Mascot Rankings: NFL

Who even cares how the team is actually playing?

Mascot Rankings: NFL

The NFL is full of dozens of great players and great teams. Behind each of these teams is a mascot that can hold their own too. Instead of deciding who's the best based off the number of wins, I've ranked the teams over how likely their mascots would win in a fight. Yay!! P.S. If the team has a contrasting mascot name and mascot on the field, I'm basing it off the name, because I make the rules here.

32. Washington Football Team

https://twitter.com/PFF/status/1326159181846618112/photo/1

Mascot: Nothing but vibes I guess (as seen from the photo above)

My Ranking: 32- I'm super glad that this team finally ditched their old mascot, but there could have been a little more effort to come up with a new one.

31. Kansas City Chiefs

https://twitter.com/Chiefs/status/1273334435220533248/photo/1

Mascot: Chiefs/K.C. Wolf

My Ranking: 31- Sad to do this to Patrick Mahomes, but the history behind this mascot name makes me very unhappy.

30. San Francisco 49ers

https://twitter.com/49ers/status/1322993090827706368/photo/1

Mascot: 49ers/Sourdough Sam (couldn't find a good picture)

My Ranking: 30- Hopefully the last of the problematic mascots (fingers crossed), but honoring the 1849 gold rush where I've discovered thousands of Indigenous people were killed is not the move.

29. Cleveland Browns

https://twitter.com/BrownsChomps/status/892070864426078208/photo/1

Mascot: Browns/Chomps

My Ranking: 29- This one had me worried, but it's just some dude's last name.

28. Green Bay Packers

https://twitter.com/packers/status/1325155686402166784/photo/1

Mascot: Packers

My Ranking: 28- I hate packing as much as the next person but devoting a whole team to it? Seems strange.

27. Pittsburgh Steelers

https://twitter.com/Teresa_Varley/status/1327327484455620609/photo/1

Mascot: Steelers/Steely McBeam (couldn't find a good picture)

My Ranking: 27- Another weird one, not to mention the name Steely McBeam sounds like a child came up with it.

26. Los Angeles Chargers

https://twitter.com/Chargers/status/1325538930083524610/photo/1

Mascot: Chargers

My Ranking: 26- It's funnier if you imagine a bunch of phone and laptop chargers coming at you.

25. Arizona Cardinals

https://twitter.com/Heather_Janssen/status/1119659185149341696/photo/1

Mascot: Cardinals/Big Red

My Ranking: 25- I just keep repeating the line "And I'm still Big Red" from the cheer in Bring It On.

24. Baltimore Ravens

https://twitter.com/Ravens/status/1326943958732255235/photo/1

Mascot: Ravens/Poe (couldn't find a good picture)
My Ranking: 22- I mean, if it's a fight against Edgar Allan Poe, then they'd win.

23. Houston Texans

https://twitter.com/TexansTORO1/status/1324805986100674562/photo/2

Mascot: Texans/Toro

My Ranking: 23- I dig Toro's gloves, but they also look sort of like his hands are covered in blood. The blood of their opponents perhaps?

22. New England Patriots

https://twitter.com/WFAN660/status/1088830560234020864/photo/1

Mascot: Patriots/Pat Patriot

My Ranking: 22- I'm just waiting for those massive eyebrows to slither off his face.

21. Los Angeles Rams

https://twitter.com/RampageNFL/status/1326933684629303296/photo/1

Mascot: Rams/Rampage

My Ranking: 21- It looks so furry; I want to touch it so bad.

20. Miami Dolphins

https://twitter.com/jcfphotog/status/1221936441829228544/photo/1

Mascot: Dolphins/T.D.

My Ranking: 20- There's no porpoise (see what I did there?) for giving him a helmet so small.

19. Indianapolis Colts

https://twitter.com/ColtsEvents/status/1304770805876895744/photo/1

Mascot: Colts/Blue

My Ranking: 19- Is Blue giving us a mask photoshoot?

18. Denver Broncos

https://twitter.com/sportsphotos/status/673305866091651075/photo/1

Mascot: Broncos/Miles

My Ranking: 18- He's at the top of my list in snow angel form.

