Baloo vs Yogi Bear

>
For a Friday post I thought we could have some fun by pitting two famous bears against each other. Fighting in today's battle is Baloo from TaleSpin and Yogi Bear from The Yogi Bear Show.


BALOO



PROS

* Can fly a plane without thumbs

* He's a bear and has a job as a pilot

* Once donated his entire paycheck to the starving munchkins of The Wizard of Oz

* Has a sidekick

* Can easily fight off air pirates

* He knows who killed JFK

CONS

* People have heard rumors about what goes on in the plane with Kit

* Crashes a lot

* Got expelled from school for downloading porn in the library

* Doesn't wear pants (which doesn't help the rumors)

* Thinks Paris Hilton is a good person

* Doesn't know how to read




YOGI BEAR




PROS

* Has a knack for stealing picnic baskets

* Has a sidekick

* Saved a litter of kittens from a burning hospital

* Snappy dresser

* Invented meat loaf

* Is tight with Yogi Berra

CONS

* Hangs out with a young bear, kinda creepy

* Goes #2 in the geyser holes in the park

* Gave the ranger an STD

* Doesn't have a steady job

* Doesn't pay child support to Kanga from Winnie the Pooh

* Has a severe gambling problem

My vote is for Baloo. I loved TaleSpin. Anybody play the NES game? Who do you think is the better bear?

I watched Talespin all the time, but I never could figure out if Baloo was actually the bear from the jungle book.... They're totally unrelated, right?

Baloo all the way. Great as a pilot, great as a jungle bear. Plus I still enjoy randomly annoying people by singing the tailspin theme.

I don't know this Baloo, but his support for the Munchkins wins my vote!

You brought way to many valid points to the table. I vote for a draw, but edge to Yogi due to his Hanna B. political connection.
