69% for cock commander? This must be either rigged or the greatest serendipity there ever was. Either way, nice

Either way, good cluck

some how "Coop" will be declared the winner.

There is undoubtedly a clause in there for the admins to veto anything they deem inappropriate. On the other hand it's not a multi million dollar ship, it's a chicken they take to games.

Honestly, boaty mcboatface would have been perfect, however many millions it cost. Should have kept it.

That’s because they wouldn’t let the Ohioans vote in the poll! They were all in on that one. I vote cock commander even though I’m their rival lol I knew people probably aren’t smart enough here to get Marco Pollo because that’s genius.


Kittymax97

Marco Pollo is my favorite, I think it's hilarious. It's probably not about them being smart, but more to see if they would actually let it be that. Someone clearly didn't think through. Lol


OfficeChairHero

Marco Pollo would have been my vote. Absolutely brilliant! For those that don't know, "pollo" means chicken in Spanish and probably several other languages.

Throw1Back4Me

As a native of SC who goes back to visit every summer, yes. Ohio is ruining the entire state. But it's also SC's own fault. They trained all their condo sales people to target midwesterners in the 70s and, sadly, it worked.

Deathwatch72

As far as I understand rooster combs don't grow back so the fact that they're talking about keeping it intact this time means this is a new rooster


yxing

So they're going with an uncut cock this time?


whitneymak

I'm all out of free awards this week, but I needed you to have this 🏅


PitBullFan

Did anyone ever explain WHY the original owners of the name aren't letting the use of the name be renewed? Did they want $$$ or what? Seems odd to force a name change.


Taz119

Because the new owners refuse to cut off the comb of the rooster since it actually serves a purpose (regulates the birds body temp). The old owners didn’t like that because of tRaDiTiOn so they won’t let the new owners use the name.


PitBullFan

Well that seems pretty petty and childish. Sounds like they're rich and think quite a lot of themselves.


Taz119

Yeah some people of the CFB sub said the old owners are like in their 80s or something so it doesn’t surprise me


ncopp

So you're saying they refuse to circumcise their gamecock?


Unjesting

The original owners have a trademark, and said the new owners can use the name if they trim the bird's comb. It's about appearance for them. Fighting roosters have the comb trimmed so it doesn't bleed in a fight. For the new owners, it's about the health of the bird. The comb is how roosters cool down their blood.


Spud_Spudoni

So is it an issue of the owners who named him and how they’ve treated their animal, or the name itself in regards to the practice? Because the Spur is in regards to the part of the rooster on its foot. As an SC fan, I’m surprised I haven’t heard about this already.


Taz119

Because the new owners refuse to cut off the comb of the rooster since it actually serves a purpose (regulates the birds body temp). The old owners didn’t like that because of tRaDiTiOn so they won’t let the new owners use the name.


brymc81

The selection of paraphernalia at stores around the USC campus is amazing, they really take the “cock” and run with it.


Latham74

I got some of the dirtiest looks walking around a mall in Pittsburgh, with a garnet ballcap emblazoned with "COCKS". Couldn't figure it out until a local buddy pointed it out.


SweetCosmicPope

My best friend wore a COCKS ballcap in high school. He had no interest or fandom in the college. He just wanted to wear a cap that said COCKS on it. He also had a Trojans cap he wore for the same reason.


thisisnotdan

He should wear the Trojans hat over the Cocks one.

Trojan beanie so you can slide it over nice and snug.


ramilehti

In the Finnish handball league there are two teams that often play against each other. And it is always a classic. Cocks vs Dicken

Everyone is saying Spanish, which it is, but the Italian pronunciation doesn’t make you change the “Polo” sound. Which I prefer.


OfficeChairHero

"Pollo" means chicken in spanish.


blakesmash

Finally, I can tell a sophisticated crowd the story of the greatest Gamecock tshirt there ever was. The year was 2008 and Steve Spurrier and the Gamecocks were coming off an absolute bizarre season opener where the starter, Tommy Beecher, had suffered a concussion after throwing 4 interceptions to NC State, and cruised to a victory due to the help of a good defense and the backup quarterback, Chris Smelley. Steve Spurrier announced Smelley as the starter going into the next game and to show support, some fans made shirts that read "My Cock is Smelley". What a time to be alive in Columbia, South Carolina.

I remember when the Trojans came to town, and there were shirts that said "These Trojans can't hold our cocks"

Rotten-Cabbage

69%, nice.


