What was your High School Team Mascott?Follow

Is that anything like a Golden Shower?

Am I allowed to say that here?

I dunno, the "Fighting" prefix in front of "Irish" seems to indicate plurality to me.


Yes, a wave is made of distinct parts, but separately, those water droplets do not retain any of the properties of a wave. The point is that they're talking about a single wave (as opposed to the team in that crappy "Coach" tv show, they were called the Orlando Breakers, i.e. multiple waves).


If a school's nickname was the Charging Macaroni, I would take it to mean that each player was representative of a single Macaroni noodle, and so together they were the Macaronis, rather than the teaming being one collective Macaroni Dish.


If a school was called the Florida Fish, for example, I would interpret it as plural, synonymous with the Florida Fishes.


And I can't believe I just wrote this post, but whatever, I'm bored.


I fully expect a scathing comment from pickleprince shortly.

Fully illustrating that I am, in fact, at least equally as bored as trickybeck, all I can say is you are right. We were wrong at the time. All I can say is that at the time we were sure that was one of the "major" universities the newspaper (San Diego Union, in fact) referred to.

Although the Irish, as a race, can be singular as a people, your Charging Macaroni argument has persuaded me.

Nah, it's plural allways. It can be used as an adjetive singularly, like: "I'm Irish, French, Scottish and Japanese" (which i happed to be) but as a noun it's allways plural. The singular form being "Irishman". You'd never say "he's an Irish" But you might say "they are group of Irish"

I'm going to high school next year, but my brother and sister are there right now (my dad and basically most of my family went there as well). The school's mascot is a conch. Who wants to be called a conch?

Too bad the high school couldn't pick a tiger, like my elementary school...or a buccaneer, like my middle school. I go from being an animal, to a pirate, and then to a defenseless (and pink) sea thing.

the Trojan's.

We used to throw condoms at 'Pep Rallies'.

Well, 'we' as in my friends and I... ^^

The Eagles.
I distinctly remember the one that was perched above the school falling three stories to it's demise.
Damn those cables were a ***** to cut!

The Red Devils.

My University was the Crusaders.

Ironically, my HS's colors were Maroon and Gold.
Uni: Maroon and Orange.

my high school didn't really have a mascot - we had a concept - we were "the Governors." Our mascot picture consisted of a top hat and a cane in our colors of maroon and white. Man, my school was ghetto.

Why when I was your age we didn't have high schools. We painted things on the cave walls and read them.
Ok seriously, the mascot was "The Colonial". Basically the same thing as the now banned MSU rebel.
