    Does this mean they get whole new jerseys with a new name like the toronto dragons? I know it sounds corny its just an example, or does this mean their just getting a new person inside the costume?

    Whoa...their mascot is named "The Raptor"? They could've been a little more creative than that.

    Guys I think thats the same "spoof" site that lied about Tracy McGrady's goal of sleeping with 20,000 women in his lifetime. I don't think this information is true, considering its not from a Toronto source, also if you read the article you'd know that the tone is all a joke.

    Even if this was for real, they would fire the dude IN The suit..not the actual suit itself..

    How can you fire a suit? I thought you just tossed it away... I never knew it was hired either. LOL this is all fake IMO.

    I'm hoping the people taking this seriously didn't actually read the article. If you didn't read it though I suggest you do. There's some pretty funny stuff in there.

    Seeing how the Raptors are in need of size, they say he's going to be replaced by the "Velocille O'Neal, a 7'1" carnivore, and Yaosaurus, a 7'6" longneck from the Cretaceous period". haha

    Nah, I think they will makin the Raptor suit longer and get some big guy to were it. That's what their saying. They didn't fire the Raptor itself, that would be stupid.

    It's either they didn't read the article or just didn't get the joke.
