Did you know he sponsors Yadier Molina and Aaron Miles baseball-reference.com pages? He's always adding funny little comments.

I had to change the freaking Miles comment after he went into a slump with RISP.

I can't wait until he hits the game winning homerun to send us to the playoffs.

The question is that if he does, will you buy AND wear a Miles jersey?

Could you please change it to the following:
Dear Aaron Miles: I have done you a favor by sponsoring your page. Now do me a favor and change your at-bat music to the Ewok victory song from Return of the Jedi. No, not the crappy song from the Special Edition--the awesome "yub nub" song from the original. Thanks in advance.

That's hilarious.

This prompted me to check out other players' pages.... Braden Looper's sponsor and message:
gyroball sponsor(s) this page.

I finally got around to watching my special edition version a couple of months ago, and was totally PO'd about that. The yub nub song is one of the most redeeming parts of that movie. If you're going to go with Ewoks, George, you can't wuss out on it later.

Outside of re-doing the special effects for the space sequences, they should have left the rest of the movies alone. All the extra scenes and stuff they added in completely do not "flow" with the rest of the film, and the result is a pile of dog poo.

Yes, you can see that the yub nub snub pissed me off too.
