* Nobody minded when the Sasquach had his own bus written into his contract. “The smell, ya know…” said one player, who asked not to be named. “Anyone could have body odor, but this guy could knock flies off skunk roadkill.”
* Wait until you meet our new catcher!
*At least we’ve got him THROWING the ball, now. A few hours ago, he was EATING the things.
* Theimporting of the game of Baseball to the planet of Wookazie, did present a basic problem; Wookies, not having adopted clothing, had no concept of uniforms. This made for some rather interesting problems during the game.

The team was a bit conflicted with their new pitcher. On the one hand his dominating presence and 112 MPH fast ball was a welcome addition to a team struggling late in the season. On the other hand, the drain in the team showers seemed to be continually plugged. Finally management decided if he can pass the drug test, they would put him into the rotation.

Chewbacca would have been a cinch for Wookie of the Year if the league hadn’t taken exception to what it referred to as “his shameless promotion of smokeless tobacco.”
Rafael Palmiero continues to deny taking massive doses of steroids or Minoxidil as he tries to resurrect his career as a pitcher in AA ball.
No matter where you play, it’s still sixty feet six inches to home, ninety feet to first, and a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…

“And yes fans are still disappointed with MLB Union not signing a contract extension. But the replacement players brought in from Hollywood has proved to very entertaining for many of the crowd, bringing in sellout crowds to all of the end-of-season games.
So yes folks, there will be a World Series this year of the Walkout, between the George Lucas ILM and Creature Shop team of ‘Furs and Lasers’(TM) and the Dreamwork’s Shrek4 teams.
And that’s all from Los Angeles Angels of Anahiem field.”

* Things started getting out of hand when he started pitching hairballs.
* While playing for the farm team in Oklahoma, he once got into an argument with a news reporter who called him the furry with a fringe on top.

Last year, the Red Sox broke the fabled curse of the Bambino and won the World Series, but only after coming back from a 3-1 deficit to the Yankees to win the AL pennant. In the Star Wars movies, the wookie Chewbacca was a pal of Han Solo, who was played by Harrison Ford. Harrison Ford also played Indiana Jones, who found the Ark of the Covenant but then lost it somewhere in a government warehouse. Remember that an army that marches with the Ark of the Covenant before it is invincible. And now, Chewbacca appears in Fenway with the word “ARK” above his head. Coincidence? Dan Brown and I think not!
