Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death

Open Gameday Thread 9/7 part 2: The Thread Warrior

Dog2_tiny by kenshin1 on Comment 316 comments

In a shocking move, ESPN has learned that the Giants have called up 1 hour old zygote, Mark Lively, to the bigs.   Citing Lively's plate presence and precocious development, Sabean told this reporter that he anticipates great success for the young ball player.    Some critics have called the move premature, saying Lively has neither a functioning central nervous system nor actual limbs but Sabean dismisses these criticisms as mutterings from fringe fans.   His response  "we just couldn't afford to wait any longer.  After all, Lively will be a blastocyst in 3 days".
