<BR><strong>Finalist # 1: Monteros non ability to catch is so overated</strong></p>
<p><em>Budget cutting, we spending less percentage wise than the Tigers<br />
Hal squeezing Cash’s nuts like he had some pliers<br />
still charging ten bucks for some cheap lemonade<br />
these dumb fans will still show up, we getting paid</em><br />
<BR><strong>Finalist #2: Nice (Ca$hmoney feat. the New York Yankees)</strong></p>
<p><em>CA$H:<br />
All you suckas got nothin on me,<br />
Cause I’m muthafuckin Ca$hmoney<br />
Traded Jesus and Hector Noesi<br />
Now give it all up for Joey G!</p>

Tell em to bunt if they need a reminder<br />
RANDY LEVINE: I’m the reason we signed Soriano<br />
DL: I’m currently home to Feliciano<br />

<BR><strong>Finalist #3: Mell Hall cellmate</strong></p>
<p><em>If you got a thin system<br />
I feel bad for you, son<br />
I got 99 prospects, and a Bichette’s one</p>
<p>I got this Grand Street School six-foot-eight-inch dude<br />
Betances throwin’ through steel–Kevlar, too</p>
<p>Heathcott’s heat cocked, scouts see him and go<br />
Slobber like Joba when the firewater flows</p>
<p>No disrespect to Flanny, but it’s Manny’s time to shine<br />
Sorry Nuney, Banuelos changeup f*ckin’ twistin’ your mind</p>
<p>On the farm, catcher stash: One ‘stache is brown<br />
Dirty Sanchez and Romine f*ckin’ holding it down</p>
<p>Lil’ poke for your pu*sy from our big-ass sticks<br />
Slick swings from Mason, Murphy, and the king of all picks:</p>
<p>Son of a Blake Street Bomber,<br />
I’m real glad for you, son<br />
I got 99 prospects, and a Bichette’s one</p>
<p>Fenway, I know this rhyme is gonna annoy ya<br />
Cuz NoMaas pluggin’ these boys like we was Pedroia</p>
<p>Fried bird in his hand, and none in the bush<br />
Josh Beckett lost his rings while he was fingering tush</p>
<p>With Lackey in backy, thumb in his ass<br />
Call of Duty on screen, dying wife on blast</p>
<p>Anus mouth, heading south, yo brotherly love<br />
Human Centipede, Pap’ll be the center one of</p>
<p>Who you got, Boston? Think Iglesias is sick?<br />
He’s Jose with the glove but Enrique with the stick</p>
<p>Meet the home run king of 2021<br />
I got 99 prospects, and a Bichette’s one</p>
<p>Our centaur loves gash, whether human or horse<br />
That’s why A-Rod sticks it to Mrs. Cliff Lee, of course</p>
<p>If you got two in the pink, and one in the stink<br />
Do it like DJ with nine inches in Mink</p>
<p>As sure as Jorge pees freely, and farts got lumps<br />
The Minkman takes over when Francesa takes dumps.</p>
<p>This just in: Suzyn Waldman spotted on Park Ave<br />
Holding her purse, her panties, and a Jeter autograph</p>
<p>Yo, we got a deep system<br />
Pimpin’ Dante’s son<br />
Cuz we got 99 prospects, and a Bichette’s one</em><br />
<BR><strong>Finalist #4: Hey Boston</strong></p>
<p><em>Ya’ll yell “steroids” when Alex comes up;<br />
When it’s Ortiz who needs a junior sized cup.</p>
<p>We gave you Aceves, Cashman what the f*ck;<br />
So when Theo got one right, it was all about luck.</p>
<p>Ya’ll should take a look at Crawford in right;<br />
It’s good that he’s fast, too bad he’s not white.</p>
<p>You ain’t won a playoff game since god knows when;<br />
The Patriots lost to the Giants again.</p>
<p>Beckett hangs out in the clubhouse drinkin beer;<br />
That fat boy’s a Texan, but he’s sure not a steer.</p>
<p>So what does that mean, are you saying he’s gay?<br />
Who cares, he’s the new human rain delay.</p>
<p>You’ve sucked since your mouthpiece left ESPN;<br />
Now he’s ripping Francona to please Cherington.</p>
<p>The Yankees, and Tampa, now Toronto’s in the race;<br />
This could be your year to finish in 4th place.</em><br />
<BR><strong>Finalist #5: Stump Merrill</strong></p>
<p><em>Boston’s recedin’ like Jeter’s hairline<br />
Saw Arod with an American Gladiator doin 69<br />
Don’t go smooth to the plate you’ll be balkin<br />
Cashman bangs bitches and they get arrested for stalkin</em><br />
<BR><strong>Finalist #6: John Sterling</strong></p>
<p><em>That ball is high, just like me<br />
Unlike Jorge, my hands got no pee.<br />
An A-Bomb from A-Rod, or maybe El Capitan<br />
You’ll think that fly to second is really a gone.</p>
<p>Am I wailing Suzyn? The world may never know.<br />
Everyone thinks I’m just another John Doe.<br />
Here’s a secret: You can’t predict baseball<br />
