Nobody remembers the Omaha, Abbotsford or Stockton mascots.

Scorch was a magnificent bastard.

this as well as his murderous energy are what his charm is built on

Imagine Harvey the Hound killing a Calgary first responder. Just a weird choice.

This is baffling. Partner with CFD, do a new video where Scorch atones for the sins of his past, and make him the Wranglers mascot. It’s a slam-dunk marketing opportunity.

Like, who is in charge of their marketing department? I don’t know anything about marketing but I do know this is an easy easy win.

Harvey is a saint, I’m sure it would be self defence.

Wasn’t the Stockton one just a bullet proof vest?

First responders are safe, it's the postal workers who need to look out

It has less to do with the marketing department — they want Scorch, why do you think he was teased in the first place? — and more to do with the folks above.

I knew it was premature to be thanking ownership. Bunch of killjoys.

Should have at least had him punching someone.
