44.24 Out-Phoenixing Phoenix

Post by shoeless.db » Mon Sep 21, 2020 5:45 pm

May 19, 2044 | Mad Popes Record: 16-27, 13 GB, 3-4 last sim
Rolio Elder | Apprentice to the Exalted Mystic | Donkeagle Press



We at the Donkeagle Press would like to sincerely apologize to our readership. A recent article we published concerning the misuse of Sacramento newcomer Fernando Cruz mistakenly confused Fernando's first name as Francisco, including in the damn thing's title.

Our top unpaid intern, Wasim Jaffar Jr., has accepted full responsibility for the mistake as he likely delivered coffee to myself and the editors when we were piecing together the article. For his error, Wasim has lost use of the company bathroom for three weeks. We hope our quick handling of this situation is sufficient as an apology to you, our readers, and Fernando Cruz.

"A mouse scuttles," Exalted Mystic Ralph Dewaldo said. "Metal crushes bone reaching for cheese."

Cruz, in his first full week as a Mad Pope lineup regular, hammered three homers and slashed .345/.387/.759. Over his 15-year career, Cruz has hit 444 BBA homeruns and slashed .289/.371/.528.

Just so's you spell his name right on the check, he'll be fine.

I'm worried, though, about Dewaldo. Either he's trying free associative poetry, or he's off his meds again...
