesboring at the time) and I sat with a relative, who happens to be an Administrator at U of A, and we sat by the press box on the floor. As the game was nearing its end, an inbred Indians fan tapped my uncle on the shoulder and handed him a sign and said "Sir, give this to Mr. Broyles for me, would you?" The sign said, Hey Frank, why not the ASU men? My uncle politely turned the sign upside down on the table and did not respond. At that moment I wanted to turn around and tell that moron what a complete idiot he was- For one, because Frank Broyles has nothing to do with Women's Athletics, and two, these teams just happened to meet in the NIT- it wasn't scheduled.  I also wanted to tell him to take that sign and shove it up his ***.  But, I bit my tongue mainly because I didn't want to embarass my uncle or the Razorback fan base.  But I also realized that I really the Hogs to have the chance to return the favor to the Indians. At least once, in either football or basketball- so people like that moron would just shut up- at least for a little while.  I know this thread isn't about hating the Indians or if they will ever play each other- thats a tired subject- But I just had to share that.

They would be playing to their level

I wouldn't talk too much smack, after all they have went to more bowl games than us in the past two seasons.

Especially since the only reason they went is because the real Sun Belt Champion wasn't bowl eligible (didn't have 6 wins).
