Rutgers mascot not diverse enough; ethnic and gender-neutral Scarlet Knights to be sought
The Scarlet Knight at a recent Rutgers basketball game.
I've been trying to get to this all week but Tom Brady and Manny Pacquiao's shoulder and live-streaming piracy and all this other stuff kept getting in the way. But did you hear that a kid in the Rutgers student assembly introduced a bill asking that more diversity be exhibited in the university's Scarlet Knight mascot?
Yes, first-year assemblyman - sorry, assemblyperson - Emmet Brennan crafted a bill that was easily passed, mandating that the Knight be more representative of the State University of New Jersey's rich diversity.
As Steve Politi of our sister site nj.com wrote on Tuesday, if you didn't know better, you'd immediately think this was ripped straight from The Onion. But it's not.
The Rutgers University Student Assembly recently passed a bill intended to support ethnic and gender diversity by adding multiple Scarlet Knights that could be black, Latino, Asian, female or third gender in addition to the existing Caucasian Scarlet Knight.
Honestly, I want to see the new third-gender Knight. I might actually pay to attend a Rutgers football game just to see this.
As you doubtless know, the Knight as he's currently composed, looks like the stereotypical hetero white male. Caucasian complexion. Blue eyes. Frozen smile. Giant foam burgonet helmet. Flamboyant scarlet plume waving out the top. Really big cartoonlike hands made to look like gauntlets. I mean, he's Joe Six Pack straight out of a Tea Party rally.
According to reporter Katie Park, news editor of The Daily Targum, Brennan is a School of Environmental and Biological Sciences first-year student. Based on his Facebook page, he appears to be Caucasian. Park quoted his rationale this way:
"What we were thinking - the way the bill's laid out - it's not defined that we need an Asian knight, a black knight, a Latino knight. That we would really leave it up to the different student organizations . and basically the student body as a whole to determine how many knights they'd like and what these knights would represent."
According to the Targum story, Brennan conceptualized the bill when he noticed at a Rutgers football game that the Knight had light skin and blue eyes:
"This does not seem right. Our mascot does not represent how diverse we are as a school.
"The bill did pass the body, and it wasn't by a slim margin. [But] there were some concerns over the [new] mascot possibly being offensive if it wasn't done properly."
And, boy - I mean, man; I mean, person - the last thing anyone wants to be is offensive with one's mascot.
Because cartoon-character embodiments at athletic contests clearly need to reflect the student body at large, I've drawn up a rough outline of possible additions to the traditional Scarlet Knight that transcend mere ethnicity and could translate to any major university. I mean, if we're going to be diverse and inclusive, let's do it:
* Drunken Belligerent Knight would honor the rich tradition of college students learning how to overindulge in alcohol for the first time.
* Freshman Fifteen Knight would celebrate the lack of sleep and exercise and mass consumption of carb-heavy cafeteria food and bagged snacks resulting in a gain of >15 pounds for many first-year students. Suddenly Obese Knight is also an option.
* Daddy Issue Knight is a sullen, tatted-up knight with Goth makeup who's clearly just trying to embarrass his father.
* Socially Awkward Knight would interact inappropriately with fans in an attempt to gain acceptance and then slink away, not understanding why they boo.
* Frat-Boy Knight could spend the game bragging to fans and the other knights about his trust fund, his sexual conquests that didn't actually happen, how little he had to study for his Entrepreneurship 323 exam and belching the alphabet.
* Join Our Cause Knight would pester with earnest activism while simultaneously using it as an entree to pick up other knights as sexual partners.
These are just brainstorms; I'm open to your ideas.
Further, it's clear to me that it may be time to diversify the Penn State Nittany Lion mascot. So, I'm anxious to hear your suggestions on that, too.

Reviews for "The Art of Trading: How to Navigate the Magic Beanie Bop Marketplace"
1. John Smith - 2 stars
I have to say, "Magic Beanie Bop" was a huge disappointment for me. The concept seemed intriguing, but the execution fell flat. The plot was convoluted and lacked any real substance. The characters were one-dimensional and lacked depth, making it difficult for me to connect with them. Overall, the film felt disjointed and confusing. I was left feeling unsatisfied and wishing I had spent my time on something else.
2. Emily Johnson - 1 star
I couldn't stand "Magic Beanie Bop". The storyline was incredibly predictable, and the humor felt forced and juvenile. The acting was subpar at best, with wooden performances from the entire cast. The special effects looked cheap and tacky, failing to immerse me in the supposed magical world. I was genuinely bored throughout the entire film and couldn't wait for it to be over. Save your money and time and avoid "Magic Beanie Bop" at all costs.
3. David Thompson - 2 stars
"Magic Beanie Bop" had an interesting premise, but it failed to deliver on its potential. The pacing was all over the place, and there were numerous plot holes that were never addressed. The dialogue was cringe-worthy and poorly written, making it difficult to take any of the characters seriously. The film relied too heavily on cheap jump scares rather than genuine suspense, which ultimately made it more frustrating than entertaining for me. Overall, "Magic Beanie Bop" lacked the magic it promised and left me unimpressed.