17. Buffalo Bills

https://twitter.com/MattBarkley/status/1325856316724830209/photo/1

Mascot: Bills/Billy Buffalo (couldn't find a good picture)

My Ranking: 17- I know technically their mascot is a bill, but come on, they couldn't name themselves the Buffalo buffalos, so I'm going to still count them as buffalo, because that's what they are at heart.

16. Seattle Seahawks

https://twitter.com/BlitzTheSeahawk/status/1307696602664980482/photo/1

Mascot: Seahawks/Blitz

My Ranking: 16- Those wings are epic.

15. Atlanta Falcons

https://twitter.com/FreddieFalcon/status/1307071025876738049/photo/2

Mascot: Falcons/Freddie Falcon

My Ranking: 15- Just like Freddie, I, too, go straight for the cupcakes.

14. Philadelphia Eagles

https://twitter.com/Eagles/status/432967060864237568/photo/1

Mascot: Eagles, Swoop

My Ranking: 14- Not much of a reason for this one, just flies in the middle of the pack (ba dum tss).

13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

https://twitter.com/CaptainFear/status/1243523896986537984/photo/1

Mascot: Buccaneers/Captain Fear

My Ranking: 13- Well, the fear thing wasn't an exaggeration, because WTF is wrong with this guy? Don't let kids within a hundred feet- they'll be scarred for life.

12. Las Vegas Raiders

https://twitter.com/Raiders/status/1326358995217625089/photo/1

Mascot: Raiders/Raider Rusher (couldn't find a good picture)

My Ranking: 12- A raider is basically just another name for pirate just like a buccaneer. The only main difference is this team's mascot won't haunt my dreams (Although if you look it up, it's honestly not much better).

11. Dallas Cowboys

https://twitter.com/JackFMDFW/status/1049721157509771264/photo/1

Mascot: Cowboys/Rowdy

My Ranking: 11- If you're reading this Dak, I love you.

10. Minnesota Vikings

https://twitter.com/ViktorTheViking/status/1313231551803674626/photo/1

Mascot: Vikings/Viktor

My Ranking: 10- Bonus points for being featured in a Lizzo song.

9. New York Jets

https://twitter.com/nyjets/status/1325907959361245184/photo/1

Mascot: Jets

My Ranking: 9- Pick your poison. A fancy, flying airplane or some jazz-squaring youths from West Side Story. Both equally scary options.

8. Jacksonville Jaguars

https://twitter.com/BigCatCountry/status/878236308295909376/photo/1

Mascot: Jaguars/Jaxon De Ville

My Ranking: 8- Whoever wears the mascot suit here does not get paid enough.

7. Carolina Panthers

https://twitter.com/Panthers/status/1325454256489574401/photo/3

Mascot: Panthers/Sir Purr

My Ranking: 7- Just like Sir Purr, I, too, would also like to pose with a Krispy Kreme sign.

6. Cincinnati Bengals

https://twitter.com/Bengals/status/1326285578367881216/photo/1

Mascot: Bengals/Who Dey (couldn't find a good picture)

My Ranking: 6- Calling themselves Bengals instead of plain-old tigers gives some extra spice that I appreciate.

5. Detroit Lions

https://twitter.com/LSJNews/status/1059426627392688128/photo/1

Mascot: Lions/Roary

My Ranking: 5- This mascot's name and long, brown hair is making me really want to make a Gilmore Girls reference.

4. Chicago Bears

https://twitter.com/JaceTEvans/status/1307843153089589253/photo/1

Mascot: Bears/Staley Da Bear

My Ranking: 4- It's sort of like mask inception here.

3. New York Giants

https://twitter.com/Giants/status/1326313709896044544/photo/4

Mascot: Giants

My Ranking: 3- Didn't work out well for Jack circa Jack & the Beanstalk. Or did it? I honestly can't remember how that fairytale ended.

2. New Orleans Saints

https://twitter.com/Saints/status/1321211109047705602/photo/1

Mascot: Saints/Sir Saint/Gumbo

My Ranking: 2- Saints have the Big Guy on their side, and I wouldn't bet against him.

1. Tennessee Titans

https://twitter.com/JoshMooreHL/status/1262840977368154114/photo/1

Mascot: Titans/ T-Rac

My Ranking: 1- The raccoon aside (although you do love to see it), not a lot beats a Titan... Unless you were any other football team in the Omaha Metro, then you regularly beat the Titans at my high school.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

There have been many lessons learned.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
