Bobble of the Day “The Coyote”

Bobble of the Day

Mascot: The Coyote 

Team: San Antonio Spurs

Year: 2008

Manufacturer: Unknown

The Coyote man! What’s better than your team mascot being a coyote? Spurs fans have been used to the Coyote running game on and off the court at charity events and what not. Diehard fans appreciate what the Coyote does each game to get the fans riled up and more importantly, the Coyote himself has been there for all the championships the Spurs have won in recent years. 

The first thing that stands out is the stance the Coyote is portraying. He’s just standing on the base with his finger in the air like a boss! He’s rocking the #2 jersey and the bright green eyes is an attractive feature. The super bright red tongue might be a little much but no one can complain. 

 

 

Sniper Rating: I wish the base was a different color because it clashes to close to the brown fur on his legs. His name is raised on the front of the base but it’s difficult to read. The font is off to me for some reason. Maybe they shouldn’t have made the letters all caps?

Overall, you can’t go wrong with this bobble in your collection and especially if your a diehard Spurs fan. The coyote has been through thick and thin with this team as they have battled for the title pretty much every season. The box is fully colored and has a glossy feel to it. The bright colors stand out and the photos of the Coyote are critical. The Spurs famous mascot scores a respectable 7.5 rating. 

Motivational Thursday

Learn to say “no” without explaining yourself. 

No is one of the most powerful words ever invented….Yet, hardly anyone uses it. When you don’t want to do something or hangout with someone, a simple “no” is perfectly acceptable. It’s also powerful. It shows, you do not need to explain yourself and you will NOT be persuaded to go against what you truly want to do…Whether people like that answer or not, they will respect it and respect YOU for your straight forwardness. And remember…this is your life. You call the shots and only YOU decide if something has a place in your life. 

Bobble of the Day “Stephen Curry”

Bobble of the Day

Player: Stephen Curry

Team: Golden State Warriors

Year: 2016

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

Ever since the Warriors got Steph and they started to shatter records, there’s been a huge overkill of Curry bobbles. When they won the title, FOCO produced a shit ton of them and many other exclusives were made. You know my opinion regarding overkilled bobbles, but I truly feel this one is warranted. 73 wins in one single NBA season? That’s a gigantic accomplishment and that’s why a 73 win season bobble was needed. 

This is a pretty basic pose bobble as Steph is standing on a colorful square base which reads, “73 Gold Standard”. The bright yellow and royal blue colors really pop and Steph’s name is of raised letters on the front in yellow. The shorts to me look a tad bit short and reminds me of the John Stockton days. The t-shirt that reads, “73 Wins-The Gold Standard” is fresh as hell. 

 

 

Sniper Rating: I dig the fact that Steph’s holding the ball as it’s a classic look for a bobblehead of this caliber. No complaints with the face or hair as it looks just like him. Several players were made in this series which include, Klay, Green, and Igudola if I’m not mistaken. I only purchased a case of Curry’s because they will only go up in value. Without a doubt Chef Curry and the 73 Wins bobble scores a solid 8.0 rating. 

Motivational Wednesday

No matter how good your heart is, eventually you have to start treating people the way they treat you. 

Listen, I know a lot of times I advise everyone that when someone treats you like shit, and doesn’t give you the time of day, to back off and don’t ever speak to them again. But sometimes that’s hard. Sometimes there are situations in which you HAVE  to see these people on a regular basis. When this type of shit happens, and you have experienced a certain individual that’s treats you like crap and embarrasses you in front of others, you have no other options than to treat them the same way. You have to defend yourself. Why is it fair they can do it to you, but you can’t do it to them? Doesn’t make sense. Now I wouldn’t go ahead and risk your job or career but if they give you shit, feel free to give it back. Sooner or later the entire company will start to hate this person and you’ll be in the clear. DON’T be a human punching BAG. Give it right back to that fucker.
