Brown's New Mascot

I disagree, I think the "Dawgs" transcended the era and gave us an identity that still sticks today. I think it is more like calling the Giants the "G-Men" , the Cowboys "America's Team" or the Saints using "Who Dat" and the Bungles "Who Dey" ... it is just something that came along and stuck.
It is marketable, it gives us an identity, it is fun ... I think, if anything, we should embrace the whole "Dawgpound" thing even more.

Well, I see a large part of the whole Dawg thing as being very much a product of an unimaginitve public relations department.
To me, if it were the case that the Dawg persona was the organic wish of the fans, then I would be OK with it...like it was in the beginning. But I see it more now as just a contrived artifact shoved down our throat merely for marketing/money purposes.
We could mate Brownie and Swagger...

I hear you, Gip, but while the original "Dogs of the Defense" did fade away, the Dog Pound never did.

remember spuds mackenzie?
while living in mesa a local radio station plugged a night were bud was bringing in spuds mackenzie. so my sister and i (animal lovers that we are) went out to see the dog and it's trainer etc. so we thought.
as we were walking in the bar through the parking lot some douchebag was putting on a english pit terrier outfit.
wanted to walk up to the asshole and kick him in the nuts. (even though he was just making a buck). reallY? i'm going to sit and spend money and watch some asshole dance around in a dog costume instead of getting to check out the cool actual dog?
go fuck yourselves bud light.

"Having a giant turd laying mascot taking a shit on the field is quite appropriate for a team doing the same thing." Got a good laugh outta that one

What happened to the elf? Didn't we have some guy in an elf costume last year? I'll admit the costume looked pretty gay but throw up that elf display we had back in the day and be done with it.

Having a little person run around all crazy in an elf costume would be epic. He would be flipping off the camera and mooning everyone. I can just see it now.

hire the notre dame drunk and ugga and we're golden.

A Bull Mastiff would bite the guy in half.

Can we have these kids play when the dog leads the team thru the tunnel.

I would prefer Machinehead.

great talented kids...
BUT
if you want official kick ass rock song (many colleges play this now) coming through tunnels or a rally song this is it:
Well, this song has now become almost cliche. I mean, when soccer crowds start chanting it you know it is time to move on to something new.

at least that means people have heard of it.
i mean i love todd rundgren but can't stand it when they play the "i don't wanna work, i just wanna bang on my drums all day" crap.
can anyone ever play like a b side song?

If that is too old school for you, here is another B side:

Here is a B side for you (A side: So Lonesome I could cry)
Thanks for that Gipper.....hadn't heard that "bluesy" Hank song in a long time.
That is exactly the type of song that crossed him over to other types of music that made his country sound the standard. The guy had a sound that appealed, and he was a pretty darn good guitar player....that was a solo effort.

how about this for you guys!! Manziel walking out with swagger (the dog)and all the Texas A&M fans go nuts (cough cough, mean browns fans)

OMG you got a sick sense of humor my man.
