Results of Who Would Win Between a Tiger and Giant
October 24, 2012
Earlier today in these pages, we utilized the great American tradition of submitting your opinion electronically to the void (a.k.a. polling) as a means of determining with zero shadows of doubts who would win in various Mortal Kombat-style battles between various sorts of tigers and other, various sorts of giants — i.e. the mascots of the team competing in the World Series that’s about to begin.
The polls are closed and the shadows of doubt dissolved by the bright light of Mass Opinion. Regard the answers below, brothers and sister!
Tiger Mom vs. Giant Rabbit
Winner: Tiger
Bengal Tiger vs. The Cerne Abbas Giant
Winner: Tiger
Tigerlily by Natalie Merchant vs. Giant Disembodied Eye
Winner: Giant
Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
I think the series would have gone differently if you threw Cerne Abbas Giant against Verlander.
The visual evidence certainly suggests that the Cerne Abbas Giant has excellent stuff. Excellent, giant stuff.
