cardinal

Nickname of sports teams at Leland Stanfurd Junior University. Named after the color, hence teams are called "the cardinal" as opposed to "the Cardinals" The name was chosen due to a lack of creativity on campus after the "Indians" name was terminated due to political correctness.

Person 1: What's your favorite college football team?

Stanfurd Fan: The cardinal

Person 1: I asked for your favorite college football team, not your favorite color...
