The White Sox Can Blow While They Suck

Mired in a five game losing streak, the Chicago White Sox attempted to bring a “slump buster” into their locker room last Sunday with a few baseball bats and a couple of blow up dolls. According to the suntimes.com:

On Sunday, the bats were circled around the two naked female dolls, one of whom had a bat inserted in its backside to prop it up. Each wore a sign over her breasts, one saying “Let’s Go White Sox” and the other reading “You’ve Got to Push,” the National Post in Toronto reported.

One group not amused by the prank was the Association for Women in Sports Media, whose members work toward ensuring a non-threatening work environment for all women in sports media.

I don’t think anyone should be offended at this tactic—because it works. Whenever I get into a blogging slump I always jam my keyboard up a blow-up doll’s ass and hang an inspirational sign around its neck that says something like “Do It The Write Way” or “This Pun’s For You” or “I May Have Just Sharted”. And before I know it, I’m knocking my posts out of the park. (And before you ask, yes, I am currently typing this from inside a blow-up doll’s ass.)
