Spring Training is Cool and All...

...but the only thing I can think of is how to get Dmitri and Delmon Young Froot by the Foot.

METEOR SHOWER! METEOR SHOWER!

Some person named Helenback turned my wishes into fantasy!

So, that Super Bowl crap ended without a meteor strike. Every year I dare to dream of the end of the National Futility League's boring... man, I can't even being to insult the NFL because it puts me to sleep.

Anyhow, Peyton's Place had some game or something and no amazing catastrophe from space. Team Meteor mourns disappointment again but soon pitchers and catchers report!

The R-O-D also thinks Wes Welker is a hobbit.

A bajillion thanks to EJB Helenback for the purdy picture!

It's a Peperony and Cheasy World!

That bat is the next super pizza mascot!

So, the Son of Cecil is once again the Prince of the Tigers. High price but... that just gives me an excuse to buy more cheap and not great pizza! Hoorj!

The R-O-D approves this chain of events (and wants pizza).

I Only Want to Love (Love is Meant to Beeeeeeee; Unless You're Raburn Then No One But Miguel Olivo Loves You).

He's Not the Fielder We Need, He's the Fielder We Deserve... Wait, what'd we ever do to deserve Reburn?!

Then all the fandom loathed him
As they shouted out with rage
Raburn, the inept fielder
You headed a ball for a homer!

(Like Canseco!)


...and that, folks, is the very first multi-part R-O-D posting. Consider this a special little gift from me to all of you (1 people). Merry 2012 and happy Mayan Death Orgy Day!

'til Eternity! (Heaven Knows He Can't Field for Crap!)

What the heck is that box doing there?!

Then one blistering summer day
Old man Leyland came to say
Raburn with your glove of stone
Won't you play left alone?

(Oh please God, no!)

Man, Donna Summer is Rather Quite Good (and Something About Ryan Raburn part II)

You can laugh at him because his mom said it was okay (she was booing him when he was in the womb)!

Verse 2!

All of the other players
Always laughed and mocked his game
They hoped to never see Raburn
Ever playing in their games

(Like an amputee!)

We're halfway there! Expect more sometime... maybe before 2012! Oh... my... goodness!

Raburn the Inept Fielder (Part One - sung to the tune of Donna Summer's "Heaven Knows" or another song that escapes me at the moment).

A Mid-Summer Night's Waking Up Feeling Cheap in the Morning!

Raburn the inept fielder
Had a very suspect glove
And if he ever used it
You would even say it blows

(Like a lady of the evening!)

Greetings R-O-D fan(s)!

I have slacked off and obviously haven't done anything I wrote down on my todo list for 2011. So, anyhow, what else is new? However here is part one of some crap I was inspired to do while listening to the ultimate Christmas soundtrack: The Journey - The Best of Donna Summer.

Really, can you think of a better song to carol or WASL or whatever it is you weirdos do when you basically terrorize neighborhoods with your awful voices than the glorious output of the only Queen of Disco, Donna Summer?

I thought naught. So, yeah, enjoy part 1. Part 2 may make it in 2012!
