Change of White House mascot

[timbdp]

Someone in White House doesn't like Blue Devils as White House's mascot, and thinks that it should be changed. It was in the letters to the editor section of this week's Browser.

I would bet that you have had the smae mascot since the 40's when you first had football or the school opened? The person who probably wrote that isn't a native of White House I would bet probably isn't from Tennessee!

 

Keep It!

Since I saw the post earlier today I was playing with the BDP theme and the only change I could come up with is Bull Dog...but that's just 1 word. What's next changing Wake Forrest from the oxy moron nickname of Demon Deacons....

they have had good luck as devils so they dont need 2 change it

Pretty pathetic...she states that she is new to the community. Well, if this is how she gets involved in her new community with the rich tradition we have here, she won't be very popular.

 

An excerpt from her letter...

 

 

 

Dear Editor,

Mother new to the White House area is seeking all those interested in a change of the White House High School Mascot from the "Blue Devils" to reflect a more positive image not only of the community in general but to the wonderful young people of White House...."

 

I'd like to see her present this load of crap before the entire student body of WHHS on the gym floor and see what kind of reaction she gets!!!!

Tell her to go somewhere else!

 

I'm not from there, but I attended a White House/Portland game one time.

 

I love the BDP!

What's wrong? She doesn't want to share a name with Duke University and a french army regiment?

 

(Kidding, that was just for you dandy.)

 

Would someone please post the letter if possible? I want to read this.

She is, you guessed it, a.............P L A N T !!!

 

 

In the truest sense of the word, she is most definately a P L A N T....or maybe a better term is transplant........as in she needs one if she thinks we are gonna change our mascot....

 

 

I certainly hope she doesn't have kids in school....to be known as having the mother who wanted the Blue Devil out of BDP.....

I would also like to read this letter does the newspaper have a website?

 

I hope you all keep us updated on any editorial letters in support of the mascot or any more letters this person might write.

Any new fallout from this?
