There were flashes of brilliance. And some really, really good effort. Plenty of hustle. Not a bad beginning at all to the unofficial Bat-girl.com 2007 Pre-Season Photo Caption Contest (that isn’t really a contest). A much better beginning than the Twins gave us last season, that's for sure. But I know we can do better.
Don't get me wrong, you all were great. You were. I blame myself. I'm the guy putting the lineup together. It was a good picture, but a little one-dimensional. And as much as I love Nicky, it did lack a little star power. So I need to step up my game. I need to give you guys a better chance to excel. That's why today, our photo caption contest picture features Barry and Torii in an All-Star moment that made many fans glance around uncomfortably and clear their throats, and made many others nod vigorously, point and mutter, "Uh-huh."

Caption on, Batlings.
"How dare you steal my steroids, you... you... you big bully."

I can't help myself:
"The MLB Slash fans are coming! Hurry we gotta get away!"
-or-
Barry:"I'm going to give you one hell of a swirly man!"
Torii: *laughter*
Fans/Teammates (who cares if they're not pictured): "Swirly! Swirly! Swirly"

(Unfortunately for him, IRL, Sweetcheeks would've *still* knocked Barry on his buns. ;)
Posted by: Piranhtachew at February 13, 2007 11:49 PMClarification: It'd be unfortunate for A. J. and Barry.

P.S. I almost peed myself laughing at Eric's link... Too funny.

Posted by: Keith at February 14, 2007 08:26 AMTorii: "Man Barry, you sure have a lot of back zits."
Barry: "I know, I tried putting this stuff called 'the clear' on it to make them go away but it just got worse"

BB: Dude, I'm so juiced I'll recover from this before I even set you down.
"The Giants re-signed Barry to literaly pick up players from the waiver wire"
Posted by: jammarx at February 14, 2007 10:58 AMI was thinking the exact same thing, Sacky!
Hey, Eric, what is that link to/about? I couldn't get it to work.

Posted by: BlueCanoe at February 14, 2007 12:19 PMBonds: "Torii, you think your dad has drug problems!"
or maybe
Hunter: "Hahahahahahahaha"
Bonds: "You think that's funny huh!! You are lucky millions of people are watching this, or I would body slam you!"
Hunter: "Hahahahahahahahaha"
Bonds: Puts Hunter down, "Oh, yeah, sorry about that, I don't know what just happened, I just kind of lost it there for a second, weird!"
Picture is for better perspective:
Bonds- "Look everyone! My biceps are as big as Torri's quadraceps."
BondRage!
Posted by: Spamsmom at February 14, 2007 01:20 PMI'm a littel surprised nobody has used the simple, yet elegent, "BONDS SMASH!"
Posted by: Nelson at February 14, 2007 02:18 PM"Oh my god it's a long way down"
Or
"So is THAT'S where the steroids go?"
Or
(In the voice some of us would use to talk to little Dash)
"You little uchom woncho you so cute!"
"Mongo love Torii!"
Posted by: twayn at February 14, 2007 04:47 PMTorii: "Dude, yes, I get the picture... Balco... okay, I'll remember it but, really, I'll be fine with the gym and my Wheaties... okay, I'll think about it if you just put my ass down..."
Posted by: ramon at February 14, 2007 04:47 PMBonds: "You know, Torii, this would be kinda hard if I were taking so many steroids."

Posted by: Josh at February 14, 2007 06:38 PM"Fans begin to suspect steroid use as Barry Bonds takes an at bat with 215 pound Torii Hunter instead of his usual 32 ounce bat."
Posted by: Wait....what? at February 14, 2007 08:22 PMWait...what?, nice one.
Barry: Man, Torii! How'd ya get your team to agree to your $12 mil? You're coming to help me get my $15.8 million deal.
