Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Maddux urinates on rookie's leg in shower

Maddux, Wells more alike than you'd think

Maddux? For a guy with a CPA's demeanor, he has a sense of humor that a 12-year-old would envy. Maddux is a master of strategically timed nose picking, sidling up to an unsuspecting rookie in the shower and urinating on the kid's leg, and inventing just the right nickname for a teammate with big ears, a prominent schnozz or some other pronounced physical qualities.

Peeing on your teammate = comedy. I've been on many sports team and urinating has always been a big part of the team chemistry. It's called "team building". This is how you bond. This is probably the number one reason why it would be great to be a professional baseball player. This trumps all the other reasons like the money, chicks and fame. When you are a major league baseball player you don't have to grow up. You can't get away with this kinda stuff in your office, even if your office does have a gym. No matter how much we wish we could urinate on the new guy at work, it just isn't smiled upon like it is in the world of baseball. Maybe it's time we looked to baseball to really bring us closer in our workplace. No more team building exercises that consist of donuts and PowerPoint presentations. It's time we make urinating fun again.

Hey, its just March 1
All they have done as of this moment is play one charity game. This is all the writers have to report for now!

I do agree that this team's greatest depth seems to be in the Jr High Humor department right now. It's all good :->

No news is good news
Spring Training news is something we don't want. The only significant spring news happens when someone gets hurt. I'd be happy if we heard nothing significant about the Padres until April 3rd.

32 days, boys, 32 days.
