Pitching Ideas Pillows

"It's a proposal about an idea for a concept."

Monster Baseball. The team's continuing to have some problems this season. Jekyll is good one day and bad the next. Dracula only shows up for night games. The Mummy is always covered in bandages and on the injured list. And King Kong can't keep his mind on the game --- Whenever he sees a pretty woman, he climbs up into the stands after her! At least Frankenstein has been pitching great again, just like when he was young! Yeah, he has a completely new arm!

'You forget, I'm a blackbelt in powerpoint.'

"These projections don't make sparkles shoot out my ass."

'I think you are taking this elevator pitch way too literally'.

"Fantastic presentation! All of the investors loved it."

"Great plan. Could we get some more details?"

Bobby's pitching coach told him to put some stank on the ball.

Blue sky thinking

"He's got great velocity but his trajectory needs work."

The Goalkeeper

'I know, we'll lead off the presentation with me telling an incredibly long and seemingly pointless anecdote about the time I burned my finger while lighting the back yard grill...'

"I don't think he can touch your in-the-dirt ball."

'Yes, Haffner appears to be tiring...'

"Wow! That's a mean curveball."

The rotator cuff fairy.

Arsene Wenger

Pitching Tryouts. Never mind the fastball. They grade on a curve here.

"It may very well be America's favorite comfort food, but nobody is gonna buy a grilled cheese poncho."

Look, Rusty, your fastball's working and your sinker's dropping perfectly. But if you can't stop chasing the ball after you throw it, I'm gonna have to put you down -- In the minors, Rusty. Oh! You should see your face!

Gerald sensed that more than just his reputation was riding on the success of the presentation.

'He hits better against right handed pitching, so pitch left-handed, to him.'

"Take your ideas and run with them...farther!"

'So much for the question of whether of whether or not a curveball really curves.'

"He's got great velocity, but he really needs to work on his trajectory."
