Mini Pony of the Day 3-12-13

Thanks to AJ for this. He says:
I’m not sure if this qualifies as a mini pony, but it’s still funny.
Creepy, but I'll allow it. GIF below cos I'm still having trouble embedding:

Thanks to Rob Ullman and Cory and the guys at DSB for this (1:50 mark). Jon Stewart boldly proclaims that miniaturized versions of everything rule. And boy does he get that one right.

Steelers linebacker Lamarr Woodley tweeted the above picture today, of some dedicated Steelers fan who loves the team so much he inked the alternate black Terrible Towel onto his chest.
A fan tweeted this @ me and it was too cool not 2 share with yall!!!
I've never been a big fan of the black Terrible Towel. I've used the same gold one for years, and Heinz Field is known for the gold Towels flying. The black just reeks of when a ton of NFL teams decided to ditch the colors and go with all-black uniforms to look harder and copy the Steelers.
Plus, black Terrible Towels apparently have nipples in them.
Where does this rank in the pantheon of Steelers tattoos? My list of best to worst, below:
Keisel, Tomlin, Polamalu, Harrison sleeve tattoo
Keisel tattoo before the others were added
Annoyingly confusing Steelers Super Bowls back tattoo
STEELERS TATTOO WITH SCARY DERMAL IMPLANTS AHHHHH
This awful Steelers logo tattoo on Judge Joe Brown

Thanks to Ryan for this. He says:
saw something you should see. Central PA special
All the credit to pantster
Yes! Now while I'm partial to the Western half of Pennsylvania, I'd be blind to not love the abundance of mini ponies all over Central and Eastern PA, too.

Thanks to Anna and Andrew for this. Andrew says:
If you buy 18 tires, you can haul your six free ponies back in a 18wheeler big-rig.
Man now why can't this happen in NYC instead of Florida? I got rid of my car before moving from Pittsburgh to NYC, but I'd still go buy 3 unnecessary tires to get a mini pony. NEW APARTMENT ROOMMATE!

Another goat GIF from Brittany who bookends the weekend after Friday's awesome baby goat. Brittany says:
Baby goat and puppies in the same gif? Yes please!!
Now that's a pretty critical collection of awesome animals.
GIF below:


For the 1993 MLB season, Milk Bone (!) decided to create a limited 20-card set of collectible baseball cards known as Milk Bone Super Stars. These cards featured the biggest baseball stars of the day hanging out with their pet dog(s). Now there must have only been 20 dog owners in a league year that saw 1,104 players suit up (602 position players, 507 pitchers, number via my bud whygavs, some overlap, as at least 5 position players hit the mound once that year, Jose Canseco included), because somehow Tom Foley made it as a representative of the Pirates.
Foley had played with Montreal from 1986-92. I mean Milk Bone couldn't even get a picture of Foley in a Pirates jersey for the front of the card. Those cards were the worst. Mostly "Take Milk Bone's word that this dude is now on your team." It was the wild west before regular Internet and up-to-the-second Twitter updates about free agents.
And Milk Bone had to Photoshop out team names and logos. Check out the generic MLB hats. You could've picked this card up at a Giant Eagle and not know you had a local player until the season started.
That 1993 Pirates team was the first without a certain Barry Bonds since 1985. Bonds was a Pirate as long as Foley was an Expo. So yeah, star-power was lacking for a team that had nearly (heart-breakingly) made the World Series months prior. But they still had guys like Andy Van Slyke and Jay Bell on the roster. Foley ended up playing 86 games as a Pirate in 93. Here's a picture of Tim Wakefield in a Pirates uniform in 1992. Force him to adopt a dog and you have a way better card than Tom Foley, Milk Bone.
Annie is the true star of the card. Each card featured a picture of a family dog, and Foley's Collie/German Shepherd mix knows how to look cool eternally in pictures. The juxtaposition of Foley's shirt just adds to Annie's smooth coolness. The only bummer is they didn't have full-on stats for the dogs. Like "cars chased." Or "value over replacement pooch." Kninemetrics.
Go Buccos.
