Around SBN: Leandro Damiao Is Still Really Good

I've just improved the classic baseball field with very little thought for safety

Baseball_field_medium

Can you believe that I came up with these great ideas while barely even trying?  It's true. 

The field is divided into pie segments and then they alternate well groomed field and deep grass and sand.  Then there is a moat in the middle of the outfield filled with the city's run-off water and the rare river shark and alligator.  There will be two wild fires burning out of control in the corners of the outfield and moguls placed randomly.  Also there are spiders to the left of second base.

“There will be two wild fires burning out of control in the corners of the outfield”

Out of control, yet limited to two particular spots. I love it!

I just wish you included some land sharks.

Gold Gloves will never be so prestigious than playing on this field.

No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

I think I'd move the moat a little closer to the infield

You know, for safety reasons.

Moguls, you say?


Genius.

you should

have the grounds crew on the field too. that would make it even crazier

They have to stay on the field most of the time

Since you have to keep the alligator in its designated area until the play starts.

You need to add

the dancing groundskeeper guy who occasionally showed up at Pad games the last few seasons. Except for dancing for the middle of 1 inning…he would be out there dancing the whole game.

Wouldn't the shark

eat the alligator?

I think there would have to be a wall separating the shark and gator.

Otherwise, I think this plan is flawless.

I don't know about alligators, but...

one of em is gonna eat the other one, so they need to be separated.

Or you could

attach strong magnets with like poles facing outward on their heads and tails so they can’t get within five feet of each other. Players, of course, would get no magnets.

Oh man! This is great!

Made me laugh for a good 30 seconds. What a way to keep my otherwise mundane Monday positive.
