"Must Be The Money" - Deion Sanders |

|
| Star Players: |
"1) Ryan Starr.
The name says it all. This three-year invitational vet from
Boston, Mass. has the glove of Ozzie Smith, the speed of Ricky
Henderson, and the bat of "The Crime Dog" Fred McGriff. Sorry
Kent Lloyd, he's taken.
2) Matt Kita.
The experience he received while working at Lockheed Martin has proven
to be invaluable at second base." |
| Team's History: |
"Following
a DOMINATING 2001 performance where Penn State won it all, we took a
page out of the Pittsburgh Pirates' book and dismantled our roster,
eliminating all of our stars. Watch for a meteoric rise in
2010." |
| Practice Regimen: |
"$1 wells
at Allen Street Grill.
10pm-12am Happy Hour at Bill Pickle's Tap Room." |
| Want to Play Against: |
"Penn
State Platinum - It's made up of guys from the other Penn State campus
and a natural rival.
Vermont - They are relatively obscure and that keeps things interesting.
Duquesne - There are a decent number of kids on our team from
Pittsburgh." |
| DON'T Want to Play Against: |
"Ave
Maria - We don't like the new Domino's crust." |
| Favorite Thing About the Tournament: |
"The
opportunity to catch another late-night ride in the karaoke cab." |
|
|
| Analysts' Take: |
Who
cares whether these guys advance
to the later rounds or not? We just want to hang with them, a
cold case of Icehouse, and a remix of "Must Be The Money" as we cruise
around C-ville in the karaoke cab. If we could do that, the
weekend will have been a success. |
