Dedication At Its Finest: French Soccer Team's Mascot Was Stretchered Off The Field After Losing Its Head While Getting Speared By Its Rival

This is what being a mascot is all about. You stay committed to the bit no matter what. We saw the Oregon Duck last week sprint out of the stadium because he lost his head pretending to be Deion Sanders. Now we go to France and we have a spear that makes Edge jealous. Speaking of which, welcome to AEW, Adam Copeland. 

Now that's a good, clean tackle, even in Roger's soft world. Didn't put his body weight on him, led with the shoulder, wrapped up. We should bring in this mascot for tackling drills across youth football in America if we're being honest. Stop trying to lay guys out and make the tackle! But, you see, anyone can get stretched out of the arena here. That's the mascot cheap laugh. This is about staying dedicated and making sure that head is back on before you get on the stretcher. 

I'm fascinated by mascots. Not because they are funny or anything like that. But the fact that a grown person decides, yeah, that's what I'm going to do and then stays dedicated is something we need to hear from. I know they hide their identity, but if I was like Cosmo the Cougar, I'd be letting everyone know it was me in the hope of soaking. This mascot rules. 

Huge miss by the mascot here though not to give a big thumbs up when getting stretchered out. You're already committed to the tackle, might as well lean all the way into it. I gotta say though, I expected this in college football not French soccer.
