Yoo Hoo to Arms!

In this week's Monroe Doctrine, Rich writes about some of the minutia in the CFCL Consitution. He even mentions something that's missing from our rules - the Rotisserie League's Yoo Hoo Ceremony.

He writes about the Doctrine's namesake, Bob Monroe's, experience undergoing the ritual at the hands of his son Ryan:

Bob Monroe was out of town at the end of the season in which he won the title. So he had his kids dump a bottle of Yoo-Hoo on him while his wife took photographic evidence for the league.
Here, for your enjoyment, is that photographic evidence:

Ok... I realize there may be some cleansing of the pallate needed after viewing the above, so here's a link to something to take your mind off of it: an excerpt from the original Rotisserie League Baseball book: A Yoo-Hoo to Arms

Hmmm. These reminiscences have me a bit nostalgic. Now that it's pretty darn clear that the Copperfields have no chance at the 2008 title, maybe it's time we reinstate the Yoo Hoo ceremony...
