Today, the ACLU on behalf of a group of bobcats, panthers and bears, posted a grievance with the majority of state school athletic associations. These animals are offended that their names have been used to represent high school athletics in a "hostile and abusive" way. Several high school coaches were asked how they felt about this sudden indictment of animal discrimination. Ironically the majority responded the same, "It is unpossible that the great sport of football, in anyway, would want to disgrace these fine creatures, that is unless they were deer, then we would shoot them down and skin em!"stated the Perryton Fighting Panthers Coach/Principal.
Unfortunately, several other animals have found it necessary to entertain the idea of filing their own grievance. At a recent meeting of beaver, cardinals and mustangs, the idea of boycotting any future posing for hats, jerseys and banners was discussed. "Over the years, this has made my life harder. I lost a job on a damn build in Haterfield because of this." stated the Bakersfield Beaver.
We can only hope that this wont affect the NCAA!!! Oops...too late!
p.s. - maybe a bit silly...bit no sillier than the NCAA..
