Filling out brackets is fun for a couple of days.
Buzzer beaters to preserve your team from the jaws of defeat are exciting.
But the month of March belongs to Red Panda.
Seemingly it always has, and seemingly it always will.
Red Panda first came onto the scene on Thanksgiving Day in 1993.
So just for the sake of argument, let’s say her career started in 1994.
The same year that Jason Kidd entered the NBA.
The same year that Marshall Faulk entered the NFL.
Martin Brodeur was the Rookie of the Year in the NHL that year.
We were still a couple seasons away from Derek Jeter making his MLB debut.
Tom Brady was in high school.
LeBron James was maybe in middle school.
Sidney Crosby was just a little boy who couldn’t even tie his own skates yet.
Sure, she’s had some ups and downs in her career.
What legend hasn’t?
The only other athlete who I think could potentially rival Red Panda’s longevity would be Jaromir Jagr.
Something tells me these two are trying to see who can outlast the other.
Watching each other’s move like a hawk, just waiting for the other to blink.
