A Peek at Topps 2010 National Chicle Baseball Set

Courtesy of Beckett, Topps just released some pics from their upcoming 2010 National Chicle Baseball set. It is an homage to the vintage 1930's football card set. Above is the only Dodger released so far and it's a dandy. It is a Jackie Robinson follow-through with an art deco backdrop.

Rental Man Job Is Open

Last year I went on a mini rant about how much I disliked the Southern California goof ball known as "Rental Man." Well, I've got more to say.

The twisted gyrations and bad white boy raps he spills out will cause that little kink in the back of your neck to cry out in pure pain as your mind tries to focus on the idiocy you see before you. You try to rub out that uncomfortable feeling, but soon realize there is nothing you can do.

The reason- That fool will dance and distract to his hearts content because he is apparently paid a hefty sum to do so.

Yesterday, I ran into a little story at the Huffington Post pointing out a recent job listing for the Rental Man position.

Yes, you heard that right!

The old buffoon will soon be replaced by a new buffoon. Not only that, it pays a annual salary of $100,000.00. Yes, it's a six figure job! Plus expenses!!!!

So the fool you love to laugh at, point at and run scared from is probably better paid than you.

Check out the Craigslist job posting right here.

Oh... by the way, if you happen to see a 5 foot 6 inch Filipino man dancing like a fool and dressed in a cape while holding a shield at a local sporting event please treat him kindly. You just might be looking at your favorite Southern California Dodger blogger doing his best to make some easy bones by acting like a total idiot.