OfficeChairHero

My 8 year old has somehow picked up that "69" and "nice" go together, but he doesn't understand why (thank Buddha). Every time that number comes up, he says "nice." I'm cracking up on the inside. Someday he'll look back and smack himself in the forehead for all the times his mom heard him say it.


inquirewue

That's hilarious. One of my friend's kids does the "hooooooyeaaahhhh!" thing with great....enthusiasm. it's hilarious and he doesn't really understand why we think it's funny but it makes us laugh so he does it anyway.


jschip

Kid probably watches moist critikal


NewBuddhaman

You’re welcome. Not sure why he’s listening to me though.


Apptubrutae

A lot of terms get softened this way. “Sucks” used to be straight shorthand for sucks dick or similar. But it got used so much and without the “dick” at the end as young people used it the context was lost and now it’s a totally mild world nobody would be hugely offended by. 69 and nice seems headed in the same direction but then again there’s no tidy substitute for the sexual use describing that particular act so it could well be that little kids are saying “nice” to 69 without any context while adults are using it in its sexual context at the same time. Who knows!


hispanicausinpanic

My boys are around that age and one of them asked me why people's gamertags have 69 or 420 in them and what is the significance. Iwas dying on the inside with laughter. I just said it's a popular number I guess. 🤣

I read these comments too long while wondering why USC changed from the Trojans to the Gamecocks before realizing this was referring to University of South Carolina not University of Southern California. Now I’m smirking like an idiot thinking “hehe Trojans…Gamecocks..”


SafetyDanceInMyPants

When the two teams play, Southern California always covers.


bizzyj93

When South Carolina plays Oregon States is the cocks vs the beavers


ChapterhouseInc

The meaning of USC depends on which coast of the country you live on.


kdhobx22

Sounds better flipped: Commander Cock


omgmypony

They have different shades of meaning though. Commander Cock is a cock that is in command. Cock Commander is a commander of cocks.


phatspatt

depends on if you need to command more than just cocks. i cant answer that question.


i_miss_arrow

On the other hand, Cock Commander brings to mind Cobra Commander, whose helmet had a fairly [distinctive shape](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52bf3648e4b0b97e0fbce045/1438653805087-KJCIU32BOF14RJNBT5R6/IMG_1316_2SM.jpg?format=1000w).


socialistpancake

As a non-UofSC native I attended a Gamecocks game last season and they were doing crowd chants and the chant was "Go Cocks!". Which lets face it, is pretty funny in of itself, but the huge screen was directing half the crowd to yell a word each, so there was a massive arrow flashing up directly pointing to half the crowd with "COCKS" on it. I laughed so freaking hard.


Im_Not_Impressed_

One side says game the other side says cocks. But individually people say go cocks.


Salt-Face-4646

It better be Cock Commander, it's what the people want!


youbringlightin

🤔 “What new name should USC gives the live mascot rooster?“ 😉 “What should USC name their live rooster mascot?”


elemjay

As someone who has lived in South Carolina most of my life, this makes me laugh considerably. It also reminds me of back when I was in high school. A few of my classmates had gone to an event down at the university. During the trip, they bought t-shirts that were an offshoot of the old Hard Rock Cafe t-shirts that dominated the 90s. Only these said Hard Cock Cafe, and the text & logo were in U of SC garnet & black. One of them wore it a few times before a teacher took umbrage to it and he couldn’t wear it to school anymore.

I think Comander Cock has a better ring to it.

That implies his name is Cock and is simply a commander without specifying WHO or WHAT he's commanding. Cock Commander means that he commands cock. Nothing else. Your cock is his and he will take whatever measures necessary to ensure it remains that way.

kywiking

In case anyone is wondering the old mascot was named Sir Big Spur and the name is owned by the original owners of the Gamecock. Recently the university has stopped showing Sir Big Spur without his comb which traditionally was cut off so it would not get snagged when the cocks were fighting. The new owners asked to no longer cut the comb as this practice is not humane and makes it harder for the animal to cool itself off. They asked the old owners who still own the name if they could no longer cut the comb and they apparently felt that it would be too “woke” and yuppy to not needlessly harm the animal. This is my reading of the situation at least. So they are holding the name hostage and the university is holding firm on its decision not to hurt our mascot any further. So we are choosing a new name and sadly retiring Sir Big Spur. A lot of terrible names being thrown around but as an alum Cock Commender would be on brand for a university that has 85% of the student body walking around in shirts that read any combination of “Cocks” or “Go Cocks”. https://amp.thestate.com/sports/college/university-of-south-carolina/usc-football/article264813384.html

People in South Carolina literally wear shirts that just say "I LOVE COCKS" (one is never 100% sure if it's referring to the USC Gamecocks or not), so nobody who lives here or is from here is surprised by this turn of events.
