Can the Falcon use techniques like shitting on the bear, bear eating shit and dying?

Also, can the falcon equip it's self with M-80s for bombing runs on the bear?

Also, bears can juggle and ride bicycles. I'm not sure if that is a pro or con.

Bring on the jet!

Can bears contract and die from bird flu?

I don't know where you pulled that Falcon Force G picture but I'm not ashamed to admit I spent a good portion of my use watching that silly-ass anime show. FYI, from left to right, they're goose, hawk, owl.

@ illegal immigrant

Since you watched, maybe you know, why if they are Falcon Force are they named after other birds? And why do they have arrows pointing to their junk?

I don't really care, I just have nothing better to do at work than add stupid comments.

perhaps it was too easy--

There is one other thing that is (or was) a Falcon and is decidedly a Con.

The bear is kind of waltzing through these preliminary rounds, but I have a feeling it will get its ass handed to it in the final round and leave us all wondering how the hell it got there in the first place.

@futuremrs

You mean like how they had their Superbowl run a year ago?

Falcon

Pro: Ability to grasp a child trapped down a well firmly in its talons and fly the child to safety.

futuremrsrickankiel said...

Yes, that was the joke...

Joep Smeets said...

does the video that illustrates one of the pros of the falcon suggest that one of its main strengths is that it is easily confused with an eagle?

I'm going for the Bear, and i'm looking forward to the next match-ups.

Go Mordecai!

Easy vote after watching Grizzly Man.

klitzman said...

Talk about closing speed. I think I'm going to vote for the falcon just because of that takedown on the deer.

Pemulis said...

Who is driving? Oh my god! Bear is driving car?! How can this be?!

dick_gozinia said...

Death from Above you tiny ass deer!

Man Bear Pig said...

@ pemulis
+ 37 (37?!) for Clerks cartoon reference.

My original vote was falcon, but then I remembered my golden rule for voting ... Simpsons references destroy all.

"Gee Homey, I don't think it's nice to maul Ranger Ned."
"YOU WANT SOME OF THIS?!?!"

Sorry gay mafia, but you should probably use that video for the Eagle-Jet matchup since the title of the film is Falconry with EAGLES

/gets ass beat by gay mafia
