Sports and Mascots are not really my thing

If you started a sports team, what would the colors and mascot be?

I’m not big into sports. Never really have been, but that’s not to say I don’t occasionally enjoy watching, it just doesn’t rank very high on the priority list for entertainment.

If I DID have a sports team, it might be a soccer team.

Obviously the mascot would have to be a dragon. Unfortunately, there are tons of teams across multiple sports (ranging from high school through professional leagues) that have a dragon as a mascot, and picking colors to differentiate would be tough. Currently, the University of Alabama at Birmingham has a dragon mascot (named Blaze) and their colors are Forest Green and Old Gold, which would be the closest to the choices I was looking at before researching the topic for today’s writing prompt. It also doesn’t help that I’m not practiced in color coordination, so picking colors was a challenge. I didn’t want both colors to be darker shades, or one super bright and vibrant, but I did come up with a couple possibilities.

  • Parakeet (#03C04A) and Sage (#728C69)
  • Parakeet (#03C04A) and Vintage Aqua (#6AB4C9)

Not sure how well these two combinations would work, but they seemed like good ones to me.
