Panthers in Sports.

Continuing our popular series, "Panthers in Sports," the National Concussion League "Panthers" play the Denver "Mischievous Horses"...sometime, I think February 7. The winner plays Alabama. That is not new.

Since last we treated of the Sunrise "Panthers" of the American Hockey League the team went into a deep but narrow swoon, losing a few games in a row, getting burnt to a crisp in one, to Ted Cruz' Calgary "Flames." Swoon and recovery coincided, much to the surprise of the undersigned, with the injury and return to health of 19 year old--you read that right, he won't be 20 till February 7, the day aforesaid--Aaron Ekblad. Young, young, Mr. Ekblad is nonetheless BIG, 6'3" and 213 lebs and not only anchors the defense anchors the whole dang litter or warren or covey or whatever a bunch of cats are called...A "clowder?" A bunch of cats is called a "clowder?" Get outta town. Never heard the word in my entire fucking life. A clowder. Aaron anchors the clowder of hockey "Panthers."

And since last we treated of the Picksburgh "Panthers" short pants boys basketball  team said team has been re-nicknamed the "Yo-Yo's." Got murdered by Louisville, murdered Boston College, got murdered by North Carolina State, meowed past Florida State, got clawed by Clemson. The Mystery of Pittsburgh has returned. If the yo-yoing returns Sunday they shall beat Virginia Tech.

Thus "Panthers in Sports" for January 29, 2016.
