Nike U is great. People love to try and say Oregon belongs to Nike. Makes me laugh.

If we started getting referred to as "The Big O" we'd get a heated letter from the FCC.

We've already got the sign we make with our hands, why not be known as the "O"?

I don't know about you guys but it seems like we are already referred to as "The O" by a lot of people outside of the fanbase. Not to the extent as "the U" but it's definitely used in reference to the Ducks more often than not.

Just start using it all the time when you post. Maybe in your sig. line?
