You Just Watch, They’ll Pick ‘Wally’

By Matt Sussman | Feb 25, 2008 | Filed Under Hockey

walleyenaming.jpgThe selection of Wally as the mascot name of Toledo Walleye could be trumped in shocking selections only by Raul Castro as successor to the president of Cuba. But nevertheless, The Blade and The Andersons are holding a contest to name the mascot.

My vote: Chuck Fin-ley. Now, someone submit that for me. I’m out of stamps. ◼ Toledo Blade

    So I’m watching some Olympic water polo match online (yes, I know) and it’s halftime. The song they picked? Why, the instrumental version of “Cotton-Eye Joe.” Not sure what’s more shocking. That they’re playing the instrumental version of “Cotton-Eye Joe,” or that someone made an instrumental version of “Cotton-Eye Joe.” Is this how all water polo matches go? ◼ NBCOlympics.com
