PostcardsFromTheWedge: Apparently we can no longer get fans to attend Indians games by playing baseball, because we are the Indians. |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: So we need to finalize a 2007 Promotional Schedule. What can we hand out to people as they walk through the gates? |
 |
Pronky_Kong: Bobbleheads, and lots of them! |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: Right, that's what I was thinking, but we gave away all the good bobbleheads of our team's stars last year. |
 |
Pronky_Kong: Then we should start giving out progressively stupider bobbleheads. Like Partial Nudity Rachel Phelps, or Herb Score's Right Eyeball. |
 |
NeedsABathia: or a bobbled head of me disco dancing with an afro

for some reason |
 |
Pronky_Kong: Weren't you born in 1980? |
 |
biscuits_and_grady: how about a weekend celebrating the chubbier members of Grady's Ladies with "Sizemore's Size Whores" |
 |
biscuits_and_grady: or a weekend full of memorabilia celebrating the fact that I am amazing
we can give these out every game until j. michael straczynski shows up, gets one, and makes it date rape all of his barbies in an attempt to mature the product |
 |
Pronky_Kong: What if we hand out video tapes of Bob Feller watching Little Rascals and getting really pissed off? |
 |
SlocumGlider: we could hand out raffle tickets offering winners a chance to meet me, and call the event "slocum if you got 'em" |
 |
NeedsABathia: We can have the Tom Mastny Masterlock Challenge!
 |
 |
JhonnyCakes: how about jhonny peralta arrow heads, since indians used those!! |
 |
Pronky_Kong: or Jhonny Peralta Dreamcatchers, which are unable to catch dreams |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: right, right, these are all good ideas /scribbles onto notepad
except for yours, Jhonny, yours was pretty awful |
 |
JhonnyCakes: aww
/drops the subject
/twice |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: Okay, so I wrote "bobbleheads" on this notepad 45 times, Mr. Dolan will be stoked.
So, can anyone remember our three goals for the season? |
 |
Pronky_Kong: goal 1 - tell everybody we're going to be really good this year, whether we are or not, because for some reason the Indians are always "supposed to be good" |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: check |
 |
Pronky_Kong: goal 2 - change the name of Jacob's Field to "Hot Pockets Brand Lean Pockets Stadium" so we can raise enough money to bring back Manny Ramirez |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: check |
 |
Pronky_Kong: goal 3 - do our best in every game and try to make the playoffs, and maybe the World Series. |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: ahem |
 |
GonnyGarko: goal 3 - make sure the fireworks after friday home games are synched up to today's hottest 80s music |
 |
PostcardsFromTheWedge: check-a-mundo
It's times like these I learn to live again. It's going to be a great season! |

All that philosophy can teach,
The lore of jurist and of leech,
I've mastered, ah! and sweated through
Theology's dead deserts, too,
Yete here, poor fool! for all my lore,
I stand no wiser than before. |
