Pudge fuck_i_singled: Okay, it's August and we've got a 9 game lead in the division on one of the best teams in baseball, so it's safe to say we're for real.
Pudge fuck_i_singled: That means we're going to be spending a lot more time in the chats, and THAT means that some of our young stars need to get AIM names and log on.
TheAngryInge: Did you finally convince Brent Clevlen to be "ClevlenIndians?"
Pudge fuck_i_singled: Not yet, I'm still working on the pitching staff. They're our real strength this year.

Justin Verlander: hello baseball friends!
TheAngryInge: Wow, is that the best you could come up with for your instant messenger name?
Justin Verlander: my name is Justin Verlander, why should I have said my name is anything different from Justin Verlander
Pudge fuck_i_singled: Well, normally what we try to do is take our name or nickname and do a play on words, or a pun most times, to build a clever user name.
Justin Verlander: what's your pun supposed to be then
Pudge fuck_i_singled: oh, well, my name is in reference to an article on a website called Progressive Boink where the writer is talking to then Cubs reliever Kyle Farnsworth over AIM on a cell phone, and
Justin Verlander: I would've went with "Chocolate Pudge!" lol
Pudge fuck_i_singled: -and I'm up to bat, and I get a single, so Kyle sends the message "fuck pudge singled brb," which was funny because baseball players don't usually use AIM on the field, and
Joel Zumaya ZumayaMyLord: I woulda went with "Vanilla Pudge."
grilli_con_carne: PeanutButterPudge!
Jim Leyland GotMeOnMyKnees: mexican pudge
Pudge fuck_i_singled: how about "ivan_to beat the shit out of you all because you won't shut up and let me explain this"
TheAngryInge: that'd be a pretty long screen name
Justin Verlander: What puns can one come up with using "Verlander?"
Pudge fuck_i_singled: you don't have to use your last name, you can use your first name. Or a nickname, if you have one of those. Like "pudge" for example.
Justin Verlander: how about I pun my first name and be "Justin Incredible!!!"
Justin Verlander: no wait I've got it
