ALBERT: A QUALITY MASCOT.
Sure, your mascot might have “tradition.” But does he wear a beanie and get tackled by Steve Irwin? Albert makes a quality appearance in one of ESPN’s funnier commercials in recent memory, giving Steve Irwin the redassed beatdown he deserves.
Youtube: the best thing since penicillin and big asses.

Damn skippy we did. But a man in a plush mascot suit is always funny in our book, especially if he’s wrestling with Steve Irwin.

Those comercials are about the only thing that is good with ESPN.
The only other thing I could imagine being great ESPN tv, is if someone or anyone would best the piss out of Stewie Scott, Bill Walton, Stephen “Asshat” Smith, and Tubby Berman.
I HATE ESPN! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Have a great weekend.

Saw that one today, it is one of the better “This is Sportscenter” commercials I’ve seen lately.

At least Florida’s sports information folks aren’t the only ones who don’t know the difference between a croc and a gator. Sorry, couldn’t resist.

I know b-ball is the red-headed stepchild around here, but wouldn’t an LSU/UF championship game mean the end of the world or something?
