New Screen Name
Now that Gallagher's been traded, I'm changing my username to something with more staying power. The new username will be "Peaches", a joke aimed at Sacramento Kings announcer Grant Napear. Even though Napear will likely end up leaving Sacramento at some point, it won't be anytime soon, and the reference will still make sense, as no current Kings fan will ever forget who Grant Napear is. Anyway, I will be posting as Peaches as soon as my 24 hour waiting period is up. Thanks guys!
Just realized Player To Be Named Later is available, so I'm going to use that instead. Perfect for the A's, too.

But, um, Grant Napear is a colossal d-bag.
"I’m Joey Devine, I’m what Joba Chamberlain would be if he was good and nobody had ever heard of him."
The nickname is making fun of him

Napear ordered Sactown Royalty to cease and desist making these shirts. They’re great. But I’m going to go with something else anyway.

He eats regularly in a restaurant in which I used to work...
and he’s a horrible tipper and one time he forgot to flush the toilet in the single-person mens’ head.

A shirt with a picture of him with "your an idiot" would work also
what’s the peaches thing all about?
I liked "Gallagher's Watermelons"
At least make it “Player To Be Named Later’s Watermelons.”

I'm on board...
I’m changing my name to “Kompassionate”
I don't always blog. But when I do, I prefer AN. Stay thirsty my friends.
Let's see, is DarthLeroy taken?
m*****f***ing c***s***ing peanut butter and jelly!! f*** f*** f***!!!
Thank God the watermelons are gone.
I can’t think of any comedian I disliked more than that guy. I hated being reminded of him every day.

Isn't there already a PTBNL ?
This season, the A's are proving that in fact there is crying in baseball.
I can't tell you that yet.

I'm going to change my screen name
and stop swearing. No one will know it’s me. It will be cool to be liked and be part of the positive spirit here at AN instead of writing things like:
“This fucking team in unwatchable.”
which I probably shouldn’t have written given my new commitment to the new identity which is obviously a work in progress.
Anyway, I’ll be disappearing soon and returning as a profanity free someone else.
"Wimberly's Stirrups"
“Ellis’s Glove”
“Braden’s Fingerstache”
“Beane’s Ego”
“Giambi’s Stench”
“Powell’s Jugs”
“Hairston’s Hairlip”
“Buck’s”… never mind.
Geren's Invisible Fingerstache.

For some reason,
all the name changes make me think of this guy…

with the ever-changing stream of consciousness thoughtstream on his shirt…
I’m not criticizing. I’ve done it too. I used to be K56 and SPWC in these here parts…

well, there goes my Season GOG...
in which I picked Gallagher to have the team’s best ERA.
I think I picked the A’s to win the West, too.
Hmmm… what to change my username to?
