Osler's Razor

Yeah, ok, so I am a little obsessed this week. I'll admit it. You can haiku about any mascot you want, but here are some suggestions:

1) Goldy the Gopher (Minnesota)



He was the star of the Big 10 "Call Me Maybe" video, he has the best tail in sports, and he stands by one of the worst football teams in the BCS. Now that's a mascot!

2) Keggy the Keg (Dartmouth)



Keggy is the mascot at Dartmouth. More than that need not be said.

3) Bucky Badger (Wisconsin)



Bucky is always... well, he suits Wisconsin pretty well.

4) Cookie Monster (Univ. of Illinois)



After the University of Illinois had to ditch their former mascot, Chief Illini-Wek, they adopted Cookie Monster as their new mascot. He leads the crowd in singing "C is for Illinois" among other things. I see intellectual property issues on the horizon...


5) Handsome Dan (Yale)



Um, yeah. I suppose this is the appropriate setting to explain Yale's mascot...

E) Cletus (Texas A & M)



Texas A & M used to have a mascot named "Sarge," but they updated it to "Cletus" with their move to the SEC.

6) Big Red (Western Kentucky)



What is it? No one really knows, but Big Red brings the fun.

7) Monopoly Guy (Harvard)



It was good of him to visit Occupy Wall Street....

8) Doofus the Duck (Oregon)



The glasses are so 1987, but the song is catchy...

So, here is mine:

Bruiser, Baylor's bear,
Saw him once driving a car
So... is that legal?

Now it is your turn... the winner gets their bio here on Monday!
