Oh, so you're alive- but you're a baby. Well, we can't have a baby as our mascot. I win.

[ewing6]

i'm calling you a baby.

[metsguy234]

i'm calling you a baby.

Wow, that's hitting below the belt, man.

Hitting below the belt gets a disqualification in boxing, therefore you're disqualified and I win.
