    Breaking News the unicycle-riding, bowl-flipping acrobat is retiring from halftime scene

    http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2014/...etiring-injury

    The Red Panda Acrobat -- real name, Rong Niu -- had apparently dealt with injuries recently -- she missed all of last season. This is a travesty. Let's praise her:
    "The pelican is fearsome. Take a raven, for example: it's omnivorous. It eats bugs, and seeds, and fruit, and carrion. Compared to the well-rounded citizen that is the raven, the pelican is the serial killer of birds." - Barry Petchesky, Deadspin

    She was one of the best halftime acts.

    Trombone Shorty has pretty hot sets when he plays, too. Oh, and the Chicago bucket drumline. Those are all my favorite acts.

    I heard it's because of our training staff.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    Having never seen this act, this comment sent me down a deep dark path on YouTube of looking up videos. At my lowest point I watched a weird Russian version of quick change woman.

    I will never get those 30 minutes back.
