It's good to know

Brooms are allowed into the stadium if the handles are solid wood. Hollow handles are construed as a threat since they could be packed with explosives.

I think we're safe.

I don’t think terrorists would care about blowing up the tens of fans at Chase.

Oh

I understand that.

I like Douglas Adams. But enough to carry around towels? Not exactly Ulysses.

Don't panic.

I didn't get it, either.

Letting our bullpen pitch is like playing Russian Roulette...

Now that Ryan Roberts is coming back up to PHX, let’s drop RyRo and give him his proper nickname, “The Dread Pirate”. He looks much more like a dread pirate with all those tattoos than a goofy “RyRo”.

"DREAD PIRATE" ROBERTS

YOU ARE MY FAVORITE. <3

Then when we ask him to do something and he does it we can pretend he said, “As you wish.”!!

My sig is a silent protest against the lack of hot on our team right now. Lame, Diamondbacks. Lame.

but he is not actually the Dread Pirate Roberts

in fact when he gets traded away from the team (or let walk) we will completely rebuild and get rid of everyone but Reynolds who will then become the Dread Pirate Roberts.
