I heard today that "amazing" is so overused it has lost meaning: Bringing AMAZING back. Stories inspired by a phrase familiar to me: "You're amazing but... I don't want to date you." Plus dinosaurs and music and other amazing things I make excuses for and amazing things that shouldn't be excused. So, basically anything I like and my crazy stories. Right. If you feel the urge, you can send me dinosaurs or other amazing things at: sarahtricera@gmail.com
Now, I am not at all into watching basketball, but I do love a mascot.
Particularly a ridiculous mascot.
I might have to start watching the 76ers.
Here are your three choices - you can vote here and see more views (and outfits! Click to enlarge so you can see their shoes!) :
Big Ben
I am a fan of Big Ben’s stomach - he’ll be able to wield that thing just like the Phanatic, terrifying children and adults alike with his thrusting.
B. Franklin Dogg
Note the double g in his name, this Dogg knows where it’s at with his liberty bell hat, though with the bell on the collar he might be trying too hard.
And finally… May I present:
Phil. E. Moose
Yup, a moose.
Sure, we all know about Ben Franklin, and maybe he had a dog, and Philly loves dogs (and most of Philly loves Michael Vick even though he seems to hate dogs), but a moose?
It would be hard to play basketball with those antlers.
And his shoes - they’re like pilgrim sneakers, complete with buckle.
The origination story is complete nonsense.
It’s a hard choice - Big Ben’s got that tummy and amazing eyebrows like wings, but Phil. E. is the most ridiculous mascot ever inappropriately anthropomorphized.
I might have to go with the Moose.
