Sports Mascots Are Amazing!


Hey friends it's Oz here again for a mascot edition of The Oz Files. I have come up with a genius animal themed blog. I have chosen to go to the sports world and discuss what are the best MLB mascots that have an animal theme? I would go into the other sports but we would be here all day. So we start with the American League teams and will touch base with all the teams that have an animal for a mascot OK here we go! We start off our trek out on the east coast down to Baltimore Maryland the home of the Baltimore Orioles. I think when you have an oriole for a mascot I think you lose a lot of man points because an oriole is a little bird and it's kind of a weak bird and it needs to get out of the O zone! We proceed to the Midwest in lovely Detroit Michigan. The home of the Detroit Tigers and a tiger is a pretty damn good mascot. He's got the nasty growl and strikes fears into the opponents so be jealous. We head to the west coast to the wonderful Seattle Washington home of the Seattle Mariners. The mascot is the mariners but they have the Mariners Moose and the guy is epic. He goes around the country putting on great shows for all the fans and one day I guarantee you he will be in the mascot hall of fame and yes there is one. The moose is so so good he drinks his milk unlike Leah! We now head out to Tampa Florida home of the RAYS. Having a sting ray as your mascot that is pretty cool because it can sting it's prey and put them down with shame. The Rays can swim and they are ever so elusive. We visit our last AL city and that is way up in Toronto OH Canada the home of the Toronto Bluejays. Once again a bird that is not a hawk or vulture or a raven isn't all that and a bag of chips. So a blue jay would lose in a battle again all animals may have a chance with the Oriole oh boy! Now we head to the NL and back to the west coast representing! We head down to Phoenix Arizona the home of the Arizona Diamondbacks. A diamondback is basically a bad ass rattlesnake. A snake strikes fears in the eyes of men and women and children! When you hear the rattling of the snake you stop drop and roll enough said! We are back in the Midwest landing in Chicago Illinois. Home of the Chicago Cubs they have a bear as a mascot. That's pretty cool however a cub is a baby bear so it's not that great. If a big bear locked eyes with the cub bear I don't want to think what would happen but the cubs gotta love em the lovable losers. Our adventures lead us to Miami Florida the home of the Florida Marlins. The Marlin is a huge fish with a pointy nose to fend off predators. I think the marlin could be one of the bad ass fish around. When an opponent comes along all he has to do is stab them in the face! Watch out for the corn hole bud! Our last destination lands us in the Midwest once again in St. Louis Missouri the home of the St. Louis Cardinals. Once again another bird but a cardinal isn't such a bad bird to be I can assure you it can beat the ass out of a blue jay and an oriole on a 2 on 1 handicap match. The reason being the cardinals are just amazing! Well what do you think of this mascot chatter? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!
