I've got an uneasy feeling about this series. I may need some Imodium too before it's over.

Thanks Jane, that was a great preview. And you're right about the Ladies Club; I can't believe Pam Gardner hasn't hopped on that marketing train yet.

Ray King just called the front office and requested that Cooper wave that Magic Wand over him before every game... He also requested two number three combos, magic sized, with an extra large glass of gravy... And a diet coke.

I've been talking about Ladies Night for years.  I never thought of all the promotions, but I think we should be able to run the bases.

Great preview.

Also, Drayton/Pam need to get rid of that pink, purple and green shit being sold in the space previously called The Shed.

I don't know if you noticed, but the unwashed masses buy that crap.

I've noticed.  Doesn't mean I have to like it.  They buy what you put in front of them.  Why not put team colors in front of them?

Take the first train to Shittsburgh

"Shittsburgh," eh?

I wonder what the preferred pejorative for Houston would be?

Asston?  Shitston?  Housuck?  None of these have the lilting, lyrical quality of "Shittsburgh"

I've heard Spewston more than I care to.

I suppose that Shitston has a certain ring to it.

'Necktown is always going to hold a special place in my heart, but I don't know how much it'd catch on without HD to promulgate it.

I like it.  It's innocuous, geographically accurate and incredibly insulting all at the same time.
