Cougar Name Dropped from School Name

Has this term really become that offensive? Really?

A Utah school district has decided against using "Cougars" as a mascot for a new high school  because of the sexual connotation of the word.

Oh and by the way - at least three Utah schools, including Brigham Young University, use cougar as a mascot...

Oh, and in case you didn't know, he term cougarcan refer to women in their 40s who have sex with younger men.

They ended up picking the "Chargers" for the school name.
