Umps: Slackers
Quite a war of words erupted between the two captains in the days leading to this much-anticipated game between two fired up teams.
Eagles captain and gyroball pitcher Tom Manning was in a confident mood, practically guaranteeing his team’s victory.
“We’re known as the team with all the kids, and that may give some of our opponents false hope,” said Manning, “But I have faith in our players because we all believe in our system.”
When reached for comment, Stars’ captain Pat Hillman, AKA Abu Mitchell Al-Zarqawi, all but issued a fatwa. “The blood of my enemies,” began an agitated Hillman, “shall flow like a river through the heart of the thirsty ballfield. Once quenched, the sand will shoot trees up to the heavens. And from these trees, we shall fashion wooden bats with which to score a whole lotta runs.”
“He’s all talk,” retorted Manning. “I’ll tell you what I’m going to do. I’ll head over to Farah Women’s Hospital right before game time and pick up their nine newest babies. Me and nine newborns, and we’ll pound the Stars.”
“Wait a minute,” shot back an incredulous Hillman. “There’s a women’s hospital in Jordan? Is that even legal?”
The Eagles and the Stars. You can’t make this stuff up.
(Actually, I just did make it up. All of it. But ignore the Fear Factor System at your own peril.)
