Total load of crap, for multiple reasons:

The top being Marquette is too high.

The top being Marquette is too high.

You have to admit it is better than the Billiken, which is #2 on this list.

No chance Golden Eagles is better than Billiken. At least Billiken has a bit of uniqueness to it.

Bleuteax flopped, but the blue blob is a hit. go figure.

Where would Willie Wompum rank?

[tower912]

1,000,000,000 on a scale from 1-27

I'm surprised creighton's SID hasn't freaked on this yet. They tend to get up in arms when people spell in Blue Jays when it's Bluejays.

Sister Chick,

It is a Furry Bird, for heaven's sake. I'm surprised they  didn't rank some high school mascot ahead of it.

Birds don't have fur. They have feathers. Until we dress our eagle in a complete feather costume, it will still be an unauthentic furry bird. What a furry bird has to do with Marquette is anyone's guess.

Maybe if the group that wanted to go back to Warriors had put another zero in their offer, the Jesuits would have listened.

Golden Avalanche would have been near the top of this list.

I preferred the Marquette Inquisition, after a part of history brought about by the Jesuits!

[real chili 83]

Jumping Jesuit's, eh?

[Lennys Tap]

Golden Avalanche would have been near the top of this list.

Absolutely. Not as high as Warriors, but right behind it.

Not picking on you, Wades - I've seen "unique" qualified (more unique, e.g.) here often by different posters - but either something is unique or it's not. Kinda like pregnant.

True. I just meant to put emphasis on the fact that the "Golden Eagles" is about as bland/boring/common as it gets in sports mascots.

"Marquette was the first Catholic university in the world to admit both women and men." 

The mascot argument gets very tiring, but we should go back to Warriors and make Joan of Arc our mascot.  Embrace the fact we went co-ed first.

Blueteaux sucked major ass. Not sure if the committee was sober when dat passed. Sorry to rip Ma on Ma's Day, hey?

[Golden Avalanche]

Golden Avalanche would have been near the top of this list.

Co-sign.

[Billy Hoyle]

LMU gets extra points for naming their lion "Iggy."

[GooooMarquette]

So it's an article about mascots, but Detroit is 11th out of 27 because of its logo?

Someone might wanna tell the writer that logos and mascots are not the same thing....

[Johnny B]

Mascots are for kids. Well, unless you're a UW fan and you think Bucky Badger (which is a awesome mascot) is something more than a student in a costume.

Fact.

They're better at thinking their mascot is more than a student running around in a costume?

Yeah.
