AIM Poll #2: Turtles VS. A-Team

Poll for the week of August 4 – August 11, 2002

The Question:

On a battledome racetrack, who would win? The Turtle Van from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or the souped-up A-Team van?

The Response Starters:

1. Turtle Power! The Turtle Van would win because…
2. With Mr. T at the wheel, the a-team van would crush the turtle van because…

THE WINNER:

Mullins: With Mr. T at the wheel, the a-team van would crush the turtle van because the ninja turtles were just cartoons and im pretty sure if you lack the ability to self-animate, than you most likely will have the inability to produce a winning time. It’s all in the technicalities. However if we decide to disregard this fact as valid and think about each opponent on the same level of existance, we will have to agree that Mr. T’s gold may interfere with his way with the ladies, driving abilities and neck movement; as well as weigh down the automobile. In addition to the exploration of the lack of power that the T-Van would have, we can also agree that with the massive gadgetry Infused in the heart and soul of the Turtle Van it could outwit and hazards that would confront them on the way to the finish line….

HONORABLE MENTION:

Marc Sawaya: Mike D! You’re not there, but I’m just saying hello from Utah anyway. I hope everything rocks on your side of the country, rest assured I’m keeping things in control over here. The West has almost succumbed to my relentless dictatorship campaign. In fact, soon everyone out here will be driving about in TMNT vans, while the east coast stays to their stubborn A-Team ways.

Shaun McQuaid: Turtle Power! The Turtle Van would win because Donatello is representative of the daring engineer who lairs deep within all WPI students. The A-Team, while cool, isn’t known for their engineering prowess. Donatello could throw a few tricky upgrades into that van, and smoke the team.

AND THE REST….In no particular order

Alex: Turtle Power! The Turtle Van would win because I mean really, do you think the A-Team van could withstand a battering of pizzas from the Turtle Van’s pizza cannon? I don’t think so.

Katie: With Mr. T at the wheel, the a-team van would crush the turtle van because the A-Team always had a much cooler lunch box back in the day. wait a second, I think the turtles came after my family stopped taking packed lunches… there may be a flaw in my argument, but I stand by it nontheless.

Vinayak: Turtle Power! The Turtle Van would win because (insert reason)it’s a cartoon, u can do what u want even ride on the cieling.

Ben: I pity the fool who messes with the A-Team van. That thing has driven through everything, over everthing. Whats the turtle van gonna do? Throw pizzas. Plus the A-Team van has enough room for Mr. T to get his thang on later.

Sarto: Turtle Power! The Turtle Van would win because you just know Michelangelo’s in the back smokin’ a doobie.

Theresa: Turtle Power! The Turtle Van would win because the turtle had so much cooler of a theme song, but Mr. T had all the gold to weigh down his car