But Mark can send Tex Messages from here all the way to Saint Paul.</p>
<p>A Ribbie for Robbie makes everyone Swishalicious<br />
I still think El Comedulce would be mighty delicious.<br />
I’m not homeless, I’ve got the Lowe’s Broadcast Booth<br />
And unlike Brett Pedroia, I don’t hang with the youth.</p>
<p>Russel has muscle, and so do I,<br />
The Grandyman can, you may hear me cry<br />
Signing off, it’s me, the Voice of the Yankees<br />
One more thing: Suzyn and I do the Hanky Panky!</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The people <strong><a href="http://nomaas.org/2011/02/vote-rap-contest-finalists/">have spoken</a></strong> and the winner of the 2011 NoMaas Rap Contest (with 31% of the vote) is Trevor McYankeefan with his <strong><a href="http://nomaas.org/2011/02/vote-rap-contest-finalists/">horribly offensive verse</a></strong>.  But, because NoMaas is the bomb, we're also giving a t-shirt to Jeet Skeet for creating a <strong><a href="http://nomaas.org/2011/02/vote-rap-contest-finalists/">monster 20-line verse</a></strong>  set to Notorious BIG's <em>Juicy</em>.  Congratulations to both of our winners.</p>
<p>We also continue to be emotionally touched that the Rock Guy from Neverending Story entered our rap contest.  And in tribute, we present the following...</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Who will emerge as the 2011 NoMaas Rap Contest Champion?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://nomaas.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/title2.jpg"><img src="http://nomaas.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/title2.jpg" alt="" title="NoMaas Yankees Rap Contest" width="310" height="210" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6041" /></a></p>
<p>Great entries this year, and once again proof that the people who visit this site have a few screws loose.  </p>
<p>The NoMaas staff reviewed all the submissions and chose 5 finalists.  You have until <strong>2pm EST on Friday, Feb 25th</strong> to vote for your favorite.  The winner will get a <strong><a href="http://www.printfection.com/nomaas">free one of these</a></strong>.</p>
<p>FYI - In selecting the finalists, we stuck to those who followed the rules. It was only fair.  But, there were some really good verses that went over the 4 lines, and some other verses that had nothing to do with the Yankees, but we were incredibly funny.  We gave props to some of these below.</p>
<p>So here we go...</p>
<p><strong>Finalist #1: P_C_</strong><br />
<em>The Yanks can win w/o King Felix I really mean this<br />
You’re over the line Donny, nobody fucks with the Jesus<br />
Lee chose a 2nd rate city thats a bad decision<br />
Becketts from Texas…non steer division</em></p>
<p><strong>Finalist #2: MC Squared</strong><br />
<em>The Yankees are usually the team to beat<br />
But this rotation scares me like Chris Hanson just came in &amp; suggested I have a seat<br />
Oh well, you can’t blame Cashman for not getting Cliff Lee<br />
Now that Joba is fat he better pitch like CC</em></p>
<p><strong>Finalist #3: Corky</strong><br />
<em>My kingdom for a bad haircut, thy name is Derek Jeter<br />
Getting older and older, can’t catch up to a heater<br />
My head looks like Tiger Woods when he tees off<br />
My OBP plummets, but I’ll still hit leadoff</em></p>
<p><strong>Finalist #4: Razor Shines</strong><br />
<em>What a rough off-season, it’s such a pity<br />
Cliff Lee didn’t want to go to New York City<br />
You knuckledraggers just learned a lesson in life<br />
It’s not nice to spit on another man’s wife</em></p>
<p><strong>Finalist #5: Trevor McYankeefan </strong><br />
<em>The look of this rotation is making me shiver<br />
Rotten to the core, like Mantle’s liver<br />
Even though Derek Jeter is my hero and idol<br />
The Yanks could crash and burn, like Munson and Lidle</em></p>
<h2><strong>VOTE!!</strong></h2>

Honorable Mentions:<br />
<BR><strong>Jeet Skeet - Set to Notorious BIG's "Juicy"</strong><br />
<em>It was all a dream,<br />
I used to bang every chick on a magazine,<br />
Po &amp; Mo, and Andy P up in the limousine,<br />
Countin’ rings every fall,<br />
Every Saturday,Jess,Vaness, n’ Mink, I can’t name them all<br />
I let me fade rock as my skills flopped,<br />
Drinkin’ my G2 with Malibu, reminiscin’ on the bloody sock<br />
Way back, before they had that f*g Youk the Lumberjack,<br />
