When playing team games, people has this very odd tendency to pretend as animals. Whatever their reasons, sports teams love to call themselves wolves, eagles, bears, sharks, lions, tigers and many others. Well, one can correctly guess that sports teams do so because they want to exude qualities of being strong like bulls, deadly like tigers, and wise like wolves. Also, this strategy is intended to bring passion, energy and excitement to an otherwise dull game competitions. Indeed, a team with a name of “Pittsburg Penguins,” is more appealing than a name “Pittsburgh professional ice hockey team,” which is a general term that describes the sports team.

The first logo (the wildcat) is ripoff of Cazenovia College mascot. http://www.cazenoviawildcats.com/landing/index
Hi thanks for letting us know – the logo is removed from the post.
Just want to say the logo for “Peachtree Corners” is actually Cazenovia College’s trademarked athletic logo. http://www.cazenovia.edu
