That's right people, it's time for the fastest growing cybersegment in the blogosphere, Before they made their bones. An in depth look at institutions, beings and entities, and how they got down before they gained notoriety. Today, we look at what some prominent colleges were calling themselves back in the day, along wif commentary, of course.
USC Methodists - I think they went to the Trojan card so they could dress up the band faggots in armor n' shit
University of Washington Sundodgers - The change to Huskies was needed because the brothers from South Central LA ain't goin' to play for a school called the fuckin' Sundodgers
Texas Tech Matadors - The change to Red Raiders was done in hopes that people would stop saying that Tech plays Matador defense...School officials in Lubbock are holding out hope that this will eventually work
Notre Dame Catholics - The Racketeering Italians was also considered before settling on the Fighting Irish, as the Domers wanted to find the most menacing form of Catholic humanly possible
Nebraska Bugeaters - The Cornhuskers decided that corn tastes better than bugs, but not by much
Oregon Web Foots - Again, the change to Ducks was done with recruiting the brothers from S.Central LA in mind, as Web Foot could be termed as slightly racialist
North Carolina State Red Terror - The change to the Wolfpack moniker was made due to the overwhelming backlash on Red Terror from the Women's basketball team
Remember, when you want to know what was goin' on before shit really got goin' on, check out Before they made their bones, only on The Deuce.
