Around SBN: Holy War Week Brings out the Worst in Fans

I'm pretty sure this falls firmly in the realm of sarcasm, but it is a good thing for us to remember too. Its always good to lean back, take a deep breath, and laugh at ourselves every now and again. If this isn't sarcasm on their part, they need to see how we live year to year so they too can learn the zen of the penant race.

Seriously?

You seriously posted a link to the Evil BCB? Are you insane?

I’m sorry, but I’m issuing you a technical balk in triplicate and deducting 1,000 BCB points from your account. Another screwup like this and I may be forced to require you to subject yourself to the ancient art of sand pounding.

I'm a fairly

open-minded individual and open to seeing humor in just about anything—even bizarro BCB. I frequent there to see what the competition is saying and happened to see something there that we Cubs fans at the one and true BCB might appreciate more that just about any other fans in baseball, especially the ones that put that picture up.

Sigh...alright...

…but just to save everyone from dirtying themselves by entering that den if iniquity, here’s the picture in question:

The caption reads: “This is the perfect time to panic!”

Funny cause that rocket is clearly blasting off NOT crashing.

I think we should refer to the "other" BCB as

The bizarro BCB, like that Seinfeld episode with bizarro Jerry. Everything is the exact opposite there as it is here.

"Pseudo-"

My next sig line quote will also be from Lou Piniella, and the first word will be either "Look", or "Listen", followed by a comma.

bizzaro BCB. They have always been evil BCB to me.
