Bears, if you can't take a little good natured ribbing from time to time, Mullen may just be less inclined to let you have recruits, just to keep things interesting. You know how when a couple of friends are engaging in a little rough housing and everybody's laughing, and then the runt bear wants to bow up a little, and then there's this sorta uncomfortable moment where the stronger of the two realizes the runt bear wants a little piece of him, so the stronger has to drop a little DDT on his runty ***? And then there's red faces and runty bear ends up disheveled and mad and has to come to grips with his runty ***?
Don't go there, runty bears.
