Quick, someone call the Aztechs!
Normally the scores would go here, but it's a new year for the caption contest; all the scores are reset.
For the new folks, I post a picture; you try to create the best caption for it. Entries are judged by yours truly for creativity (or, failing that, dry humor). First place is ten points, second is five, the best burn of the week is three, honorable mentions are good for two, and everybody normally ends up with a point for entering.
Here's this week's picture:

The deadline is nominally Friday at midnight EDT, but I accept entries until I open the thread to judge it.
Go!

Tired of having his intramural softball team getting beat down by the FIRST staff team, Dean added Daisuke Matsuzaka (Dice-K) to the DEKA squad.

My contribution to the game design thread and hey, if it rains it'll satisfy the Water Game Cult. It's perfect!

Wayne: Yeah, I cut that MEGA AWESOME pattern in the field. AND IT ONLY TOOK 4 DAYS!
Soon this field should be filled with robots that i control. Welcome to MY playing field. *starts evil laughter*.
With over 1000 robots on my team next year I will show the world that Wayne-P is the new Dice-K.

"YES!!!!! Finally, I can announce without being surrounded by a bunch of dorks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Steinbrenner) and weirdos (http://www.flickr.com/photos/wisdoc/210845775/) wearing strange costumes (http://www.weather.gov/com/images/fs20060711_ind.jpg) or doing the wave (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmPYKCz-t8o) 4,231 times an hour!!"
*One week later as he runs from the ballpark back to FIRST*
"Aieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!"
Goober!!!

Wayne: I wonder if FIRST would ever let us have a field like this for a game. Then they might have to let us use our tinted safety glasses. I've got my pair ready!

Wayne: I'm sure glad that I'm up here instead of being next to that electric fence in the outfield.
"Abandoned Baseball Field Weekly" Photographer: Hah, you're not getting off that easy....that's our next shot....maybe we can get an action shot.
Wayne: 9 vs. 9 FIRST all star game with robots...Well I guess I better get my safety glasses.

Wayne: They never let me ref on an official FIRST field so... I've resorted to cheerleading (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SYBbQFvH50).
NOOO!!!! PRINCESS SPARKLE (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/27619), COME BACK!!! I know the forest is beautiful, but I am moreso...SEE (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/28312)?

Why in the world did I believe that scalper, these tickets are horrible. Nosebleed section, no seats, and there isn't even a game playing!

Wayne makes plans to be outstanding in his field...

Wayne smiled smugly about how he successfully outbid hundreds of Ebay members for tickets to the MBL All-Star game... and he refused to believe his friends when they insisted the All-Star game would be played in a big stadium. "You're wrong!" He shouted. "You're just like everyone who told Linus the Great Pumpkin would never appear. I'm not leaving here until I see the Great Pum... the All-Star game!"
Rumor has it, he's waiting there still.

They break ground here next week to start construction of the new robotics team facility. Two fields, no waiting. WooWoo!!!

Hey Dean, wanna play some catch?

Wayne: Everyone's got it all wrong. Jimmy Hoffa is buried in a baseball field, not a football field!
Wayne: Diamond plate? Ha!
I got the plate onto the diamond.
This is the closest that Wayne will ever get to first base.

This is the closest that Wayne will ever get to first base.
That's a tough one to beat.

"If you build it, they will come, take one look around, and go back inside to watch the robots in the comfort of an air-conditioned gym."
Photographer to reporter, whispering: "I thought you said this guy always wears denim shirts?"
Reporter: "Yeah, well, that's what I've been told..."
Photographer: "Don't you think he's a little young?"
Reporter: "Yes. But he acknowledged being Dean when he answered the door... and he seems to know all about this robotics stuff... let's just finish the tour, I want to see the helicopters..."

Ok guys, I've got a GREAT offseason idea: Let's pit the 2006 World Champs against the local Little League champs. It's the perfect way to show that FIRST Robotics really can make it in the "big leagues" of American sports! (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showpost.php?p=624558&postcount=1)

Wayne (AKA Dice-K) will be at home on the field, showing his talents on the mound

Wayne got very dissapointed when he learned that his 'brand new game idea' had been taken decades ago.
