WTF is wrong with all of you people who think Zuma is wonderful. Not giving a rat's ass one way or another about Zuma until there's actual evidence that action is again going to be taken to try to eliminate the Aztec Warrior is not the same as thinking Zuma is wonderful. I contributed several years ago both monetarily and via communication with the president's office when they threatened to eliminate the Warrior. If they do that again, I'm prepared to oppose such action in a similar fashion. But until then I'm not going to lose any sleep over mere innuendo.

WTF is wrong with all of you people who think Zuma is wonderful. Zuma should go awaaayyyy!!!. The cougar is not part of Aztec tradition and shouldn't be part of it. Steve is pointing out that the admins are pulling an end run around the whole mascot issue. I don't believe the Aztec Warrior will be around in another 2-3 years. Well, you're welcome to join him in the conspiracy theory society. I can't think of much of anyone on here who thinks Zuma is "great". We're simply not buying into Steve's, and apparently your, paranoia. =Bob

Let me see Pitt and maybe and UM have an open slot and we are posting on Zuma and a "reported conversation"?
WOW, I feel a uniform thread coming on.

Wasn't Zuma introduced by the same guy that wanted The Show banned?

Steve's heart is in the right place here. He was at the center of the Aztec Warrior situation, and most likely invested not just a ton of hours, but some of his own money.
No need to criticize him or dub him a fool, we can politely and respectfully disagree.
I am in the same camp as SGF. I have no problem with Zuma as a supplemental, fan friendly mascot.
If the Aztec Warrior's duties are curtailed or eliminated for the feline......I'm going to be f'ing pissed. And a whole new can of worms will be opened.

This makes my top 5 most ridiculous debates on any Aztec message board. Yet it goes on and on and on...
God forbid we focus on the Poinsettia Bowl win and an undefeated basketball team. There are much bigger issues to fret about like obsessing over the new mascot. Sheesh!

Hear say? Are you able to read and comprehend? That came from the head of the mascot committee and one of the 5/6 board members of the mascot committee. You talk about sticking your head in the sand? Is this so called committee member willing to go on the record? If not it is hear say. Get a life. When someone works for the University, they can not speak without being worried about their position. I can, because I left committee. Do you have more questions?

And why would an admin on the mascot committee tell another member he was duped if it's the admin side who is engaged in your conspiracy theory? =Bob Because this admin is a squirrel. He is (and always has) played both sides of the issue. He is a "house player", but pretends to be neutral.

If they do that again, I'm prepared to oppose such action in a similar fashion. But until then I'm not going to lose any sleep over mere innuendo. And then it will be too late again. How many times are you going to be fooled?

We must act NOW!!!....Not after the fact. Zuma must be run out NOW...Not after the Aztec Warrior is gone. Have we not learned anything from the past?

Zuma must be run out NOW...Not after the Aztec Warrior is gone. Have we not learned anything from the past? Weber saw clearly what happened when the mascot issue last came up. He is a very intelligent man, I doubt he would allow Zuma to replace the Warrior. Why would he or other admins want the same fight as before? I'm not naive. I'm not a fool. I just don't think the Warrior is being phased out, Steve. I see Zuma as a supplemental, family friendly mascot only.

How many people do you think thought Monty Montezuma would not be phased out? That would be about 200,000.

AGAIN, this is a dead issue. Sorry steve. I respect your opinion on matters but you bring up this subject in a new thread once a week. You are becoming the person who cries wolf. Lets talk important matters like mens basketball, football recruits, brady and the every school that wants him. Just not the damn mascot
