S doesn't stand for our school name. Last time I checked we were North Carolina STATE University

thats just a terrible column

9/17/2008 11:43:55 AM

hm

the giant s, eh?

the one that also has an N and C in it?

9/17/2008 11:45:18 AM

wow, this is another example of why not everyone should be able to post their thoughts in the internet.

9/17/2008 11:48:33 AM

Haha, UCLA ripped off the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Boston Red Sox by his logic...

what about those shadesters unc, notre dame, new york yankees and new york mets?? all those faggots put two letters on top of eachother.

9/17/2008 11:54:40 AM

What about Michigan State? They have a block S that, besides being a different color, looks exactly like Syracuse's block S.

We've had our block S with the embedded N and C for probably around 100 years or so. Just look at that old building (I can't remember the name of it right now) that has the logo on it.

9/17/2008 11:57:36 AM

so this guy hates the logos of:

Duke, Wake, NCSU, Kansas

hmmmmmmmmmm.......

9/17/2008 11:57:45 AM

^ hahahah

i didn't notice that.

9/17/2008 11:58:31 AM

I think that's all the ones there are in college sports.

9/17/2008 11:58:46 AM

at least we have an NC on ours

9/17/2008 12:06:07 PM

it would be chaos if State ever played Stanford.

9/17/2008 12:17:43 PM

TCU didnt get in on it? That is just fuckin horrible!

9/17/2008 12:24:31 PM

I like the look of a lot of college mascots and logos. ^ and i like that one.

9/17/2008 12:35:37 PM

Where the hell is Miami?

And these are the stupidest reasons I have ever seen.

"Okay, so maybe this isn't their official logo, but it is what's plastered all over their football helmets. A "Y." That's it, no collegiate-style font, just a simple, serif "Y" that looks suspiciously like the Yahoo! logo. Highly questionable if you ask me..."

Hey this 130 year old college has a logo that looks like the one from this 13 year old company.

I bet they ripped them off!

9/17/2008 1:22:49 PM

Dude WTF the Shocker's logo is awesome.

I like several of these....this guy is stupid.

9/17/2008 1:23:32 PM

You know what is also funny?

Quote :

"The primary logo for NC State athletics is a red block 'S' with an inscribed 'N' and 'C'. The block S has been in use since 1890 but has seen many alterations through the years. It became the sole logo for all NC State athletic teams in 2000 and was modernized to its current design in 2006."

vs



hmmmm....


(hint: notice the founding date on their school seal)

Diamond Logo > Block S

9/17/2008 1:28:03 PM

^ that's a large negative.

very large.

9/17/2008 1:33:30 PM

^ i second that

diamond logo was awful

9/17/2008 1:35:10 PM

diamond logo is lame

9/17/2008 1:35:57 PM

i respectfully disagree.

perhaps you will agree with me that Old Wolf Mascot > New Wolf Mascot?

[Edited on September 17, 2008 at 1:37 PM. Reason : .]

9/17/2008 1:36:21 PM

diamond logo sucked.

9/17/2008 1:37:17 PM

dude obviously doesn't like acc

a lot of acc teams on that list compared to other conferences

Someone needs to let this idiot know that we have been using the block S since before Stanford even existed.

9/17/2008 1:42:56 PM

when my parents first moved down to NC when I was a little over a year old they needed a blanket for my bed and they found college ones really cheap at wal mart or something. They had a ton of NC State ones left (the unc ones were prob sold out ) so they just grabbed one since it was on sale (they were from NY and big syracuse fans so they didnt have a preference of NC teams heh).

It is essentially why I started liking the pack I still have it on my bed to this day haha.

and it relates because it is just a pattern of tuffy repeated all over it.

[Edited on September 17, 2008 at 1:44 PM. Reason : ]

9/17/2008 1:43:35 PM

^ does it say N.C.STATE below him w/ UNIVERSITY in a banner? b/c i have that same blanket on my bed right now. my grandmother gave it to me when i graduated from a crib to a real bed.

hey about tuffy though... i haven't seen him on much stuff lately, and they're pushing that 3wolf statue logo pretty hard. i wonder... did something not go favorably w/ that whole nevada thing?

yea the classic logo looks much better. it's like some idiot got bored w/ adobe illustrator & decided to do the wisconsin badgers one also. His father was probably someone "in charge"

innovate, don't immitate.

the marching Pee-Dee the pirate logo looks alot better than the gay ones we have currently including the dumb looking flag

9/17/2008 3:57:01 PM

This guy is obviously a UNC Journalism homo. He hates on all the notable schools in North Carolina except for the Tar Heels (isn't that another word for faggot?), and he attacks Kansas (b/c they have a better basketball tradition ). Then he attacks Columbia (b/c their journalism school rejected him).

an intriguing theory.

9/17/2008 4:16:47 PM

not to mention a lot of people (elderly included) still call us "State College"

i know i say it a lot

9/17/2008 4:33:16 PM

state college? really?

9/17/2008 5:26:55 PM

that's what the big smokestack says isn't it

I think he's just a UNC fan...I'll talk shit about UNC all day, but at least their journalism grads could probably get a better job than at "uglyfugly.com"

9/17/2008 5:34:01 PM

we didn't officially become a "university" until the 1960s i think...

nothing uncommon though....Penn State and Michigan State used to be called "state college" before picking up university status too (among other schools)

Both schools probably got in a chat room and email'd each other a block S until they could agree on one.

9/17/2008 8:28:38 PM

1890's != 1890 we win

9/17/2008 9:53:34 PM

You people are getting mad over a column from a website named uglyfugly.com?

C'mon

Where's gunzz to preach about this hurting recruiting?
