Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

So, "Bullpen Conglomeration Guy" needs a name...


Being the weirdo that I am, ever since this lovely community has embraced the "Bullpen Conglomeration Guy" in the recent set of Mariners commercials as one of its own, I've been trying to come up with a good name for him.  So, of course, when Shields turned his Twitter avatar into "Bullpen Conglomeration Guy" that pushed my brain into full steam. We had a conversation about that very thing...

The natural inclination, of course, is to take some sort of hybrid combination of all of their names. I suppose we could limit the list to those guys who appear in the commercial. Jon came up with "Shavedon Aaloweguitey" which fits this mold. "Chris Shelton" works well enough, too.

But given our past use of the Internet Anagram Server to find (or re-discover) such gems as "Reefer Jaw" (Jeff Weaver) and "Beluga Tits" (Miguel Batista), I had to spend a few minutes brainstorming over there. Working its magic, and my distorted, warped brain, I discovered this:

Barnie Nullsperm

My thinking was - we don't really have the full list of who'll be in the bullpen to start the season, so it has to be something generic.  So I used "Mariners Bullpen" as the text to anagram.

Being the community-oriented guy I am, I thought I'd run it by you weirdos. Any other brilliant ideas?

Just as a side note

When you punch Milton Bradley into the Anagram Generator, the first one on the list is “Rabidly Molten”.

Add an apostrophe?

Null’s Perm?

Switch the "B" and the "N"

and you’ve got Narnie Bullsperm. Both BULLSPERM and NULLSPERM work at the mlb.com shop customizer — for now at least.

It does seem to fit.

Being an anagram of "Mariners Bullpen"...

…(rather than particular names) means it will always work, which is useful in constructions like “If the starter can’t go five innings and the M’s have to rely on a Barnie Nullsperm or two to get them to the 9th…”

Let's hope so...

If only I knew where the line was

If there isn't, there ought to be a big line around getting whale boned by Barney Nullsperm.

My brain keeps switching back and forth between a Robert color crayon drawing and a Scruffy gif. After the red rocket and Griffey(?) on a cross drawing, the imaginary Robert drawing might be the worse of the two.

Well, this is obviously Corco's deal

I'm totally on board with Barnie Nullsperm.
