Fresh off the waiver
Doug:
I sure would like to see this Max Ramirez thing work out.
Mike:
Absolutely.
Mike:
I mean they basically get this guy for free, so if it turns out he is a late bloomah it's all upside.
Mike:
And if he's a bust? No biggies.
Doug:
Well, there's that...
Doug:
But bettah still, if this guy turns into a bonafide stud, we get to invoke the nickname Max-Ram!
Mike:
Nice.
Salty good Max-ram? The possibilites are phenomenal!

Max-Ram was Pfizer's laboratory code name for what became Viagra (sildenafil citrate).
Salty Max-Ram is the current code name for the new sodium-increased Viagra for people with low blood pressure.

So i am more excited to see if Tony Pena, Jr has the Max-Ram to put a ball in his loudmouth father's grill while the old bugger coaches the yankee bench. Pena, sr. (say that 3x fast - there's a Pena, Sr. Dugout!, but i digress) used to be ok, but then he went dark side.

Nice one Bob, I spat out my tea and LOL'd.
Husband on the phone today: Who's this Tony Peen-ah guy? Me: You mean Pain-ya? Him: No it says Peen-ah.
*shakes head even though he can't see me*

Great nickname: Max Ram. Sooo much better than this one for former sox hurler Ramon Ramirez: Ram Ram. Ugh.
