Mainstream editors are some witty bastards

Every once in a while a big story goes down, either unexpectedly, or when not much else is going on in the sports world, and we get to read several takes on the “breaking news.”  Tonight’s reported trade of CC Sabathia to the Brewers is one of those times.

It is now our privelege, as the layperson sportsfan, to be inundated with cheeky headlines.  You know, because those guys can be funny too.

Here are a few from tonight.

Fox Sports - because… they, like, make milk products where he’s going.. (and just to be sure you don’t miss the joke, Ken Rosenthal–or the weekend Fox Sports Editor, probably an equally witty yank–notes “welcome to the Dairy State” in the caption)

More insufferable wit after the jump

SI – because they, like, make Beer there too

Probably my favorite so far comes from CBS/Sportsline (is that the same people, or some kind of merger… sheesh, I can’t keep up)

HAHAHA

Now let’s take a look at some headlines around Blogfrica.

[The Big Lead] – The Milwaukee Brewers Trade for CC Sabathia

[BrewCrewBall] – Brewers, Indians agree on Sabathia

[Babes Love Baseball] – Captain Cheesburger Enjoys Brats (+1 Sooze)

Heh… fat jokes always get me.

Cleary, Blogdome, we have it all wrong…

Okay, okay, it wouldn’t be a TGC post without one more fat joke and some shitty Paint Skillz… you know, more fodder for the man to keep on keepin’ us down.  Here you go, you magnificent souls.

(I’ll update the post as more professional wit emerges throughout the day)
