Posted September 22, 2024Sep 22 Administrator 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

September 22, 2024Sep 22 Author Administrator Or we could just take a letter off and make it the....Crap-12? Mr. FishDuck
September 22, 2024Sep 22 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!

September 22, 2024Sep 22 Author Administrator I really like the “Scrap-12” because that really describes what the current conference is. Mr. FishDuck
September 22, 2024Sep 22 ORT-12 is spot on, but no one would get it lol Edited September 22, 2024Sep 22 by JabbaNoBargain
September 22, 2024Sep 22 Moderator USC. united state conference. Required to have state in your college name.
September 22, 2024Sep 22 The TRANS? Transcontinental if they take USF. Transition if they are all still hoping for a Big12 invite. Transaction looking for money. Transfixed on bitching about former rivals. Transexual if they still long for their original conference and demanding equality.
September 22, 2024Sep 22 State Universities Conference, The SUC-6. They can always expand to the SUC-8, SUC-10, or even the SUC-12! Either was, they will still suck!
September 24, 2024Sep 24 SUC by PittDuck is fantastic. Probably is my vote. I also like BrokePACMountain.
September 24, 2024Sep 24 New Occidental Temporary Association. NOT A Conference. Pretty poor, I know. Must have coffee....................................
September 24, 2024Sep 24 I think they should be called PMC. The Pacific Mountain Conference. No number designation need...so they can grow/shrink as needed.
September 24, 2024Sep 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.

September 25, 2024Sep 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!

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

September 25, 2024Sep 25 F-Pac-W The article below is revealing because it is by someone from the other side of the country. While sunshine is a great disinfectant, it is also exposes the truth about those bothersome rodents and company. MSN WWW.MSN.COM OSU/WSU will never fit the mantra "Looking good Billy Ray .....Feeling good Louis!" They fit more with you can't polish a turd! I digress. Have a great day everyone. BLAST the BRUINS!!
September 26, 2024Sep 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.
September 27, 2024Sep 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.
