How about a bobblehead of Cleon Jones plowing a white girl in a parking lot? That'd be mint.

Cliff Floyd heard in my car, doing fantasy baseball analysis on XM's fantasy sports channel.

I am going to bump this periodically in an attempt to get us at least two more owners, we're at 8 currently but I think 10 is better and 12 better still. Join now, beat the March rush!

Joshua R. Stinson Born: March 14, 1988 in Shreveport, Louisiana. (He'll be 23 in 2011.) I spent a few days in Shreveport for work two years ago. In July. Holy hell, I've never been somewhere hotter and duller than that.

Comes back in the dog days of August and runs the fucking table. 15 starts, 11-2 record, 2.5-ish ERA and pitches a complete game shutout to clinch a playoff spot for the Metsies.

OK, well, if we're going to push things out till 9:30 then I can do any weeknight. Doesn't have to be a Wednesday so we can accommodate for smg58 that way. I have changed the draft to Tuesday 3/22 at 9:30 PM. Again, if that borks someone please let me know ASAP. At some point I will lose flexibility on draft scheduling. (Also 3/24 is out as it is Fboy's birthday, and the week of 3/26-4/1 I am on vacation.)

8:30 is tricky for me as I'm generally helping Fgirl get bedded down between 8:30 and 9. I can push it out to 9:15 or 9:30 but in that case we'll be up late (think 11ish). Is that OK with everyone?

.315 BA, 15 HRs, 60 RBIs, 110 runs, 45 SB, plays silly-good defense and earns himself a big fat contract.

Give Rodney credit too, this was his breakthrough role and he zings the one liners throughout.

OK. League is set up and all of last year's owners should have received an email invite. All the same specs as we used last year. Live draft scheduled for Wednesday, March 23rd at 7:15 PM. Any conflicts, please let me know ASAP so I can adjust the date/time.

Pitchers and catchers official reporting date at Port St Lucie is Wednesday. I am so ready.

Do you expect me to pitch competently? No, Mr. Perez. I expect you to DIE.

I'm happy to start a league up like last year. Here to check interest levels and get any dates in advance that you don't want a live draft.

I met Bea Arthur once. Couldn't have been nicer. We were using adjacent urinals.

Is it too immodest to think that my influence as a CPF member these last few years has led to a marked increase in the percentage of threads that reference both Bea Arthur AND pornography?

Steve Phillips is now doing a morning show on Chris Russo's satellite radio channel, Mad Dog radio. He's already on his second cohost, and no, it's not this "beauty" Opie and Anthony were discussing it this morning.... apparently he's real surly around the XM offices and as they described it, has the permanent look on his face of being "the guy who knows that everyone else knows." Also described as being in "radio hell." Good stuff.

I don't expect him to throw any one hit shutouts in San Diego, that's for sure. Edgy DC + cut/paste = FAIL

An inauspicious, mostly forgettable September debut. Off the field, Lutz is the sympathetic central figure in a minor scandal when $200 worth of Lutz's lottery tickets for that week's $400 million jackpot mysteriously disappear from his locker. The security tapes, leaked to the NY Post by Mets security, show that Fred Wilpon, the tabloids' only suspect (Locker Shocker! Lutz Looted! Wilpon Deluded! Who Dood It? Naked City: Hu is Hung! No-Hand No-Han: Santana to undergo season ending hand surgery!) was the last person in the locker room just before Lutz's lottery tickets went missing, The security tapes are otherwise inconclusive. To deflect any further suspicion, Wilpon offers a $10,000.00 reward to the person with information leading to the return of Lutz's missing tickets. The scandal quietly fades away after the lottery commission confirms that there were no winners for that week's drawing, One week later, Fred Wilpon discovers the missing tickets stuck to the top of Lutz's locker and claims the reward money from partner Saul Katz. This was my favorite episode of "Three's Company" ever.
