Title: Everyone in the New League is Blue
Post by: TallTitan34 on February 28, 2013, 09:18:47 PM
7 of the 9 schools are blue:
Marquette, Georgetown, DePaul, Villanova, Seton Hall, Xavier, Butler

If Creighton and SLU were added, 9 of 11 schools would be blue.

Blue is prevalent in the Bible. Refers to Mary. Pretty fitting, eh?

We are yellow. Blue is our complimentary color.

But yeah, every school has some form of blue, gray or red in it. Having yellow makes us stand out quite obviously.

Yellow has the color of cowardice is antiquated.  It's now the color of choice for fire engines because it is the most visible color for them to be painted.  MU is yellow because like fire engines we seek to be seen, to stand out as we display composure and courage under pressure.

Hey!!  As a SLUHigh grad, I take issue with that remark.  The Billiken (and the Jr. Billiken) is a design of classic beauty and only has a passing resemblance to The Grinch of Madison.

St. John's needs to become the Blue Storm, and Providence switch to black and blue.  Then add Creighton, SLU, Richmond to get to 12.  We can be the Big Blue East!

We also wear blue for most road games, so I guess that means we are in! Look forward to seeing you guys in Richmond in a couple years.

Wrong. We have a primary color. It's gold *cough*yellow*cough*. What color do we emphasize, make shirts in, wear at home? The old-timers that still wear navy blue sweaters are annoying for hanging on. We are a yellow team, embrace it!

Give me yellow, orange, green any day over the blue/red every other team in every sport in every part of the country has.

But why did I give money to the Blue & Gold Fund?  Shouldn't it just be the Gold Fund?

It amazes me how the definition of words has changed over the years. Grass isn't grass anymore or being gay is not being happy.
