Like a king ready to preside over his new kingdom, Theo Epstein held court today at his introductory press conference with great aplomb. And this shot, courtesy of Cubs.com, is begging to be captioned on this happy, happy day. You think Tom Ricketts shares our excitement?
So, captions. Do share if you’re so inclined.






My offering:
“My preciousssss.”
“we’re engaged!!!”
“No. This is the proper way to check for a hernia.”
He’s so pretty. I hope my wife doesn’t mind.
Look at what I have created!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
or
Look at him, isn’t he beautiful?
ROTFLMAO!
“Do you think he would go to the prom with me?”
Keep ‘em coming. I’m already cracking up. I’ll have to go ahead and create the best ones and post them later.
“BOLD changes, bitches!”
:::gets up, grabs crotch, kicks chair, walks away:::
No words, just birds flying around his head and little cartoon hearts popping out of his eyes.
“You had me at Cubs manual…”
“im wearing ladies underwear, but they’ll never know!”

“Just what I always wanted. My own little bunny rabbit. I will name him George, and I will hug him and pet him and squeeze him…”

Look, there’s two women fucking a polar bear!
Very cool avatar.
Theo: “As my first order of business, I will find out how to get Tom to stop staring at me like that.”
We got some funny-ass people ’round here.
Hell I am still in shock that we got Theo – I bet Tom is too:
Caption:
Someone pinch me. No, wait, I would rather live in fantasy la-la land if it means we got Theo.
“Now Tom, on the other hand, likes his shocker a little more like this.”
This one brought tears to my eyes
Awwwhhh we’ve both got but chins…Soo cute! <3
“Hey everyone, come see how good Theo looks”
“You complete me…er…I mean…my organization!”
and boom goes my dynamite
“I want to kiss your lips”
or the closely related:
“he got a real purdy mouth, aint he?”
dammit… if only prom wasn’t last weekend…
A scene from The Princess Bride says it the best:
“Wuv…twue wuv…wuv is what bwings us togeffer…today!”
