Baseball teams as Simpsons characters
Great, fun article here. The Dodgers being the Van Houten's and the Cubs being Homer cracked me up. And look at the poor Royals. Fun read.

Beautiful. As a huge Simpsons fan... +rep ref.
Houston Astros: Lenny
The Astros aren't much of a team, and haven't been much of one for a while. Even when they perform respectably, it's more a surprise than anything else. They're good for a generic joke you want to make about a second-division team, and that's about it these days.
Lenny is good for a joke (at his expense) and that's it. Mr. Burns lost his power plant? You can get a nice joke with Homer saying "the bank put Lenny in charge." If Homer has a nightmare about his future, you can get a chuckle out of President Lenny. Both the Astros and Lenny make an effective pathetic punch line.

Yea, I thought we discussed it here already, but I couldn't find it so I googled the original article.
Awesome.Arizona Diamondbacks - Inanimate Carbon Rod - Inexplicably shot to prominence after an unbelievable rescue (sealing the Space Shuttle during re-entry, 2001 season). Hit the covers of every major magazine as heroes, and then faded back into obscurity almost as quickly as they arrived.
