Draft Day Drama

The lowest form of journalism and the height of all geekdom, the fantasy baseball beat reporter.  This reporter, however, has a motto, “Take Fantasy and make it….Reality.”  That is why I am to be called The Realizer or maybe, The Realifier.

Anyway, apparently some guy who thinks he’s  most excellent decided to create a baseball league and all the professional players dropped what they were doing (each other) or taking (muscle candy) and signed up to play.  Many players signed the list, but only the elite needed to apply, or in a few cases the almost retired.

Welcome to Phantasmagorical Phillies League blog, your source for everything. Everything.  You may be thinking, “Hey realdudeizer, where the hell did you come up with this name?”   Well lets see if a simple google image search can help straighten that out.

Phantasmagorical…

 

Creepy cat that has an opacity problem

And, Phillies…

 

Never saw it coming.

Hope that cleared up any lingering questions about the league name, I guess its time for you to go find an old house with old windows to stand in front of cause its time to get drafted.

The question on everyone’s mind was Who will be taken first and Who would be the douche to take A-Fraud?  Would Pujols go first?  Howard?  Teixera? Carlos Ruiz?  NAY I say.  

With the 1st pick in the 2009 PPFBD (Phantasmagorical Phillies Fantasy Baseball Draft) The Clitoral Crusaders fingered through the names and out popped Hanley Ramirez.  Here is HanHan during the signing…

(hint: not worth watching the whole thing)

When later asked about the signing Hanley responed:

Hanley is glad Hanley signed with the Clitoral Crusaiders.  Hanley knows a lot about this team and Hanley knows their style play.  Hanley likes thier get down dirty attaboy attitude.  Hanley says if there is no grass on the field then Hanley will play in the mud.

MLB.com had been reporting that The Clits would most likely be selecting some Tom, Dick or Harry with their choice, but Hanley seems to fit just right.

Lets not forget about A-Roid, A-Fraud, A-RodinmyassiswhatIlike or whatever he is going by these days.  I’m not shedding any tears over his steroidbump in his hip.  But he was kind enough to join our league if a team would have him.  Unfortunately Mr. Abner Doubleday snagged him with the 6th pick. And that is why this is his…

 

Sorry Abna

 

 

Well I guess the title of this post was a bit misleading, I swear the next post will be much more o-rama-drama filled.  

Coming up next: Free Agency Drama, we’ll ask Barry Bonds how it feels to be dropped before the season even started.

Please comment and if you want to add something to the blog yourself just let me know and I’ll post it.

You Have Just Been Realizedified.
