What exactly do you mean? I'm guessing there is a photo of him in there
somewhere.

He's featured in a display of baseball mascots. I think the Phillie
Phanatic is one of the others, but I dunno the third.

The San Diego chicken of course.

Youppi! can join Badaboum on the island of misfit mascots.

This embarrassment called You-Pee should have been retired in the
early 80's.

Just my 2 cents (Cdn).

Have you thought about some kind of intervention to deal with your anger
issues?

Anger? No way.

Embarassment over this travesty of a mascot? Absolutely. Makes me want
to leave Quebec..... Oooops. Already did.

Well, look at it this way; we could have giant sausages running around
between innings, or a caricaturized native...

Just because you fled Quebec doesn't mean you can't still embrace it's
culture. As a teenager, the only thing Quebec meant to me was being able to
buy beer underage in Hull. Now I have a ceramic Youppi! in my china
cabinet.

Or we could just admit that whole "mascot" thing is an embarrassment
and drop it.

I fled Quebec because of its poor economic prospects and racist
language laws. I don't mind the culture, but I don't embrace it
either.

Mt souvenirs include a program from the Expos' 1st year with Coco and
Mack. If it wasn't for the fact that I have two family members in
Mtl., I'd never return.

There's always President Bush's rock-solid support for Prime Minister Poutine.
