Actually Pandas have a huge connection with DC through the good will connection between China and the US. Go Pandas.
I still haven't seen a statement that says no animals. I think that is smoke like the list of 8.
Matty any chance to redo the poll on a new thread (this one is huge anyway) maybe doing Monuments, Commanders, Wolves, other (or leave Wolves off if you feel it has been ruled out.)
