No, this is not a uniform thread, and I haven't seen this discussed much (and none as of late, unless I missed it)

Ignore the quality of the article, but it did get me thinking a bit. Since we changed the logo some, should we change the mascot as well to reflect the more aggressive nature?

Or is it one of those things that nobody give a rat's ass about?

mascots are designed to appeal to little kids and as such i doubt sir purr is going to be screwed around with

of course there are people who don't understand this and think he should drive a tank that sprays jim beam from a fire hose and launches fleshlights into the stands during pregame but what can you do.

This is quite possibly the truest thing ever posted on the Huddle.

The Washington Nationals did this - and it works for them but I don't think Purr would look good all cracked out and skinny. We don't want a sickly cat as our logo and our mascot.

rep for fleshlight comment. the visual in my head is hilarious. Pocket pussies hitting fans in the face, fights breaking out etc

Sir Purr is ghey but I have been unable to think of an alternative that serves the same purpose. Young franchises have to market to the young. The younger the better. Marketing 101.

Sir Purr is not there for us.
