Bulldogs as Mascots? Why?


The Mississippi State Bulldogs face off against the University of Georgia Bulldogs, and ESPN has this unfortunate title:

Only one Dog can survive this one

Actually with a face so brachycephaic there is no room for a tongue, and with an airway smashed and corkscrewed, I am not sure either of these two canine mascots will be alive too long. 

Why would anyone select an animal mascot that is deformed, defective and on the verge of being defeated before it even walks on the field? 

If an American team wants a dog that suggests speed, brains, fearlessness, tenacity and grit, kick the English Bulldog to the curb, and embrace the American Pitbull.
