I think Vin is right. Let's go back to the 1960's logo. That was awesome.

Yeah, our dog as a Minute Man. What could be better than that?

(for the sake of full disclosure, UMass wasn't always the Minute Men. I believe that until the early-mid 1970's they were the Indians or Warriors (some nickname that was an insult to ntive Americans).

This guy played in the good ol' days when UConn couldn't get a home-and-home with Yale.

I know that everyone is joking, but I would straight-up wear that helmet as a fan to a UConn game....especially if the ears really did poke out all 3-D like...

UMASS was known as the Redmen. They practically led the political correctness movement by changing the name as far back as the 1970's. I believe Stanford beat them, changing from the Indians to Cardinal before UMASS made their change. Political correctness always happens first in California.

I remember there were idiots who also objected to the Minuteman mascot. They claimed it was a violent (he holds a musket) male image that is undesirable. The inmates trying again to run the asylum.

Well, it IS offensive. Plenty of men suffer from ED.
