What about the kamikaze squeeze? Where Aki bunts the ball and flies into the pitcher?

The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and the chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby.

Invader Zim was great but never quite as good as Rocco or vintage Doug.

I suppose you could say it’s the third best Nicktoon

AT BEST!

Classic Nickelodeon is how I first found YouTube oh so long ago. Then, they had to go all legit on us and delete it all.

I went down to San Diego for a friend’s wedding. The night before was the “bachelor party”. When we all got there, he brought us into his rooom to watch the Rocco’s Modern Life episode where they had a bachelor party. In the episode they just ate a ton of ice cream. So our first act was to buy tubs of ice cream to re create the scene.
Other things happened later, but the ice cream part will probably be my favorite memory.

Hate clowns, when I was young I had a unnatural fear of them, now just hate them. If they get to close I’d probably hit ’em.

You’ll have to face MONGO in the Wizard’s Level

The bases were drunk, and I painted the black with my best yakker. But blue squeezed me, and I went full. I came back with my heater, but the stick flares one the other way and the chalk flies for two bases. Three earnies! Next thing I know, skipper hooks me and I'm sipping suds with the clubby.
