Brian, that remark that I made was intended directly in response to Bat2supe, an obviously implied DC fan. I was not specifically directly stating that to you or anyone else at “this here blog”.

Aww Marvel was not as includedâ€¦typically these blogs are so pro Marvel its replulsive for those of us who are not Marvel Zombies.

What’s sillier than you thinking that is that I bet you are not alone in thinking that.

There is no discrimination between the big two at this here blog!

Go Valpo!

Funny story about the Valparaiso Crusaders. They changed their name back in 1941 from the “Uhlans.” The Uhlans were Prussian Cavalry, so you might understand why a university would change their name from that in 1941. They changed it to the Crusaders.

And now there’s talk of changing it from that, since that’s not a very PC name.

Hey…and yes this occurred to a whole day after seeing this, but you left out Aztek (SDSU Aztecs)! He’s a beloved Morrison character, right? For shame, Mr. Cronin.

The ASU Sun Devils will save us all!

Also, both Elon and UW-Green Bay have Phoenix as a mascot, and both are 1A Basketball schools.
