The next offender on the mostest dumbest mascot list takes us to Southern California and Division III Football. Yes, even though Whittier College football is more insignificant that the flag football team at your local YMCA they still qualify for an entry in a sports blog that is just as obscure.
The school was founded by a Quaker poet named John Greenleaf Whittier in the 1880's. The most important thing that we need to know about Whittier is that their mascot is 'the Poet'. This may not seem as bad as some others you may have heard but consider the following:
1. Is there anything more soft than a pacifist Quaker?
2. Is there anything more soft than a starving poet?
3 Is there anything more soft than a starving pacifist Quaker poet from southern California?
4. It just seems to much to say "Welcome to Whittier College, home of the fighting......I mean pacifist......because we're not allowed to fight, Poets.
