I don't think the sports teams use "Violets" anymore, for obvious reasons. Instead they've adopted the "Bobcats", which is almost more pathetic considering that's the name of the library's index system (BOBst card CATalogue). :lol:

FYI

1st game starts on Tuesday evening at 7PM ET

Alabama St vs Morehead St.

Whoever wins this game faces Louisville - which I call it right now...

There won't be an upset there.

Re: NYU - well, wikipedia still says they're still called the Violets. While the Bobcat is the official mascot.

By the way:

Quote:

Currently, the University of Chicago, which, similar to NYU, is a member of the University Athletic Association, serves as a rival of sorts.

How exciting! The Maroons versus the Violets. My loyalties will surely be put to the test. :roll:

Interestingly, the NCAA Division III's UAA conference (of which both NYU and UChicago are a part, apparently) has the nickname "The Nerdy Nine." :read

I'm in! I'm a HUGE college basketball fan. I've joined the group but for some reason my laptop is being odd and won't let me pick teams when I try to edit my choices so right now I just had Yahoo overwrite with popular picks for now. But, I will warn you all...I've been in my dad's (all-male) office pool for years and usually get first or second.
