Nickname for Center and Right Field?

by dayzd toe on Apr 13, 2009 3:50 PM EDT Comment 33 comments

Our favorite talking neck, Anita Marks, thinks The Orioles and Orioles fans are missing the boat by not creating a happening place and naming it for AJ and Nicky... a place similar to Chicago's Bleacher Bums. She makes a decent argument for doing something. They're two of (or at least will be) the best outfielders in the AL, if not baseball, they're young, and they should be around for a while so in her opinion now is a great oppurtunity to market those two defensively by creating a happening place for them.

Would you be interested in a attending a game at such a location, and if so, what you name it.

Two names called in are No Jack City, and The Birds' Nest. Also called in was a signage idea- "Where triples go to die."

Anita Marks reminds me of Gary Oldman from Hannibal

I was thinking The Fifth Element, myself.

Matt Wieters took batting practice this morning. There were no survivors.

Is that a new sig? I'm so stealing that for my facebook status.

It was a comment from some site breaking down his PECOTA

There were some other very funny lines pertaining to Wieters from that site

My guess

Is that those comments were all rips of Chuck Norris “Facts”. Pretty funny still. I think you either love those lines or you hate ’em.

Some groaners...

Wait until we get a left fielder

And then name them all.

We already have him...

His names Felix Pie/ Nick Reimold

I don't know about you

But I’m not quite ready to declare Felix Pie and/or Nolan Reimold the future.

He’s far too old.

I laughed really hard at this. Now Luke is going to shoot me.

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

Nah

Luuuuuke has an express elevator to heaven. He’ll blow you kisses on his way up.

The call-in was amusing..

5 guys in a row chimed in for “The O-zone!”

One guy called in with

The Abyss… I thought it should be the Obyss

Anita Marks and Outfield Names

I think the real issue here is that people are listening to that dude. When they, and the entire 1300 line up moved over to FM, it was a grand day for me.

But I do have some suggestions, for this largely idiotic question:

Center Field: THE BULL PEN
Right Field: STANDING ROOM ONLY (alternate title: OUT OF TOWN SCORES)

Of what I’ve seen listed, though, I think No Jack City is pretty clever. But with the O’s 2009 pitching staff, it’s probably not particularly realistic. When the big three come up, sure.

Anita Marks=“That Dude”…..a close second to “Talking Neck”

by blawk359 on Apr 14, 2009 3:20 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

I agree, +100 for "That Dude"

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.

I like

The Black Hole but I’m sure that not PC with Adam Jones in CF.

So what...

now we’re not allowed to call something in which gravity is strong that not even light can escape its grasp and therefore appears black black… just because our centerfielder happens to be black? I’m so tired of PC’ness.
