Youppi! is alive and well/Youppi! est vivant et bon

ESPN.com: Page 2 - Youppi! is alive and well:

"Now, six figures sounds like a lot for a clumsy guy with big feet and orange fur, but that's less than the Seattle Mariners recently paid for Richie Sexson -- and Youppi! is nearly as tall.

Well, thank goodness others are thinking about him too.
