DH and I were in the local Safeway and the high school girls soccer team swarmed the place after practice.
They were all sporting T-Shirts emblazoned with "The - town name - Beavers".
We didn't know if we wanted to laugh or cry. Clueless anyone?
Girl soccer team is called "Beavers" - REALLY???

Some of my students were cheerleaders at Page middle school... Yes, PMS.
But I find the beaver thing as distasteful as camel toe. Something to be ignored with the supercilious scorn it deserves.
Women have vaginae and hair, so what.

Oregon is the Beaver State...

Yeah I think it's pretty innocuous around Oregon. Personally I think of the animal when I hear the term...is it still commonly used in the other way?

There's a school in a tiny town in waaaaaay NW Michigan whose school name is the "Nimrods". Really.
Evidently, nimrods were ancient warriors. Who knew?

I think in Oregon you're either a duck or a beaver aren't you?

No, they aren't the cocks. They are the bucks. Sigh.......

Nimrods isn't just a generic synonym for doofus? Serious question.

I believe one of the Carolinas is the GameCocks? I wonder if they ever play OSU.
