Makes me want to go back to school! I know the chances are not good, but that would be hilarious if it came to pass.
They used a Gentle Giant mini-bust for their flyer.

I think that would be awesome. I think the fact that this is something they are really considering just shows you how much Star Wars is a part of today culture. They were even talking about it on "Around the Horn" on ESPN yesterday. Love it!!

Also you can look at it this way.. Score one more for Star Wars. I don't think any Star Trek character ever became endorced by any armed forces or school sports. Oh yeah...
