Some fun, some serious

Okay, so I might have a strange mascot fetish, but this is just too funny. Check out Wilkes College first life-size mascot: the Colonel:

Okay seriously, how funny is that. Students were given the opportunity to “try-out” to be the mascot. I wonder what sort of freakish 8th grade cheer leading moves mixed with dangerous amounts of alcohol that entailed?

Good luck to the Colonels and their new freakish mascot.

In other news, I wanted to send my best to Hanover College whose week long cancellation due to the remnants of Hurricane Ike has hindered the athletic schedule there. I hope all the athletes are hanging in there!

While we’re on bad news, the NCAA is reporting that costs for championship travel rose over 7% in the last year and 43% over the last three years. So that’s what all those tuition increases have been for.

That’s all for today sports fans.

    Hey, just a little correction: it’s Wilkes University; not Wilkes College.
