Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted September 22 My Duck-Buddies, I cannot stand even hearing the words, "Pac-12" anymore, because the Pig-2 and the other Mountain West teams are an abomination to the name. When I think of all the national championships won in the conference in all sports--and the current six in the new Pac earned how many? Damn few. It is revolting that the name is used with the current group...which is why they kept it and are spending untold millions to buy teams into it, instead of reverse merging with the Mountain West. They are coasting on the name, as they did for decades, while being overpaid for what they brought to the conference. I am drawing a blank, but we need to come up with an alternate name for the new Pac-12, and I appeal to this amazing community to come up with one we can refer to, and perhaps might catch on elsewhere. Something appropriate for this level of competition... Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JabbaNoBargain No. 6 Share Posted September 22 (edited) Those are all very good first stabs. Could probably fish around some B12 sites from the last couple years to find a lot of ideas. I’d lean towards scrap-12 myself, adds a bit more oomph than just saying they suck. Be nice to find three letters that work, that’s what made the PIG2 so brilliant I'm sure Seattle U and Grand Canyon are doing great things in the historic WAC!

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 7 Share Posted September 22 I really like the “Scrap-12” because that really describes what the current conference is. 1 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Duck No. 19 Share Posted September 24 I like "Scrap-12," but preferably without the 'S.' But if I was seriously looking for a conference name for this group of misfits, I like criticalducks "Pacific Mountain Conference." And I think "Pacific Mountain West" would work as well.

criticalduck No. 22 Share Posted September 25 I was just going for a name that takes the PAC designate from their "league." I'm tired of their crap and don't want or need to waste anymore energy on them. Their schools, administrations, and fans are ridiculous. First, complaining that OBD and Fuskies "left" them behind in a deal to move forward. Second, scheming and "winning" in court (in the dust bowl of WA) the money that nearly every school earned. Finally, saying that the garbage they pulled on the MWC is completely above board when compared to what transpired in the B1G. Again, they're theives and with the way they have managed their schools,while in the PAC, they'll have to drop much of their athletic departments. That will be when they gather in the "town square" with their pitchforks to storm toward the catsles of the evil empire of Eugene and Seattle. Good riddance! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will admit that I am getting to that point as well, and that is saying something! They are a G-5 team, and there is no amount of lipstick that will change that. We know it, and everyone knows it; let them pretend--who cares? But we should not lose money any further playing them in Corvallis, let alone Eugene. The originally scheduled game against Texas Tech would have pulled a TON more eyes to Oregon's game that week. Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solar No. 29 Share Posted September 26 I would flip it around to CAP-12. It's the common lingo in schools right now that "cap" means you are lying or faking it. My son is always saying "That's cap." When he sees or hears something that is trying to deceive us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmguy2018 No. 30 Share Posted September 27 I haven't seen this name suggested and so I'm gonna throw it out there. For those of you that still have kids at home, you'll recognize the dual meaning of the name. Folks, I give you the SUS-12 Hear me out. There are too meanings here. One is that all of these schools seem to be State Universities, so State University Schools - 12. Now, the dual meaning is that "Sus" is shorthand for suspicious and these schools are suspiciously masquerading as relevant. So, there ya go. The new power 5 conference, the SUS-12. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
