I believe a number of us were Chris Burke fans not too long ago.

Nothing will end our interest in Craig Counsell.
The man is mysterious and sexy beyond measure.

Give me a lineup of 9 Ryan Freels, and I'll show you a team that can't pitch.

A limerick
Craig Counsell, it should be considered,
Is a ballplayer, aged and withered.
Signing him’s a mistake
So for Jocketty’s sake
We hope that Walt finds himself outbiddered.
(It’s a perfectly cromulent rhyme.)

Actually, that’s only if you tried “admin/password” when he walked way. Because 95% of the time that works.

his username was jrogers
I turned my head intentionally when he started his password. If I didn’t I would have memorized it out of principle.
