@Endless Summer: Slowey and Laffey. Nice. Took me a second (Slowey) but then I got it (Laffey).

@ Rudy

No shit. There’s actually a term for that in the Razzball Glossary, go figure.

You guys should win the Oscar for “Best Pop Culture References in a Fantasy Baseball Blog” at next years “Academy Awards of Shit Nobody But Us Cares About.”

@Iowa Cubs

Sadly I jinxed my favorite comedian of all time.

Remember the 7 dirty words I posted in the RCL when p0rk said to get out any words you don’t want people to read before he deletes them?

Yeah that was me, dammitt. Thought about that as soon as I heard it this morning.

Favorite George Carlin joke?

“Tonights weather report, mostly dark, with shades of scattered sunlight in the morning.”

RIP

RCL League In Review, Vol 1. (there should probably be a comma there so its arguable instead of “. . . League League In Review . . .” but get off my back) posted in the Roster Rants and Reviews forum. Not a whole lot new for the league members but its a good way for everybody else to get a glimpse into the clusterEff that is the league. Damn you p0rk for not publishing the league pre-draft!

Anyways, check it out. I didn’t slave over a hot stove for nothin’!

@Zebo: I'd go with Slowey there.

I like the deal for you. But if the other guy applies any thought, this one’ll be declined mighty quick.

@p0rk burn: Customer: But I only like this one song.

Us: Sorry, you have to buy the whole album.

Customer: But this CD costs you about 18 cents to reproduce, and you charge me $15.99.

Us: Don’t like it? Why don’t you go find the music for free on a magical computer?

Us again: Like that’ll ever happen!

Us again: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

@Baron Von Vulturewins: I'm looking for partners for this business idea. We'll sell CDs and people will come to our store and pay for the music. How could it go wrong?

@Baron Von Vulturewins: Maybe the anagram business model is fatally flawed as a result of the internet. Much like the adult video stores of yore the dutiful anagramist has been rendered obsolete. see h t t p:// wordsmith(dotorg)/anagram/anagram.cgi?anagram=jay+bruce+believer&t=1000 for the full list. Don't feel bad, I felt really proud about Brew Cocas until I realized any monkey with a typing stick could do better. Damn you internet and your free boobs.

@p0rk burn: Oddly, my day job is brainstorming anagrams. We've yet to figure out how to make this business-model profitable. I thought Pro Bono Work was selling U2 albums in Africa. Boom-cha! @IowaCubs: Also, don't forget I get to write a whole post when I win the RCL. That's right, I said it. Crackle and Pop, meet Snap. @Grey: Time well spent, friend. Time well spent. p.s. The "Dr. James Andrews Manages His Fantasy Team" could be a recurring feature. Or maybe a one-act play.

@Grey: Well thats 3 out of the 11096 possible anagrams. First person to get the rest of them wins.

@IowaCubs: Agreed, BVV is an asset. @Baron Von Vulturewins: Jiver Barbecuely. @p0rk burn: Wasted? I just spent 35 minutes to come up with Jiver Barbecuely. That's wasted?

I wonder what the economic impact of Razzball.com is approaching. Just think of the man-hours spent (wasted?) brainstorming anagrams for player names instead of what we’re actually supposed to be doing. Unfortunately, I’m only missing out on a thrilling season of practice sets unlike the majority that is getting paid by somebody to do this.

That makes it pro bono work I think.

@IowaCubs: Ah, that’s sweet. But I am strictly a hobbyist — like one of those Victorian-era entomologists in a pith-helmet who’d self-finance a trip to the Amazon, discover a new variety of beetle, name it after his beloved childhood nanny, then get murdered by locals after he strays into their village looking for a needle-and-thread to repair a wee tear in his knee-breeches.

Also: You know what you start when you say “Screw O-Cab?”

Bocce Wars.

And: Jay Bruce Believer?

Juicy Rebel Beaver.*

@Baron Von Vulturewins: @Grey: The next time you need a blog reliever (or b'reliever if you will) if you're on vacation or something (or if your internet is down and you have to blog from an Apple store) my vote is for BVV to get the nod. He's been warming up in the bullpen for far too long. Put him in coach! re: Bruce: So this would make Bruce a buy? Eh... all those Bruce K's make that bottle of GreeneBrau taste better than average. (I feel a glossary definition coming on... hmm... any takers??). GreeneBrau...
