I wince every time I see that gang-green name for eco-freaks.

In the early '80's the University of Oregon's football team had an outstanding defense, in the top five in the country for four years, and I had season tickets. Oregon's colors are green and gold, mostly green at home.

You guessed it, the defense was called "gang-green". We also called them gangrene when they stunk up the joint.

Now wait a minute! I got the idea from being passed by a van a couple of years ago on I-5 southbound when Oregon was to play a southern CA team. They had a banner in the back window that said "GREEN GANG!"

Immediately, knowing what the town of Eugene had turned into with all the liberals and eco-nazis, I turned it around and told Mrs. Wasp... "Look! Oregon has GANG-GREEN!"

She said, "Why, has part of their anatomy fallen off on the freeway?" I said, "No! Look at that sign in their back window!" She said, "What? GREEN GANG?" I said, "Almost... turn it around!" She said, "What? Are you becoming dyslexic?" I said, "No, but it sure fits and if it fits, you must convict!"