take a crap whenever he was up to bat,<br />
Remember that fu*kin’ douche…Millar, Millar<br />
never thought a replacement player would make it this far,<br />
Now I’m in the limelight, because of my decline right?<br />
But I got paid, blow up like the Cliff Lee trade<br />
My hair is thinner, the opposite of thicker<br />
remember when I used to get to ground balls much quicker?<br />
Peace to my OBP…GIDP and no SB,<br />
Is what you can expect from me<br />
I’m gettin’ old like you thought I would<br />
Call it quits, just like you said I should<br />
cause i’m not…good</em></p>
<p><em>And if you don’t know you know…. half n**ga</em></p>
<p><strong>The Rock Guy from the Neverending Story</strong> - <strong>(Absolutely hilarious)</strong><br />
<em>My hands, don’t they look so big and strong?<br />
But when “The Nothing” came through, everything went wrong!<br />
My friends got blown away, what a horrible night<br />
Now this kid and his horse need to make things right!</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We just renewed our sponsorship for the <strong><a href="http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/beckejo02.shtml">Josh Beckett page on Baseball-Reference</a></strong>.  And with that, we need a new sponsorship message.  </p>
<p>So, we're opening it up to all of our visitors to post your own Josh Beckett sponsorship message.  We'll choose our favorite and send it along to Baseball-Reference.  Keep in mind that any sponsorship message needs to be approved by B-R, so vulgar entries won't fly.  Get creative.</p>

<em>This would likely not be approved.</em><BR><BR></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We asked both our <strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/NoMaas/13589939707">Facebook fans</a></strong> and our <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/nomaas">Twitter followers</a></strong> this question on Tuesday night:</p>
<p><strong>Is there a shortcut home?</strong></p>
<p>The correct answer can be found by watching one of the greatest sequences in cinematic history:</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9IuueKw1m98&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9IuueKw1m98&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><BR><BR></p>
<p>Crazy proppage to these NoMaasians who were the first few to know the right answer:</p>
<p>Twitter: <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/Escamillo222">@Escamillo222</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/JohnnyDaMan">@JohnnyDaMan</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/rayblay">@rayblay</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://twitter.com/NHsurf">@NHSurf</a></strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While voting closed a few days ago, we got a little sidetracked with some interviews.  But, we want to give our NoMaas Rap Contest winner his proper congratulations.</p>
<p>Congratulations to Doug McKenzie a.k.a J[ob]a Rule for taking home 34% of the vote with the following verse:</p>
<p><strong>Grands got range like Cameron, except he gets hits,<br />
Tex like constipation – yo, he don’t drop sh*t,<br />
Pete Abe on a ham run, Papi’s growing tits,<br />
Red Sox-tober vacation, Brett Pedroia to baby sit</strong></p>
<p>Doug has selected the "<strong><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/god_created_mariano_tshirt-235142702917732666">In the beginning, God created the heavens and Mariano</a></strong>" T-shirt.  We'll be shipping that shirt out international, because he lives up in Vancouver, British Columbia.</p>
<p>The funniest part about all of this is when we emailed him with a simple congratulations, he responded with this:</p>
<blockquote><p>Yo, I drop rhymes like tek drop knuckleballs,<br />
Saw mad entries, I spit better than y'all,<br />
My sh*t hit hard like nolan in ventura brawls,<br />
Perenial favorite like the yankees in the fall.</p>
<p>Seriously, thanks a lot guys, I really appreciate all you do with this<br />
site.  You are far and away my favorite website since my friend Bryan<br />
turned me on to you a few years back, and I know you work really hard<br />
to keep coming up with funky ass sh*t like every single day.</p></blockquote>
<p>Amazing.  The people who visit this site are a unique breed.<BR><BR></p>
