Intro:

(Missing Records)

Form: Baseball

Ann: Last Sunday the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the New York Yankees to win the 2001 World Series. The Yankees, obviously stunned by the loss, say they were promised the win in a four-year, 50 soul contract with Satan. The Dark One could not be reached for comment as he was traveling to Georgia in search of fiddle players.

Flash: Oh No! Baseball’s contracting!!!

Form: Box with X

Ann: With next week’s release of its new game system, the X-Box, Microsoft has come up with an exciting new mascot for their multi-million dollar franchise. Yes, the lovable Bill Gates himself will be appearing in his first licensed video game, “Gatling Gates,” only for X-Box. Help Little Billy blast through nasty antitrust lawyers and evil bureaucrats while avoiding the impenetrable forest of red tape. Sneak past the Department of Justice, and you can be home free in Monopolyville! Gatling Gates only for X-Box, may not be suitable for small children.

(If time is short:)

Flash: As we all know, election day was Tuesday, and in a surprising turn here in Virginia, the race for Virginia Governor was won by Mark! …he he, cause, you know, they both… were named… eh… M… whatever… (band stares blankly at the HooVision with arms upraised in a sign of befuddlement, then walks quietly off field with an “I quit.” Wait a few seconds before proceeding sullenly with the credits)
