Should Highlands change their nickname/mascot?

Since when does a mascot name need to be intimidating?? Never once in my time in sports did I shake in my cleats because we were playing a team with an "intimidating" mascot.

 

If someone is intimidated by a mascot, they are probably not the right person to be playing. Just sayin'.

So @OlDog75 's little logo hunt motivated me to look around for old Highlands logos myself. Besides the one he put up in Post #24 , I've always been partial to the football-helmeted bluebird head that they used for their patches back in the day. I could only find actual photo's of the logo, so I decided to play with the software that we have on our CAD and design station at work, and I came up with a few items that our resident Bluebird fans may like. I have full-sized files...including .JPG .PNG and .EPS formats. Anyone who would like them can just shoot me a PM.
