Rat Bastards

So after our Friday punk outing to see The Evens, I wound up deciding not to go stand in line in person @ Fenway when I realized the sizable financial contribution a 'Sox Pax' (TM) would take. While most of Sat / Sun had me in the Mr. Mom role back in glorious Monson MA, I decided to log into the redsox.com site a couple of times to just check what the order process / specific Pax prices were. The above image (courtesey of DirtDogs) was as far as I got. Bottom line: if you are looking for accessible, affordable and family entertainment - go minor league.

The answer to this is simple. The Can Am League. There are 4 teams within striking distance in that league. The Nashua Pride, The North Shore Spirit, The Brocton Rox and The Worcester Tornadoes. The other teams aren't too far away, either. I propose this: Major League Baseball is for punks, let's get in on some local ball. Wouldn't it be more fun to trash talk about baseball if we didn't all root for the same team? Let's pick teams, cheer for them, trash talk each other about our teams, and fuggedabout MLB and their extortive prices. Hell, MF DÜ Wouldn't be _that_ far from New Haven for The County Cutters, and tommy would easily be convinced to be a Quebec Capitales fan... Anyone in?

I love it!

There's a new travelling team in the League... The Grays. BoH clearly gets them.

The Grays played the '05 season. I think they have an office in Elmira, NY, somewhere upstate, at least. Kickass logo: I call North Shore Spirit.

I could go Tornadoes, Rox or Pride... Leaning toward Tornadoes, as I'm closest to them (out of all of us) and Rich Gedman is the manager.

Bonne idée. Vos équipes sont pour la merde.

I'd love the Greys if I can't have the Capitales.

Ladewtang Clan, stop moaning about baseball, convert to a soccer hooligan like me, and (most importantly) answer my e-mail already. I've tried every address I have for you, and still no dice, so if you didn't get it, mail me at: pam [dot] ginzler [at] hotmail [dot] com Y'dig? And if you did get it but are ignoring me, well then...

I'll take the Atlantic City Surf. Only because their mascot, Surf, kind of looks like Alf in a belly shirt.

G Lib pulls out the Garden State. Fantastic.

Don't be such a whine ass pussy. If you wanted to go see a Red Sox game so badly, you wouldn't have procreated. But since you still want to be a fan, I'll see you at Jackals games. The rest of you are also a bunch of pussies for having such pussyish mascots. Grrrrr

Oh, and I how about these pair?

of Jackals! The softer side of Jackals.

If you're going to drop pussy ass nashuas on the board, maybe you should think about supporting the Pride instead.

Fuck you Jason.

Let's not be dropping rosettas neither, fuckbag.
Posted by MF DU on 2006-12-12 12:14:06 +0000
no no no Pam - I could never ignore you - having gmail / comcast POP3 trouble (I can see at work that ppl are e-mailing me, can view subject lines, but cant get in and send anything) anyhoo - expect an e-mail from me within the hour. I love the image, btw - my sister used to have this as an animated .gif...

Fuckbags, Pussies, Fucktards, and Assholes Oh My! Lets not forget right wingers wielding obscene finger gestures. Ahhh I love the smell of pleasantries in the morning...

Is the Pride or the Rox where Oil Can Boyd was last seen?
Posted by tendiamonds on 2006-12-12 13:15:34 +0000
Lorber: You down with OCB?
Posted by G lib on 2006-12-12 13:20:13 +0000

OK, so lame mascot, but his name is Tripper. Go Cutters!

I am happy to see Sababas onboard. And I am happy to get into the spirit of this thread: fucking bitch fuck ass!

Dick motherfuckin' BALLS!

I'm going to have to root for the Rox, as Ryan Kane (ABRHS class of '92) is their coach... Wait, Ryan's not really a friend of mine, and his dad ruined baseball for me. Rox Suck!
Posted by tendiamonds on 2006-12-13 08:53:00 +0000
I have an advantage there, as _my_ dad ruined baseball for me, which made it easier for me to get over it... 15 years later.
