Former Child Star Lands Gig as University Mascot
The Daily Probe ^ | August 31, 2005 | Mark Schmidt

URANT, Okla. (DPI) — The Southeastern Oklahoma State Savages have hired The Wonder Years actor Fred Savage following an NCAA ruling outlawing mascots deemed offensive to Native Americans. "Our school nickname has always been a tribute to the Savages of Hollywood, never a derogatory reference to any tribal group," said SOSU's President John Libby. Fred Savage's smiling visage has been added to the university's football helmets. However, the Lady Savages swim team has objected to the mascot's presence in the girl's locker room. In related news, the NCAA's own mascot, Overpaid White Male Bureaucrat, now has a sidekick: Politically Overcorrect Blowhard.

Michael Savage would be most unacceptable.

Kramer: Hey. Oh, did I frighten you? I'm not crazy. I mean, I may look
weird, but I'm just like you, I'm just a regular guy just trying to make it in
this business. You know I really like your work, the, uh...

Fred Savage: Thank you.

Kramer: Yeah, I can't remember the name of it.

Fred: Thanks.

Kramer: Yeah, my mind's a blank, I'm sorta nervous, you know, uh...

Fred: That's ok. Relax, relax.

Kramer: Ok, but I got this...

Kramer lifts his leg and places his foot on a low table and the table collapses.

Kramer: Stupid table. You know, I'm not normally like this, usually I'm very cool and charming, I don't mean to bother you or anything but I think it's fate
that you happened to be here at the same time as me.

Fred (a little frightened and backing away towards the door): Yeah, its fate, you know, can't avoid your fate.

Kramer: I got this treatment I think you'll be great in.

Fred: Yeah.

Kramer: So I'd like to give it to you.

Fred: Yeah, thank you, thanks a lot. Bye!

Kramer (bumping into a lamp): Alright, excuse me. Uh wait, wait.

But can somebody post a present-day pic of Winnie Cooper? I hear she's a math wiz, and very hot to boot.
