CollegeHoopsNet: "I’m anti-UVM because of their nickname" PDF Print E-mail
Written by VT Sports Network Article   
Saturday, 21 February 2009
"Buffalo at Vermont – ESPN2 Saturday 1pm

I’m anti-UVM because of their nickname, the Catamounts.  Western Carolina has had the same moniker since 1933.  Vermont should really change to something that honors the state’s most famous residents: Ben & Jerry.  I propose the Vermont Chunky Monkeys."

Source: Any Luster to ESPN's BracketBusters? 

This guy is smoking the Michael Phelps stuff.  I know it was meant to be humorous but come on--Telling Vermont to change their mascot because Western Carolina has had the same name since 1933.  The Univ. of Vermont was only founded in 1791.  Slow day over on CollegeHoopsNet, huh?
