1) First off the Rally-Backs are the mother-effin’ cat’s pajamas.
2) The website you guys are checking out is of the old team (Ray’n isn’t even on the squad anymore…she’s finishing her degree in Neuro-science at ASU-not). Stay tuned for the new team’s bios. Stuff is classic.
3) We’ll be road trippin’ it down to SD to pay you guys a visit during the AZ-SD series-we may need a few pointers in fan entertainment (Riiiiiiight).Your new favorite Rally-Back,
Dylan

LOL.
1) Mother effin’ cannot be used to mofidy the expression “cat’s pajamas” in any way. I am sorry. Acceptable answers (if it indeed were true) included “shiznittle bam snip-snap” and “kickow.”
2) It’s only May…
3) You guy have already got it down! Check neck pulses, pass out Blu-blockers, reference JAG or Matlock, check charge levels on Rascals, keep children off your lawn, shake fist angrily above your head. It’s a recipe for success!

And drive slowly on the way out here on the 10, it can be windy.

I kinda don't understand that photo
Also, I like that a Rally Backer is calling out the Pad Squad. Keeps them on their toes. I’d like to see some sort of rumble.

At first
I thought they really might want some pointers from the pad squad and then I he said “Riiiight!” and I was like “oh man he was being sarcastic!”
by jbox on May 5, 2008 10:38 AM PDT 0 recs
Same!
I was confused when I read that Ray’n was finishing her degree in neuroscience at ASU because the doctoral program is (1) interdisciplinary and (2) currently under review by the Arizona Board of Regents. But then he said “not”. And I was like “oh, Wayne and Garth used to trick me like that too!”

The funniest part...
some of the Pad Squad is just as old as our players.
No offense Nina, but you made the move with the Padres from Qualcomm.

Oh...

Seeing as I’ve deployed outta SD to the Middle East like 8,000 times, I think I knew that. AND that has nothing to do with that dumb broad lunchbox calling me gay…
Aren’t you supposed to be getting drunk, celebrating Mexico’s independence, and contracting STD’s somewhere?

what really matters....
hey dylly,
there is no need for a rivalry. we are all working for the common cause of baseball and improving guest relations while at the ball park. no need to hate based on what we look like.
as a matter of fact we do have some very beautiful padsquad women, but we pride ourselves on our personalities more than our appearances. we all love what we do- and i think that is the most important thing. if you wanna see hot half-naked girls with huge boobs- go watch a chargers game!
if you want to start a rivalry- lets make it about something that actually matters….

how can we make this come to life.....
....a slingshot contest- see who can get the farthest from homeplate
....a rally-off- who can get the whole stadium clapping first (andre could kill um!)
....a mascot dance off- (do they even have one?) i can imagine the friar doing the worm and using a flute like a snake charmer
....a baseball jeopardy- trivia contest
*at least we could maybe get us some sportscenter time…..

great idea...
1. we don’t have slingshots, we have tee-shirt cannons ;).
2. a ‘rally-off’ is kinda implied i guess.
3. our mascot D-Baxter is money. he actually brought out the Philly Phanatic for our Philly series and it’s been great watching them battle it out for the last couple of games.
4. you guys probably have the upper-hand in a baseball-trivia contest and i’ll just leave it at that haha
our game-ops director is paying for us to road trip it to san diego, los angeles, and maybe SF if we have time. shoot me your email me and i’ll let you know what the plans are and we’ll get media out there…

Typical
Really typical actually. D-Bag fans always seem to shove it in faces only when they’re on top and are the team to beat. By the way, is it just me, or is that stadium REALLY crappy. I don’t know, I just don’t like it. Anyone else?

Funny...
that the moderator of the site is the only voice of reason in here. Thanks Dex.
First off, I was merely pointing out that your entertainment/game-ops crew isn’t up to par. C’mon you guys are in SD and the only team you could assemble consists of women old enough to be my grandma, a couple fatties, a trannie, and the black version of Mr. Clean. SD has some of the best looking people in the world…someone needs to talk to your hiring director.
Second, I never even mentioned the fact that the D-Backs are the best team in baseball (probably not for much longer, considering the way they’ve been playing lately) let alone tried to rub it in.
Third, Petco Park is amazing, but if you’re calling Chase Field ‘really crappy’ you’re either in denial or effin’ blind. Retractable roof/windows, a swimming pool, mini ball park for the kids, and batting cages…AND we now have the second largest TV in the world as our jumbotron. Yeah, real crappy.

From another Rally-Back:
My name’s Alissa, and I’ve been a Rally-Back since we started last year. When Dylan told me about the newfound rivalry this season between us and the Pad Squad, I knew I had to check it out. I have to say, I think it’s pretty ridiculous. I think the fact that we have the same job should bridge our squads, but instead we’re arguing about who’s better at throwing a t-shirt? Really? How about if, instead of trash-talking each other’s stadiums and launch abilities, we try to bring all those “baseball traditionalists” who hate cheerleaders in the MLB to our side? And instead of giving girls eating disorders by telling them how ugly they are based on one badly-taken profile picture we man up and say things like: I’m voting for Carrie of the Pad Squad on Deal or No Deal based solely on the principle that she seems like a really cool person and shares a passion for baseball” that we all pride ourselves on having? Just a suggestion…
by Alissa on May 8, 2008 6:44 PM PDT 0 recs
The rivalry
is a fun one, that hopefully no one is taking too seriously, besides me. I agree that we shouldn’t be comparing the squads based on looks and not to throw Dylan under the bus, but I think he was the only one doing that. I think it’s fair to compare them based on spirit and energy.
We are huge fans of the Pad Squad here at Gaslamp Ball and have the utmost respect for them.
