“Must C” Videos for 2012
Among the playlists by which MLB.com classifies the videos at their internetting site is one called Must C. It’s in this category that one finds particularly noteworthy (i.e. “must see“) moments captured on film.
As part of the “Must C” conceit, each video is assigned a word that begins with that letter (i.e. C). One can find, for example, among the most recent selections “Must C Championship: Cardinals clinch 11th title” and “Must C Craig: Craig blasts a homer, makes great grab” and “Must C Clutch: Freese ties it with a two-run double”.
As we enter the 2012 season, there will undoubtedly be occasions on which the MLB.com editorial team will be tasked with producing c-words under great pressure. We at NotGraphs humbly submit the following three words, which also happen to be the three c-words most recently added to the Oxford English Dictionary.
C-Word: Chemtrail
Example: Must C Chemtrail: Pujols launches homer, sprays chemical agent at high altitude as part of secret government program.
C-Word: Chermoula
Example: Must C Chermoula: Pujols shares his favorite Mediterranean dishes.
C-Word: Challan
Example: Must C Challan: Pujols issues an official form or document, such as a receipt, invoice, or summons.
Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
Must C Challah: Ryan Braun bakes this traditional bread for the sabbath with special performance enhancers.
Must C Crip: David Cone completes gang entry ritual.
Must C Cadaver: David Eckstein’s corpse. Authorities suspect he was slain as part of a gang ritual. Suspects unknown.
Must C Coquito: Bernie Williams prepares this Puerto Rican beverage, subsequently consumes all of it to ‘pass the time’.
Must C Chrysler: Learn more about this fantastic new sponsor!
I was going to try to top this but I can’t.
Hey, thanks. Recognition by a well-beered Englishman is in my opinion amongst the highest forms of recognition!
