Go ahead and switch that Yankees cap to a Giants helmet James.

Aww... but Guan Yu looks so bad-ass as a Yankees fan!

Can I just say, I find this particularly awesome because one of my favorite Sausage posts of all time was written by James when he had just gotten back from a baseball game.

If I may set the stage a little bit: this was at the beginning of the 2007 season, and the San Francisco Giants — James' home team — were on the front page of every newspaper in the country. Their star, Barry Bonds, was not only about to break Hank Aaron's all-time home run record — the most storied record in major league sports — but he had just been indicted by the federal government as part of a steroids ring. The whole country, and San Francisco *especially*, was totally consumed by this story. And James writes:

I was surprised to find out that Barry Bonds still plays baseball. How old is that guy now?

To me, that line remains the pinnacle of lofty, zen-like detachment from the world.

I am both embarrassed and rolling in laughter.

Baseball is so last century. Staged wrestling matches are what's cool now. Make the Diamond a Ring, so all the admins can wear skin-tight costumes and silly masks. I want to see what wrestling names everyone chooses for themselves.

Hear! Hear!

(Except the part with the admins. I vote we get the new members to do it instead as an initiation ceremony.)

I'm glad this was never passed. A new member comes on and has to do this. They'll leave for sure.

Weeds out the weak, what with their dignity and all.
