Usually Mr. Monday reads this blog and drinks some Pepto. But you got to give it up to someone who writes a funny headline.
“Clay Bennett Really Ought to Just Use the Phone From Now On”
Read their site if you must, it’s thick with coffee-stained, pro-Seattle yadda yadda.
Hope everyone enjoyed our trip down jersey redesign lane this morning. Mr. Monday gives high marks to The Dudes, The Hot Dogs and the Black Gold.
A lot of fuddy-duddies prefer their team nicknames be plural. Bah humbug, says Mr. Monday, who figured plural named teams went out with plural named rock bands. All those Herman’s Hermits fans need to turn off VH1 Classic and turn on the 21st century. It’s not the Miami Heat’s fault, it’s Moby Grape’s.
If Oklahoma City decided to rock with the Black Gold (or the Energy, which is the name Mr. Monday is banking on - right, Aubrey? Wink, wink?), there would be all sorts of possibilities. Of course, many of us media types worry about headlines making sense, but let’s just make a rule (The Black Gold wins) and move on with tons of puns.
Best idea yet: Call the Black Gold the “BGs” on second reference.
“BGs stay alive, make second round of the Western Conference playoffs”
Some day sports fans, some day.
