OTTOTD 12/14/09: With the first pick in the 2010 NFL draft the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select...

Rhode Island State Police said they’ve arrested 14 people for prostitution-related crimes since a new law went into effect that banned indoor prostitution, including a man who plays the New England Patriots’ mascot.  State police said Friday that since last month, they have arrested eight men, five women and one 17-year-old girl for prostitution or for procurement of sexual conduct for a fee.

Law enforcement sources told NBC 10 one of the johns who tried to pay for sex with a prostitute was 47-year-old Robert Sormanti of Warwick. He is one of several people who plays the Pat the Patriot mascot. “The Pat Patriot mascot costume is worn by multiple people, each of whom are held responsible and accountable for their actions. The individual in question has been suspended. The mascot responsibilities will continue to be fulfilled by others,“ said a statement from the team.

These are the first arrests since the governor signed a new law that closed a loophole that made indoor prostitution legal. Eight men and six women were arrested.

Yup

Also it’s nice to see the Bears losses pile up so our other 2nd round pick (from Gaines Adams trade) keeps getting better.

Freeman made me look like a genius

watched the game with the in-laws yesterday, who are Bills fans, and they asked me about Freeman. I told them great arm strength and pretty accurate and can run, but doesn’t see the whole field well and will throw some picks (nothing you haven’t heard a 100 times before). About ten seconds later was the first offensive play of the game, and my father in law goes, well he is accurate it would have gone right into his receivers hands had he seen the LB who didn’t move.

That pass to Clark was horrible-

The one where Revis picked it off- Should have thrown it somewhere else.

I would guess it has something to do with being in the center of the Iroquois nation

Not really sure, but I would think wikipedia would. Give it a shot, tiger.

I did.

Couldn’t really find anything besides the school color being orange. Gonna look a little more.

by SRQman on Dec 14, 2009 1:37 PM EST up reply actions  

Looking like that is the reason.

They are the Orange because their color is orange.

wikianswers

The name comes from the official school color-orange.

The teams used to be called the orangemen, but it was changed to the orange to be gender neutral.

Syracuse’s mascot is Otto the Orange.

Improve Answer Discuss the question “Why are Syracuse’s sports teams called the orange?”

Why is Cleveland the Browns?

Or Harvard the Crimson? Why is Stanford Cardinal?

by rglass44 on Dec 14, 2009 1:56 PM EST up reply actions  

Browns
In 1945, Arthur McBride brought the All-America Football Conference (AAFC) team to Cleveland. He ran a newspaper contest to name the team and offered the winner a $1,000 war bond. Many entries suggested the name “Browns” after Head Coach Paul Brown, but Coach Brown felt it wasn’t “proper” to name the team after himself. Instead, the winning suggestion was the Panthers. However, there was a semi-pro team called the Cleveland Panthers in the ’20s, and the owner still had the rights to the name. So, Coach Brown reluctantly agreed to name the team the Browns

Used to be Orangemen

Which was changed to Orange in the mid-90’s when the NCAA made every team with a derrogatory name referencing Native Americans change their name

As an S-Jax fantasy owner, I can attest that this is not true

17 carries for 50 yards (approx) is what you get when you have a horrible QB who can’t throw the ball anywhere. S-Jax will not give this team a win alone. He is a monster, but has zero help. I can;t see them winning a game.

Avery, Amendola and Brandon Gibson

I know, they don’t strike fear in anyone’s hearts. Thr Rams have Houston at home, @ Zona and home vs 49ers. Barring one of those three teams throwing up on themselves, the Rams go 1-15 and beat us to the first pick.
