I liked someone's suggestion of Joan of Arc.  Just think how progressive we would have looked to have a female mascot for men's sports.

Does anyone know of in college athletics (No cheerleaders don't count)?

The Delaware Blue Hens

Nice try, but Delaware Blue Hen is actually a breed of gamecock.

And this mascot is definitely a dude.

  "Marquette and Seattle are to be commended for team nickname changes that the Washington, D.C. pro football team should take as instructive. But they could’ve picked something more interesting."

  ok hards, my man...what iffffffffff the author said marquette and seattle whimped out to the minority viewpoint instead of "commended"?  would that still be respecting other human beings?  in this instance, the ones who disagreed with the name change and felt the name "warrior" did not necessarily refer to native americans as it once did
