The Rays Now Lead The AL East In Mascots
Say hello to DJ Kitty, who has crossed over from scoreboard videos to a real live man-in-suit. Don't worry, there's still a home for Raymond (who, as I learned from his bio, is actually a Canus Manta Whatthefluffalus). It's just that the Rays wanted to be the first team to get their mascot-to-specta...

Obie The Orange Bowl Mascot Leaves The Hospital, Probably With A Really Intense Painkiller Addiction
It's been nearly a week since Obie was destroyed by WVU's Darwin Cook, and he (she!) is in for a lifetime of physical therapy and never-ending pain. But, baby steps. The Orange Bowl tweeted a photo of Obie leaving the hospital this afternoon, with a message for Cook....

After Being Leveled By Darwin Cook, The Orange Bowl Mascot Will Never Juice Again
This actually came at the end of the 99-yard fumble recovery we showed you last night, and raises a greater paradox than Schrödinger's cat: how do you decapitate a mascot that is only a head? Darwin Cook tried his damndest with a clothesline on Obie, the anthropomorphic Orange Bowl orange....

Molesty Sixers Mascot Needs Somebody Inside Him
We're just going to assume that B. Franklin Dogg is going to win the fan vote to become the next 76ers mascot, because his bedroom eyes and S&M collar make us laugh every time. He's McGruff, the Sex Crime Dog. "Hey kids! B. Franklin Dogg's van is full of candy!"...

A Perfectly Designed Killing Machine, The Phillie Phanatic Silently Stalks Its Prey
If you take nothing else from this insane week in sports, let it be the fact that the Phillie Phanatic was born in the Galapagos Islands. MLB has photos of the Philadelphia mascot furbirdthing "returning to his homeland" to terrify wildlife and hawk his book to local children. [MLB.com via The700Lev...

Your 76ers Mascot Choices Are A.) Patriotic B.) Molesty C.) Tripping Balls
Hip-Hop is dead. But of the contenders to the throne—Big Ben, B. Franklin Dogg, and Phil E. Moose—only one can represent the Sixers with hot dog cannons blazing. It's up to you to vote, but there's not really a lesser of three evils here. [Sixers.com]...

Forgive Us For Overlooking The Brewers Fan Drinking Through A Horse Mask Last Night
Some good baseball last night. Hell, even the Milwaukee/Pittsburgh game mattered a little, in the sense that the Brewers now have home field in their NLDS. Tipster Steven F. was there to see it. But, he got distracted in the process of doing so. To wit:...

Somebody Stole A Minor-League Baseball Mascot's Head And That Makes People Sad
"'Stomper' the bear disappeared from All Pro Freight Stadium in Avon [Ohio] sometime last month. With eight games left to go in the season, fans immediately took notice. 'He's a little overweight and that keeps him warm in the winters. He's fun-loving and loves to dance,' said Crushers V.P. Dan He...

You Can Now Buy The Amarillo Sox Mascot That Had A Huge Erection
The Amarillo Sox Sock had one priapic night in the spotlight, before being consigned to the bottom of the hamper of history. Now the independent league Sox are auctioning off the outfit, presumably for use in sex pervert games, with all proceeds going to charity. [eBay]...

Curtis Granderson And The Orioles's Mascot Shared A Moment This Afternoon
It's impossible to determine exactly what Yankees centerfielder Curtis Granderson and the Oriole Bird were discussing during pregame calisthenics....

Furries May Have Unwittingly Announced That Next Year's NHL Draft Will Be Held In Pittsburgh
Here's the title of a post from The Hockey News this morning: "Rescheduling of 'Furry' convention in Pittsburgh points to Penguins hosting 2012 NHL Draft." Oh really? Go on:...

The Amarillo Sox Sock is dead. Long live the Amarillo Sox Sock....

Here's To The Normal People Who Went To The Pittsburgh Furry Convention And Took 342 Pictures
Sometimes, words beyond "thank you, Penguins play-by-play guy Paul Steigerwald and Friends" are unnecessary. This is one of those times....

The Phillie Phanatic Isn't The Only Mascot Who Took A Ball To The Head Recently
Seeing video of the Phillie Phanatic take a foul ball to the face reminded tipster Kevin G. of when he saw "Buddy Bat" of Louisville Bats mascottery fame feel the wrath of a wild warm-up pitch to tha dome a few weeks back. To wit:...

The Phillie Phanatic Takes A Foul Ball To The Face
The giant fuzzy sex fiend got a ball just under the snout (proboscis?) at a minor league game last night. He (or the human inside) went to the emergency room, and was treated for a contusion and released. He won't miss any time, and will return to the usual boring mascot hazard of being pummeled i...

Undressed Mascot Loses Job, Regains Job, Confuses Adolescents
This is 40-year-old Tracy Chandler, who parades about as the Doncaster Rovers' mascot. Or as thousands of Yorkshire youngsters are now saying, "Donny...what...?"...

Man Dry Humps Cleveland Indians Mascot
The summary of dude's video explains, "He's not wearing any pants. It just seemed right." Dude. Epic move, brah....

Sad Pitino. Sad Bird.
Rick Pitino's Cardinals became the first, but certainly not the last high seed to bow out early. There's justice in an unlikable coach falling to an obscure-therefore-likable team, and there's a joke somewhere in Pitino getting bounced by a team called Morehead State. Maybe you can find one....

Sluggerrr Sued For Ol' Hot-Dog-In-The-Eye Trick
You know, Sluggerrr is quite terrifying when you really look at him. But no one has more to fear from the Royals mascot than John Coomer, who testified this week that he suffered a severe eye injury when he was the target of a thrown hot dog in 2009....

The IOC Was This Close To Owning Santa Claus
Saturday, the Russian Olympic Committee announced the results of voting for the 2014 Olympic mascots. (They picked a snowboarding snow leopard, and a fluffy bunny and cheerful bear. They're boring.) But one of the 10 nominees didn't even make it to voting. Ded Moroz ("Father Frost"), the Russian ver...
