UC Santa Cruz- Banana Slugs

Dartmouth- Keggy the keg

Just to name a few

[Windy]

Dude, the Mean Green are named after Mean Joe Greene, and their mascot is named scrappy. It doesn't get much better than that.

Buckeye seeds have usually ripened by September and are falling from the trees till early October. Collect your seeds from the ground soon after they fall and remove them from the husk. Take extra care not to let them dry out. Do not pull seed pods from the tree before the Buckeyes have ripened.
The seed should be planted in the fall at about a three inch depth in loose, well worked soil. Plant more buckeyes than you will need since only about fifty percent of them will germinate. Place two to three inches of mulch over the top of the buckeyes (straw or well rotted sawdust works nicely). The mulch will help hold the soil in place over the winter and should be removed in early spring after the ground thaws.

Keep the soil moist but not wet until after the seed has germinated. Then apply water as needed to maintain about one inch per week. Lightly fertilize with a balanced fertilizer once per month. Water and fertilizer should be stopped by mid-August to allow the seedling sufficient time to harden off before winter.

If you have the means to do so, light shade is recommended. Shade cloth or snow fence placed above the seedling during the hot summer months will help in preventing leaf scorch and reduce heat stress on the seedlings. Commercially available “tree shelters” are very good for these purposes, also.

Squirrels have a tendency to dig up seeds. If you are planting seeds in an area that has squirrels, it is recommended that a screen mesh be laid over the planted seeds before covering them with mulch. Remove the screen in the spring when you remove the mulch.

You should have buckeyes large enough to transplant in one to two years.

Key Points to Remember

Collect seed after it falls from the tree
DO NOT LET THE SEED DRY OUT
Plant the seed about three inches deep
Mulch over winter
Water, but do not over-water
Lightly shade if possible

How dare you insult IPFW. Dane Fife will smite you.

[Shane P. Hallam]

Worst is EASILY

NYU Violets.

[Ward]

Texas Agricultural & Mechanical Aggies. LAME

[bearsfan_51]

Anything pertaining to Native Americans. Not because they are racist (which depends on the mascot) but because they are so incredibly unoriginal.

[bearsfan_51]

Ohio State buckeyes .. someone posted what a buckeye is..its stupid

It's also a very delicious piece of candy however. Ohio is one of those weird mid-states with all kinds of ideosyncracies, Buckeyes is definately one of them.

[Big Mike]

so thats what IPFW stands for

[thetedginnshow]

Worst mascot: The Stanford tree
Worst team name: Albany Great Danes.

That's the truth. Stanford's tree looks like a bunch of elementary students made it.

As for the actual name... I think the Syracuse Orange are pretty stupid in my mind. The sound of the Illinois Fighting Illini never was that great to me. The Wake Forest Demon Deacons are awesome.

I doubt your a huge West Virginia fan when you can't even spell out "mountaineers" right.

Some are, but the Florida State Seminoles are awesome. I love the war chant.

[Ward]

Yeah Seminoles are fine, and I thought the Illini were fine too.

[Shane P. Hallam]

Illini are fine, the mascot was just a little shady...

The Rutgers Scarlet Knight is so much cooler than this clown. Plus we have two versions of him. The overanimated version similar to MSU or the full suit of armor one.

[Shane P. Hallam]

You do realize they had to change the name of the mascot because of pressure from the Native American community. They used to be the Redmen I believe.

[Jughead10]

Probably because NYU doesn't have football and no one really cares. I think they are good at track though.

I'll give you one better. No football but Division 1 basketball unlike NYU. St. Peter's Peacocks. My father played basketball there a long time ago. He is a proud peacock.

HAHA St. Peter's Peacocks

[therock6000]

Western Kentucky Hilltoppers...

if i'm an opposing team, what am i supposed to fear...their hilltopping capabilities? i might be impressed if they are topping a really big hill...like one that is close to mountain sized. Is this like "Mountaintopping Lite?"...someone that strives to tame mountains, but settles for dominating hills...
