There are many reasons to cheer against the Spurs in their series against Chris Paul and the former NOOCH New Orleans Hornets. The rapidly multiplying Spurs mascots would have to be considered pretty high up on that list. Lord.

Benny The Bull Will Put A Cap In Your Ass

When talking about illegal mascot shenanigans, no one, of course, beats the drunken exploits of the Stanford Tree. But running a close second is Benny the Bull, the only NBA mascot with a criminal record for battery on a police officer. On Tuesday he was at it again, shooting the Celtics' Kevin Garnett and James Posey from behind with a T-shirt gun. Seems a bit unwise to me. More »

Jawz The Jaguar Vs. Eli The Eagle: This Isn't Over!


What started off as a friendly dance-off between a jaguar and an eagle — which you see so often in the wild — turned grim and frightening on Wednesday during a break in this Summit League Championship basketball game.

nightmare ant redux

He's Baaaaaaaaaaack!

If it were up to me I would not be reposting this. I find 'Nightmare Ant' creepy, intimidating and more than a little demonic. But the truth is, I have very little control over this site anymore. Neither does Will. Yeah, it's 'Nightmare Ant' calling the shots now. And if 'Nightmare Ant' wants his photo reposted or a link to some weird senior bowling story, so be it. More »

The Games are a mere 2 1/2 years from now, so these charming critters need to get right to work, doing, um, whatever it is they do. Informative and educational? Not in the least! Not a single one can actually be found in nature! More »

We don't want to sound like the PC police here, but seriously now: Is it really OK for Indians fans to be dressing up in red face? We're sure this is something they've been doing for a long time, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's OK. More »

The Mascots Are Attacking The Cheerleaders


We're not sure what possessed Freddie Falcon to smash a birthday cake into the face of an Atlanta Falcons cheerleader ... but we don't get the impression she was particularly happy about it.
