Why does every team need a mascot now?
If you say "to appeal to children" I will crack you in the face because kids don't buy tickets, merchandise, cable TV packages, or do any of the things important to make money for a franchise. If you want to keep a kid interested at sporting event, explain the game and show him how to play. If he or she isn't, maybe the sport isn't for them and you should know better shelling out that kind of cash.
Well, not to be outdone by Steeley Mcbeam and the rest of the mascot fraternity, the St. Louis Blues are introducing a saxophone playing bear. They are asking fans to vote on the name. All of the options are vanilla and lame. We have a few of our own and want to put it to a vote for the HHR reader.
Should the new name be:
A.) Stupid
B.) Horn-y
C.) Beary Gay
D.) Fozzy Nuts
E.) Oprah
F.) Teddy Suxbin
It's your call.
