Read the Blue Hose history here: What's in a Name?

I know, but it's funnier if you tell people it's socks. ;-) Because the "blue hose" of the name IS talking about the blue hose that the Scotsmen wore... just their actual mascot is a little Scottish guy running around. Come ON, it's FUNNY! Even people who go to PC laugh about it.
