Most of you are aware of the Mariner Moose, but in case you're not, Red Sox Monster has the appropriate description:
He's also a clumsy, stupid oaf who needs to be stopped. ...If you sense a little anger in that statement, it can be explained. The Mariner Moose nearly took Coco Crisp's legs off Sunday before the Rex Sox-Mariners game. (HT:Barstool Sports)
... Mariner Moose, hear me out: You are a mascot. A circus clown. A court jester covered in faux fur, employed for the soul purpose of amusing baseball fans in between innngs, when there is nothing better to watch.
At least Coco was amused ... sort of:
"Never really gotten hit by a moving vehicle before. That was the most athletic thing I did all day," Crisp said, grinning after the moose's ATV hit the back of his legs and knocked him to his knees on the infield warning track at the beginning of a stunt in front of Boston's dugout in the middle of the fifth inning.Source: (Red Sox Monster)... "It didn't hit me flush. I didn't see it, but I heard it," Crisp said. "Weird."
... "I'm not an angry man," Crisp said. "It was an accident. I mean, I'm not going to run over and clothesline the guy."
