Great point, one that I hadn't thought of. OK, FReepers, any other white-based mascots out there?

I believe the LaSalle "Explorers" would also qualify. Wasn't LaSalle a French explorer?

Tennessee Volunteers... not that all volunteers are white, but the volunteer mascot is a white male (the coonskin cap guy. He also carries a rifle).

Vanderbilt commodore is white, but there is always that question about gender.

The old Boston/New England Patriot on the side of the helmet was white, but I think he was gay. That crouching wink always bothered me.
