Welcome to another branch of <italics>Did You See That?</italics>, the rootsy gallery that's getting into the holiday spirits just like this fantastic facsimile of the Cardinal's beloved mascot that sprouted at a tailgate party at Stanford Stadium in Palo Alto, CA.

Sasquatch was spotted at the Grey Cup game in Regina, Saskatchewan where the hometown Roughriders won the CFL championship by running roughshod over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, 45-23.

A paper bag just won't do: Deep camouflage is the order of the day at Ryan Field in Evanston,Ill., when your team is being trimmed, 30-6, by Michigan State en route to its sixth straight loss.

Guard Shaun Livingston of the Nets performs a dramatic recreation of his team's 4-11 start to the season during a tilt against the Detroit Pistons at the Barclays Center in New York City.

Hardy souls were in the swimwear at Green Bay's frosty Lambeau Field where the visiting Vikings and hometown Packers were fit to be tied, 26-26.

Still the Manny: After two successive defeats, Pacquaio did not come out on the shorts end of his welterweight bout vs. Brandon Rios in Macau, convincingly winning a unanimous decision in 12 rounds.

Actually, Eli Manning and the Giants are real...dead in the water for the season after their 24-21 loss to Tony Romo and the hated Cowboys.

With the Vancouver Canucks crawling along on a 3-4-3 streak, fiery coach John Tortorella is again turning into a human Mount Vesuvius. Among his recent pyrotechnics, Torts declared that his team "sucks" and boiled over at Jannik Hansen's deficiencies.

Staying properly hydrated is essential to strong performance in sports. Here we have Richard Dornbush of the U.S. and Spain's Javier Fernandez (on the ice) demonstrating the proper technique at a gala exhibition in Moscow.

Outside Beaver Stadium there once stood a statue of long-time Penn State football coach Joe Paterno. Now there is an homage to <italics>The Wrong Trousers</italics>.

Oh, the humanity. It's dispiriting indeed to root for a team that had big aspirations only to sink to 2-9 with a loss to lowly Jacksonville Jaguars that moved its star wide receiver to declare, "We suck. As an offense. That's pretty much it."
