No matter where the New York Mets finish in the NL East standings, their mascot will be No. 1 this season. Mr. Met, an iconic fellow with a giant baseball for a head who debuted 50 years ago, has been named America's top sports mascot by a marketing firm that surveyed fans. A story in Forbes magazine dishes on how the Marketing Arm's Davie-Brown Index determined that Mr. Met edged the Phillie Phanatic for the top spot, like he did in 2009 . (No, it's not the " Dave Brown Index ," as the New York Daily News originally reported, for I would have thrown out the results because of the mascots they omitted.) The top 10 list excludes Canadian mascots, which means it doesn't have Youppi! — the former Montreal Expos sidekick who now works for the NHL's Canadiens — and there are no college teams as in previous seasons. Here's who they do have: Mr. Met — New York Mets Phillie Phanatic — Philadelphia Phillies Benny the Bull — Chicago Bulls San Diego Chicken — Formerly of the San Diego Padres Wally the Green Monster — Boston Red Sox Racing Sausages — Milwaukee Brewers The Gorilla — Phoenix Suns Billy the Marlin — Florida Marlins Coyote — San Antonio Spurs 10 (tie). Racing Presidents — Washington Nationals 10 (tie). Rocky — Denver Nuggets As the headline asked: Where's Youppi!?
