No Gamecocks for Yahoo

This is goofy. Posters on the Yahoo TN/SC thread have the "cocks" part of Gamecocks obscured everytime they write the team name. Is Yahoo too cheap to get somebody to redo their program for football season?

That is an unfortunate team name. My sister went to Jacksonville State and their teams were "The Gamecocks" as well. On a visit to the campus I saw a marquee that read " Go Cocks Soccer!"

SC fans love double entendre themselves. My favorite was when SC beat Southern Cal, they had stickers saying "Those Trojans couldn't hold our Cocks!"

Not only that, but it's actually pronounced "gah-MEE-coks".
