Saltine Warriors? You guys should have gone with Ritz Warriors or Crackers.I liked SU better when they were the Saltine Warriors.
Back in the day we made you circle that shit.
I always knew FSU stole their mascot from someone.
This is UW's mascot .. Dubs. Ally .. the caretaker of this dog take this fvcker with him everywhere he goes .. including the fvcking grocery store.
Not a Red Fader fan...but those jet black, high strung quarterhorse (sometimes too high strung) courtesy of Scarbrough's are pretty damn impressive and fast animals!
And then the goofy bastyuds go and screw things up with this Yosemite Sam looking cartoon!
Question NP. Did the Seminoles actually have and ride horses? I know Chief Osceola is always depicted on one. A lot of the tribes the US Cavalry could get "under control" walked and were not horsemen. The US Cavalry liked to have never gotten the Comanche's "under control" because they were much, much better horsemen than the Cavalry were. That and the Cavalry couldn't handle the wide open spaces like the Llano Estacado, Big Bend, etc, when they got passed the tree line around Weatherford, TX.Actually, There are different Indian Tribes. There is not just one. (Quit stereotyping)
And, for the record, FSU doesn't have a mascot...we have the "Spirit" of the Seminole
Tribe of Florida.
The Seminole Tribe of Florida is the only Tribe located in America that has NEVER
surrendered to the US Government. A Truce was established long, long, ago but
they never gave in. They remain "unconquered"
Chief Osceola was a real person. Chief of the Tribe, whose grave is outside the
back gate at Fort Moultrie in Charleston, SC. Where he rests in honor.
When the NCAA tried to get us to drop the "Seminole" name...not only did our
President and AD attend that meeting in Indy, but Mike Osceola, then Chief of
the Tribe, went with them.
His remarks are legendary. He explained to the NCAA that FSU and the Tribe
had had a working condition for the previous 30 years, before any NCAA involvement.
He explained how the Tribe makes any and all costumes worn. How the Tribe has
always had the final say in any product sold bearing their name. How they get a
piece of the action on everything sold. That they have always worked hand-in-hand
with the University. They once nixed a Seminole "mascot" called "Sammy Seminole."
When some woman member of the NCAA panel replied that they were only doing
what they believed to be in the Tribe's best interests he replied..."It just sounds to
me, that this is just another way of the White man trying to tell the Red man what's
good for him."
Case closed.
The Seminoles are a pretty smart outfit. They have all that free land furnished
by the government. They get a percentage of everything FSU sells. They own
all the Casinos. Do not mistake the Oklahoma Seminole Tribe with the Florida
Seminole Tribe. Florida Seminoles don't need to sell blankets by the side of
the road.
We're a long way from the "Saltine Warriors." You ever seen a New York Mohawk
or Oneida Indian wear a headdress like that? The Mohawks and the Oneidas were
just wanna be Sioux, huh?
I like WVU's Daniel Boone looking character. 'Course Daniel didn't settle there.
He just stopped briefly, and then moved on to a more chic location...more modern...
The hills of Kentucky and Tennessee.
Bragging about a dude wearing a skirt.......and here I thought that San Fran was the gayest city in CaliWe got a horse and a dude in a skirt wielding a sword. Gotta say that tops your Sooners.
tOSU's mascot looks like a testicle.

Beats the other kind:congrats to Oklahoma, you have a "live" wagon.
