So, if we missed out on the Crawford weapons upgrade
… does that mean we deliberately sabotaged our warp drive with the Mathis Millennium Monkeywrench downgrade?
Outstanding work. Clever, creative and humorous.
For some reason I suddenly got a picture in my head of Theo Epstein coming back on the screen as Khan and saying to Admiral Moreno “I’ve done far worse than kill you, Admiral. I’ve hurt you. And I wish to go on hurting you. I shall leave you… marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet… buried alive! Buried alive…!”
Good Laughs make an otherwise dreary off-season easier to take. It seems that we’ll continue to be a bunt & run team lacking power hitters as long as papa Soth is in charge.
So does doing a deal with Lord Boras mean we’ve gone over to the dark side?
you know where Michael Keaton suddenly fakes like he is re-wiring the electrical in the house and Terri Garr’s boss comes in and says “Oh, you putting in 220?”
Keaton replies, “Yeah, 220, 221 … whatever it takes.”
"Oh no--Lord Boras! Phasers on stun, Scotty!"
“But I cahn’t Captain, I dooon’t have the powarhh!”

“I hope you know Star Trek and Star Wars are two totally different things. One was in Deep Space the other was A Long Long Time Ago.”
But really great work once again. But disappointed the Bostonian ships weren’t pink.
Halos in DE - December 10, 2010
Yea, but I like Wihalo's postmodern sensibility
of linking diverse and somehow ironically correlated pop culture artifacts
I mean, wouldn’t a confrontation between Kirk and Vader be epic?
Raaddad - December 10, 2010
Yes
Throw Palpatine and Picard in there too.
Commander_Nate - December 10, 2010
Nice WOW reference

Gah! Red Shirt guy strikes again!
We here at my work now live in eternal fear of Red Shirt Guy.
Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought Arte definitely resembled Mel Brooks as President Skroob in this piece
I wonder if the combo to Arte’s suitcase would happen to be: 1,2,3,4,5?
Big Easy Halofan - December 10, 2010
Wait, that's his combo?
Now I’m going to have to go change my luggage.
BruinHalo - December 10, 2010
Nice work, Wi
Still wish the Crawford Cannon was ours, but this takes the edge off a bit…
Big Easy Halofan - December 10, 2010
However the Mathis self-destruct device is now fully operational.
Quad Fin Rider - December 10, 2010
LOL
any chance of deactivating that sucker?
Raaddad - December 10, 2010
Not with the Soth guarding it
Bolt Deck - December 10, 2010
awesome!
Downing Rules - December 13, 2010
And......loving it!
I think this one is my favorite so far!
agent_99 - December 10, 2010
Very good one indeed. Now all we need is a "Get Smart" one!
red floyd - December 10, 2010
If he does a "Get Smart" one would that make Reagins
Larrabee?
steelgolf - December 10, 2010
We seem to be operating under a cone of silence already.
Fred Fredrix - December 10, 2010
Reagins as Maxwell Smart
with his cellular shoe phone, botching up the deals
Raaddad - December 10, 2010
THAT would be funny
“Would you believe we offered Crawford 7 years and $142MM?”
“No.”
“How about 6 years and $102MM?”
“No.”
“How about 3 years and a free checking account?”
johnnyangel101 - December 10, 2010
LOL
Raaddad - December 10, 2010
You guys are a hoot!
agent_99 - December 13, 2010
Zomehow, Shmart, I find zat very hard to believe!
red floyd - December 14, 2010
No, he'd be Hymie the robot
He can do anything but set up a free agent signing.
rspencer - December 10, 2010
Sweeeeet!
Boras as a Dark Lord is brilliant casting. An interesting mixing of the Star Wars and Star Trek universes, too. A nice touch. Keep them up!
Angelsfan015 - December 10, 2010
Would you guys Trade Napoli for Ellsbury? Whats your guys take? I know its been discuss before?
ramo - December 10, 2010
NO
How many freaking home runs do you want the Red Sux to hit this year?
ryanfea - December 10, 2010
Napoli for Varitek... straight up...
:D
Downing Rules - December 13, 2010

The two greatest Sci-Fi franchises ever and the Angels…all that’s missing is some good beer.

Hilarious as usual!

Kohnnnn!
You knew it was coming.
Seriously though, what gives that scene such enormous cultural cachet? It’s like the modern Hamlet.
Suboptimal - December 10, 2010
bravo!!
This is easily the best one yet
ArchAngel_7 - December 10, 2010
NICE
Very well done
scottnak - December 10, 2010
Great job as usual.
We want more of these though – it might take away a little of the sting of not getting the “upgrade”.
angelsfan7 - December 10, 2010
Love it, Wi.
opiejeanne - December 10, 2010
Classic!
Great as always.
Clutch - December 10, 2010
FFFFUUUUU NNNN!
Awesome job!
I also love the idea of a Get Smart version.
Halo Hurricane - December 10, 2010
We may get nothing we really want this season
But at least we’ll still have HH every day.

I like the Get Smart idea.
