OT: Jonathan XIII Has Series of Seizures

But clearly not an all white husky which was our tradition since 1935, right?

I can't help but note that when I linked to UConn foundation showing pictures of all the white Jonathans you started name calling. It's your tell when you are embarrassed by a position you've taken and yet are unwilling to admit it. But I see you are becoming more upset each post so feel free to get last the word in. Perhaps some name calling will make you feel momentarily better?

I've told you I don't know how many times now the logo we're known for and have been talking about is a Samoyed. You are the one who changed the subject. Gaslighting becomes tiresome so please stop. Also, what names did I call you? Another nice way of changing the subject instead of just admitting you are wrong.

Let's get you on record now, the logo we're known for is a Husky or a Samoyed?

You two are arguing about what the real life animal our cartoon drawing is? Okay. Carry on.

Of course it's totally unimportant but I'm kind of fascinated by people who are unwilling to admit they're wrong on trivial things, makes you wonder what lengths they'll go to on big things. CL82 and upstater always rise to the occasion.

....who wants to tell him?
 
Can't you both be right? The all white husky has definitely been the live mascot for many a year. But looking at pics online, the image SJ posted of the cartoon version appears more like a Samoyed due to it's fluffier fur and smaller ears.

Sure, if that's what we were talking about but it's not. We were talking about the new logo vs. the old one. The new one is a Siberian Husky and the old one is a Samoyed. He brought up the history of the dogs which I know but it's irrelevant to what we were talking about...

The new logo looks like a Siberian Husky because that's what it's based on (CL82 thinks it's a blue wolf.) The old logo looks like a Samoyed because that's what it's based on.

Lol, you are legend for going down the rabbit hole on any number of issues with any number of posters, well for that and for welching on bets. You realize that, right?

Any event feel free to melt as much as you'd like. It won't change the fact that UConn had a white husky as mascot from 1935 up until they made the change in 2014. I mean you realize that right?

No doubt, but the mascot was a white husky. That was our unique brand. It was a mistake to leave something unique for something generic.

Always been the rule but I wasn't aware of it. I offered to put up a grand and have someone from the board hold it or set up a paypal and wasn't taken up on it. That was all a no no, not allowed.

What the hell, I'll ask again. The previous logo, the logo we're known for isn't a Samoyed?

Current logo isn't a Siberian Husky?
 
superjohn said:
I offered up a grand a bunch of times as collateral, again not allowed. Was actually told not to talk about it as well. So I'll shut up.

If you're that hard up for cash you can always use your sorcery...

Lol, you made a bet, lost and then freaked out and tried to have all your past posts deleted so there won't be evidence of it. Everybody knows the story, why lie about it. Lesson learned, don't make bets you can afford to pay.

Yeah, you keep fixating on that but that isn't the point. The relevant point is that from 1935 to 2014 our mascot has always been a white husky. You keep dancing around that. Do you agree or disagree? I'm tempted to answer by posting the pictures one by one, but don't want to waste the bandwidth. C'mon now SJ you know that answer just man up and say yes and move on.

Agreed. I'm out. You can really never get a straight answer from that guy anyway.
 
superjohn said:
Never freaked out, never deleted a single post in the 15 or so years I've been here, never put anyone on ignore. I owned up to losing the bet but we all know there was no money put up. I made another money bet with voldemort before I knew the no cash bet policy, he was wrong and i didn't expect to get paid and could care less. I have no problem admitting when I'm wrong. l

This is your typical routine when you're wrong- bring up unrelated things, gaslight, bring up more unrelated things...

I'll bring it back to the topic. Again, what kind of dog is the previous logo and what kind of dog is the current logo? I've yet to see you ever admit you're wrong, maybe this will be your first?
Expand ...
Neither of you guys ever disagreed with anything the other guy said. @CL82 never said the old logo wasn't a depiction of a Samoyed. @superjohn never denied the original mascot (real live dog) was a white husky. You have just been talking past each other for the entire thread.

Gaslighting describes a form of psychological abuse in which the victim is gradually manipulated into doubting his or her sanity. The term originated from the 1938 play Gas Light (known in the United States as Angel Street) by the British dramatist Patrick Hamilton and two film adaptations (1940 and 1944), both named Gaslight, about a woman whose husband slowly manipulates her into believing that she is going insane.
The title stems from the gas lights in the house, which dim whenever the husband secretly turns them on in the attic, while searching for hidden jewels. Although the wife accurately notices the dimming lights, her husband insists that she has only imagined a change in the level of illumination. It’s one of a series of unexplained incidents that lead the wife to suspect that she may be slowly going mad.
The 1944 film starred Ingrid Bergman, Charles Boyer, and Joseph Cotten; it was directed by George Cukor. The film was nominated for seven Oscars and won two: Bergman as Best Actress and for Art Direction.
 
I heard Samoyed's have a dairy allergy that gives them the runs. Seeing that UCONN has a dairy bar I have no doubt that the dog from 1935 to today is in fact a Husky.

Case closed.
