Almost fell off my chair laughing at this one, Derek…too freaking hilarious!

I wonder if we could invite Michael Barrett and Carlos Zambrano back for a steel cage rematch as well?!

Maybe if the M’s were involved with more brawls, like the Rays, they would improve. They just need to start a needless rivalry with the best team in their division, fight them twice a year, and within a couple years they will be in first, just like the Rays. Ya, it could work. By the DMZ, SonicsCentral gave you some props on this post, one of the best of the year.

Given the recent basebrawls like the Red Sox vs. Tampa Rays fight, you could say that baseball is becoming more like pro wrestling. Even Manny Ramirez and Kevin Youklis were fighting each other in the Sox dugout for some reason.

Thanks, after a crappy day (and week and year for that matter) at work, this hilarious article is just what I needed to feel better.

I lost it at Lincoln getting clotheslined by the batboy.

My own version of this fantasy involves the crowd throwing Wii, DS and Gamecubes onto the field.

Except for this: I hope that DMZ blog post is going into the All Time Best archives.

This is about the funniest thing I’ve read in a while, supported by appropriately snarky comments. Thanks.

“Vidro’s also grabbing a bat and running towards Yamauchi trying to make peace.”

“Well Jose’s a professional hitter, Dave, no question about it, so he should be able to take advantage of the old man here.”

“Jose’s still running towards the mound…Aaaand he’s about a third of the way there…still going…Mr. Yamauchi sees him and is dropping into what I can only describe as a crane stance from the movie the Karate Kid…”

“No question about it Dave, that’s the Karate Kid stance all the way.”

“Jose’s about halfway to the mound now and clearly flagging…Mr. Yamauchi is running towards towards him and … MY OH MY, DID YOU JUST SEE THAT?? DOWN GOES VIDRO! DOWN GOES VIDRO! DOWN GOES VIDRO! I CAN’T BELIEVE WHAT I JUST SAW! DOWN GOES VIDRO!”
