I know the Nets fired their old mascot for the bad PR he gave them when they had some kind of "We'll pay your turnpike toll" promotion. He was standing on the dividers between the toll boths, which the police did not enjoy. It was for fan appreciation day, the last game of the season a few years ago. They fired the kid and had him replaced a few nights later for the playoffs.

The bird putting his beak on her head at the end was one of the best weenie taps I have seen since '97. Insult to injury,

I was going to make some smart-ass comment after reading Nikky's bio on the Falcons website, but after reading some of the shit she wrote, I am just going to let her words speak for themselves.

That is some definite nightmare fuel for that blonde.

And also a highlight of my day. Hilarity ensues.

Wow, talk about recoil! And what a perfect angle! Seriously, I don't think he could have produced a better whiplash if he had tried.

That falcon should be working for NASA.
