Clippers Working On Creating Mascot

Post #1 » by **RealGM Wiretap** » Wed Sep 2, 2015 5:45 pm

The Los Angeles Clippers are in the planning stages of having a team mascot.

They are unlikely to have the mascot ready for opening night, but they hope to have it in place by the All-Star break.

The Clippers' mascot would attend community events to represent the team in addition to game duties.

This is great news! Well done Clippers, this should add some more excitement to the in-game atmosphere and make it more fun for kids especially

Wonder what the mascot will be. Hopefully not a Window because of Ballmer and microsoft lol?

Should put paperclips all over his body, so its like his fur is made of paperclips.

It looks like you need a mascot.

Clippy the paperclip.

A giant crying baby would be appropriate.

What they need to do is track down the graphic artists who designed their new logo and uniforms...

...and make sure they don't accidentally hire those guys again.

Go with a donut, blue icing, red and white sprinkles. Call him the dunking donut and get a sponsorship, done.

That's actually pretty good, but let's send it to Sacramento instead. Vivek would love the idea.

I don't understand why people don't like the new Clippers logo.
Its one of the 3 best logos in the NBA in my opinion, and looks cooler than the Lakers logo.

Ha ha... I actually like all the new Clip graphics, too. I just saw an opportunity to make a joke and score some cheap And1s.

Unfortunately, nobody bit.

A sailboat with legs?... the t-shirt cannon would suddenly make perfect sense!

OK, maybe a patriotic pirate.

I agree jokes are hard.
