Let's just say that in the era of Weinergate you just can't have a mascot like this:

The Amarillo Sox, an independent minor league team in Texas, were expecting to have a huge hit on their hands by unveiling a new team mascot over the weekend.

Instead, they got this ... this ... this monster!*

Oops...didn't see rickl's earlier post on this. Have to say, though, that as stupid as this is it's not NSFW in my opinion.

Just kind of stupid.

This story has been linked at a number of sites by now.  I don't remember where I saw it, but one commenter compared it to the turkey drop on WKRP in Cincinnati.

One of the best sit-com episodes ever.

For your nostalgic viewing pleasure, the final six minutes of the episode:
