Brooke Has Something To Say About Training At Team GAMMA

I have been training Jiu-Jitsu about six months now. I wanted to try Jiu-Jitsu to have more power in my personal self-defense. In the pass I wished I have more training and this makes me feel safe as a woman in this world. I had a fear of looking like a complete idiot. which I mean kind of it went away over time because the more you learn the better you get the more you get comfortable in your body. How you can transfer your body

ECU Pirate Mascot ARRGGHH!!

ECU Pirate Mascot ARRGGHH!!

When East Carolina University was originally formed it was a “Teacher College” and was known as “The Teachers” so originally the pirate mascot was imaged after Edward Teach the infamous Black Beard Pirate from North Carolina. The tie in to Edward Teach and “The Teachers” didn’t catch on, so they changed it later to the “The Pirates”. Over the years the Pirate mascot was changed, from his image and his name, to be more children friendly.

Kind of interesting that the Pirate Nation started out from a unsavory outlaw with a dark image as the one I shared.

How ever the Pirates Mascot was Started, I know when I a traveling around the nation and sometimes around the world, if someone asks me where I am from, I will tell them Greenville North Carolina, if they look puzzled I say Eastern North Carolina, and then maybe I will say ECU Pirates. Then they know.

ARRGGHH!!
