    Maybe I need to program a shortcut code for QKS images. I’m not sure when I’ll have time, but it would amuse me.

    I’m thinking a button before “Close Tags” called “QKS” that dumps an appropriately sized one into your comment.

    Good idea? Stupid idea? Needs tweaking?

    So, seriously, how could they not have noticed that Adam West was a flaming homosexual?

      I blame their advanced theories of penology.

    I want to see Duchscherer start doing that madcap laugh every time he gets a swinging strike.

      One thing I can report about last night: Duke sure didn’t give up a swinging strike.

      That would be…mind-blowingly awesome.

        I dunno, I think it’s important for Duke to *avoid* mental illness this year.

        • monkeyball Apr 2,2010 6:13 pm || Up

          That’s not mental illness — that’s showmanship!

            As a Beane-counting saberist, I think it would be worth it.

              I always loved that book about the rabbit who goes on the DL -= Manship Down.

                I loved the movie where the baseball player is trapped on the capsized boat – The Podsednik Adventure.

                  Or the one about the ballplayer who saves the world from annihilation: A Swiftly Tilting Plantier

                  I liked Rajai, Run last year and I’m looking forward to Rajai Redux (although I’d prefer not to see Rajai is Rich).

                  I thought those were about Mr. Maranville.

                  Did you read the one about Michael Young’s struggle with hypothyroidism? Ranger with a Strange Gland.

                  By which I mean, awesome.

            It might be equally awesome if he wore the face paint.

              Well, but then Geren gets to use the Springboard when removing him from the game.

                maybe we can get BB to take on an Irish brogue for the day, play the chief.

    I hope I may safely presume that we all consider America’s #1 greatest hero to be Buckaroo Banzai.

    Those prisoners on the team opposing the Joker’s team are the weakest slo-pitch softball hitters I’ve ever seen.

    And the writer who coined “the Joker sprung himself” gag deserved a Nobel.

        I need to come up with something clever to say, but so far all I can come up with is “sometimes I like to stare down at my pot belly as I brew a kettle of tea. How do I like my tea? Black.”

          It’s like the episode of The Office where Michael Scott says of Andy Bernard, “How can someone have so little self-awareness?”

      No baseball and no ass make LB something something.

        I think it makes me own a sign shop in Florida, though I haven’t cross-checked my math yet.

          I think you forgot to carry a one somewhere. No baseball AND ass make LB own a sign shop in Florida. Without the ass, I think you’re in Texas surviving BBQ to orphans but my math may be off a little.

    I’d like you FKers to bring it. Beating up on ** types is tiresome.

      Especially considering FKers are running half of it.
