Arthur over at Anaheim Calling wrote a short post about Anaheim's third jersey design, set to unveil on November 26. Then he sent me a text message saying, "I think it should be Sleektooned!"

So this morning I drew this rendition -- it doesn't really follow the description very well (zero homage to the club's history, for example), but it does represent some historic BoC cartoon themes pretty well.

Maybe next year. :)

Go Ducks.

Heh, it’s been brought to my attention that this design does pay homage to the Duck-blasting-through-the-ice jersey design. But that’s unintentional — I was just using the old webbed-foot-through-opponent’s-stomach cartoon gag. :)

The center element is great, and so are the memories it evokes. Your next cartoon should feature Ralph the Blue Duck wearing the jersey — it’d be a nice echo of the post in your link above, as well as a perfect representation of the 09-10 season. And the wings/feathers on the sleeves, being worn by a duck? Hee.

Yeah, the self-destructiveness is the key to this one — I guess it’s got all sorts of homage in there. :)

Looks like we get to start with 3 games in 4 nights, visiting Detroit, Nashville, and then St. Louis.

Might mean some early playing time for MiracElhinney.

Let’s get on with the Tabasco vs Tapatio debate. I’m hungry and you people need to choose for me.

Yeah, if we’re talking about eggs, I might say Tabasco. Anything else Tapatio wins.

Adding another vote for Tapatio. Sriracha is even better, if that is an option.

I’m actually a fan of Frank’s Red-Hot myself, stuff is awesome.

It advertises itself mostly as sauce for wings, but I put it on basically anything.

Oh, and I think I’m calling the inaugural Iron Blogger a Megalodon victory — 41 recs to Rudy’s 32 recs.

Excellent work, both of you.

I don’t ask people to spread the word about my greatness, but they go out and do it anyway. It’s one of the many ways I am exactly like Jesus.

If I was Rudy, I’d be gathering two large pieces of wood and some nails.

Yeah, I think there was some FtF favoritism in there. Next time Meg should post a picture of a turd or something, and if he still gets ~30 recs we’ll know something’s up.
