He saw the oppurtunity to be closer to home, and jumped two feet into the relo.

I'm guessing it didn't play as well to the females as orignially envisioned. Hell of an idea though and I can't say the 20 year old verson of me isn't impressed with the execution of procuring one.

If the reactions of my wife and daughter to this are any indication, it would have played VERY well.

That lasted all of 5 days? Kids these days and their short attention spans.

They found out that to get a wallaby to go to the bathroom an owner has to rub its genitals (this is actually true).

Samson has a substance abuse problem and he has checked into rehab marching in side-by-side with Lindsay Lohan. Wangler was enraged after seeing his possessions at a local pawn shop and a $2k phone bill with calls to several females back in Australia, not all of them wallabies (rumor Nicole Kidman and there was a restraining order issued).

Morally casual foreigners. Sigh. Back to Meechigan Football.

G'day Samson.

I would challenge the team to adopt a wolverine or a beluga whale but then they'd probably follow through with it.

I can't wait to see what Harbaugh brings as his pet.

Edit: Here's my bet.

Aren't they cute? And they only grow to the size of a medium dog.

[T]hese little guys chew your face off. It's among the interesting behaviors Wolverines exhibit. Your face. Chewed off at light speed. Because. Consider bucknuts and staee, the Harbaugh Wolverine it stalks you. Never relents. Not ever. Particularly in Teams.

I can't imagine us being Trojans, Legionaires, Spartans, odd tree nuts, billy goats, bill the cat, wimpy rodents (I'm looking at you, Mr. Gopher) or any other silly mascot.

Of course the Michigan Simians has a nice ring to it.
