MILLAR FOR MANAGER

OK, so Javylish came up with an idea the other night which is nothing short of genius. Millar for Manager. Is that not a cause you can get behind? Think about it - he already has more clubhouse support and a firmer grasp on statistics than Perlozzo. And... he's not Sam Perlozzo.
Plus, c'mon - it would be hilarious.

I posed the issue to two of my best friends (who are die hard Red Sox fans) today in an email conversation. This what we came up with:

Me (2632/Greta/Marianne): Millar for Manager. The grassroots campaign begins...
Kristen: /waves placard
Me: I have all the necessary skills to make this dream a reality, I think.
Annette: That would be TERRIFYING.  He would totally institute a nekkid in the dugout Wednesday rule.
Me: Naturally. And umpires who make bad calls? Get empty beer cans thrown at them from the dugout.
He is exactly the leader the Orioles have been missing since Earl Weaver retired.
Annette: Empty? That wouldn't covey nearly enough pain to fully express his distress. They would be full. And then the umpire would have to die for making him waste a perfectly good beer.
Kristen: I don't think Millar is one to waste beer. This is just another reason why this must happen. Also, Greta, we work in marketing. We are qualified to make this happen. First step, some of those free stripper necklaces with Millar's face on them.
Me: I just don't think there's any way Kevin Millar holds out long enough to not drink the beer. During the game. In tribute to Earl, who used to smoke a pack of cigarettes every game and kick dirt on the ump's shoes, Millar will drink a 6 pack every game and piss on the umpires once he's good and loaded.
Me: The strippers will be proud supporters of this effort. They know their tips will increase due to the fact that Millar will always buy the Player of the Game a lapdance.
Kristen: Precisely. I think we need to go old school with this campaign. Like those straw boater hats people used to have with candidates names on them? Instead, we'll have beer helmets with Millar Lite.
Me: Save a Horse Ride a Cowboy is the campaign song.
Kristen: Obviously. Somehow KFC gets a cross-promotion for this.
Me: Natty Boh, 98 Rock and Larry Flynt's Huster Club are the local sponsors. National Sponsors include KFC, Jack Daniels and Harley Davidson.
Annette: He will, of course, reinstitute the whole "taking shots of JD before an important game" thing.
Me: Brian will have to covertly replace his whiskey with apple juice, is all.
Me: Also, Ray Lewis will campaign on his behalf. And ain't nobody gonna say no to RayRay.
Kristen: Cross promotion with the Ravens? Oh yeah.
Ray-Ray will start something like "Bitches for the Birds" for both teams.
Me: Correction: "Big Booty Bitches for the Birds"
Kristen: Of course. My mistake. We should get that copyrighted.
Me: Millar is going to be the best manager ever.
Kristen: Although those 7th inning stretch Harley races are going to be hell on the infield.
Me: That's all part of home field advantage. He learned that from Belichick.
Annete: New souviner stand called Tits-n-Ammo is totally happening on his watch.
Kristen: Plus free tattoos for the fans.
Me: Well, for the Fan of the Game, at least.
Kristen: And Millar's all about gender equality and fairness, so there'd be a fan vote to determine which player has to play shirtless every game.
Me: YESSSSS. Also, he's also going to have a tunnel built under the field to creat a direct path between the dugout and Boog's.
Annette: And the national anthem shall be belched before all home games. Except on those days where he gets someone to armpit fart it.
Me: Winner: Annette.
Kristen: If this vision comes to pass, I'm pretty sure we're all winners.
Annette: If this vision comes to pass, the real winners will be the children.

This is a grass roots movement and a worthy cause. What do you say? ARE YOU WITH US??

this goes without saying
I AM WITH YOU!

I am especially excited to hand out those stripper necklaces with Millar's face on them.

I cannot wait to attend our victory party. It will of course be held at Hooters.

Dude, naturally
Hooters is going on the list of corporate sponsors.

Anyone know Davey Johnson's number?

Haven't been to one since at least '01
But they do have one in York, and my wife does not think that I can order a "Hooter Burger" without laughing.

I must prove her wrong.

Well, if it's for the children...
I most wholeheartedly approve.

I think we were all tired of Jerry's Kids...
...so an annual televised fundraiser for Kevbo's Kids will be a welcome relief. Plus, with KM managing (and managing to stay upright, with luck), the new pitching coach would have to be...Sid!

Excellent Plan
Mora will teach baserunning clinics, too.

Who'll be the hitting coach?
We'll need someone to replace the Crow.

I nominate the Horse. Jay Gibbons.

That sound you hear. It's the season in a nosedive.

You're such a shit stirrer!
Maybe there's a place for you on our new coaching staff. It'll have to be approved by Millar, though. He is the Skipper.

Dude, I'm just done being drunk
My daughter's team beat the stuffing out of the other good team in her league tonight, 11-0, and they QUIT at the bottom of the fourth - didn't even let us bat.

So me and the head coach went and had a few adult beverages. I'm a happy guy. So I'll let it go - for tonight. Tomorrow? No promises.

And yes, I realize I probably need to enroll in AA if a victory by a 9-10 SB team is enough reason to drink on a work night. And thank God for Firefox's automatic spell check or you'd know just how happy I am.

Anyone know Davey Johnson's number?

by duck on May 17, 2007 9:30 PM EDT up reply actions  

And those who don't know...
...often don't because they can't tell if a post went up or not after the power went off in their building for the second frickin' time today. I think the head engineer at Moscow Gas & Electric is Sam Perlotsky.

Those who teach...
get paid better than newspaper reporters, I know THAT for damn sure. 'Cause I've done both.

I think it would look something like this...  

but only empty and after he's crushed them on his forehead.
