Around SBN: Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant's Post-Game 5 Outfits

Someone in the Mets promotion department must be a sci-fi nerd. This past Friday, the Binghamton Mets hosted Star Trek Night, and the Buffalo Bisons are having Star Wars Night this Friday. This is what McCoy and Spock had to say to Captain Thole. Also, the new Star Trek film was great.

Thole should stay in the minors!

I don’t want him to come within 500 yards of the Mets training staff.

Grission and Husart - that is either the non-union Mexican equivelant of "Starsky and Hutch" or the key to winning the World Series.

Oh man I almost forgot about Star Wars night

I probably have to witness that in person.

Should be safe to assume the following

The Bisons will don Jedi garb, while the visitors will wear the Stormtroopers costumes. Is this the best assumption?

Possibly

although the nerdiest part about it will be the pre-game battle between the good and bad Jedi. Oddly, Anakin Skywalker will be fighting Darth Vader.

Wait, how is that even possible? That’s just an oxymoron.

That's hilarious

Dickey as Han Solo

by keith's stash (stache) 9 months ago 1 comment | 1 rec

With this streak reaching ten punchless games last night, there are rumblings of a secret society forming within the Mets clubhouse known as 'The Ancient Mystic Society of No Homers'. Needless to say, Josh Thole was immediately sworn in as Number One...

At 5:30 PM EDT today Starting today at 5:00 PM EDT, witness one of the greatest renderings of visual sound effects ever! UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule: Volume 1: 2011 No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT No. 2: Tomorrow No. 3: Thursday No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD UPDATE 2: Vol. I, No. 1 (July, 2011) is now up!

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one. Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
