Baseball Musical: Freshman Year!

by Clutch on May 25, 2009 10:16 PM PDT

I realized when I'd missed most of the game and came in to see the score 17-3, that I wanted to know what happened....but not in the depressing form that game recaps usually take. Why not a musical?

Then I thought, what if baseball were a musical?

Then I remembered the very very talented staff of writers we have here at HalosHeaven, they who brought you 2008's smash blockbuster "Switch Hit! The Movie" and the somewhat less popular but still fantasitcally amazing "Switch Hit! 2: Electric Boogaloo."

So I call upon that staff again, and all those who are new here or didn't (get to) contribute last time.

Imagine that we are producing a show or movie about the Halos 2009 season, or about a fictional yet extremely similar team and season--with the catch that it has to be a musical. I chose the title of this fanpost based on the fact that (a) we have a ton of rookie (or relatively so) pitchers and (b) those who aren't rookies are acting a h-ll of lot like freshman dumbasses.

Who appears? What are the showstopping numbers? Does Will Ferrell reprise his character from Switch Hit and sing "Good Night Saigon," or does he team up with SH co-star Rob Schneider in a touching duet about lost games and romances?

Have at it!

Well that was the idea

Borne of seeing the score, thinking “WTF just happened,” thinking “I don’t want to hear about another f—ing depressing f—-kjob by the (blame here),” followed by “how could this miserable season be made more entertaining,” followed by what you see here. Dunno, guess we’ll see where it goes…

RIP Nick Adenhart.

Oh yes, fantastic

Now you’re making me think “Southland”…“Ervin Santana was a man of tattoos, but this time he’d make an exception.” Suddenly, the music swells…

RIP Nick Adenhart.

Will Ferrel actually went to Woodbridge

One of my teachers at my school taught him when he went there.

Ummm...no

University High. Close, but certainly not Woodbridge.

I think I saw this one already.

Our theme song.

Brandon Wood is slated for 2010, and no amount of whining by us is gonna change that. So evolve, already!

But I thought we owned them...

All the same, we can do better than those Damn Yankees, can’t we? Can’t let those f—-ing east coasters own musicals, too…how many of those great things have you seen come out of the West Coast? That’s right! About time we fixed it! ;-D

RIP Nick Adenhart.
