Because Deadspin hasn't nearly covered Furries enough this month (exhibits A and B), here's Green Bay's Nick Barnett with some new friends. [Twitter, via reader Tim]

Say Hello To A-Rod's New Friends

A pretty outstanding tidbit that was missed in all the madness yesterday: You remember when the Brewers ended up staying at the same hotel as a Furries convention? Well, that happened again this week, in Pittsburgh, and guess what team ended up in the Pittsburgh hotel this time?

The Yankees stayed the Westin in Pittsburgh, which is attached to a convention center. The Yankees checked out today and guess who was checking in? That would be the the furry convention. These are folks who dress up as animals that have human characteristics. The Anthrocon was expected to draw 2,500 people.

Our fervent hope is that some of the Yankees will forward us their cell phone photos. Let’s just pray that Kyle Farnsworth did not bring any firearms on this trip.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. We wonder which Yankee ended up in the room with that "masculine, she-dog" type.

Your Full Klingons-Furries Bowling Report

You might remember last week, when we told you about the glories of the Furries Vs. Klingons bowling match in Atlanta. Well, someone showed up and took a bunch of pictures. Heck, admission was only 10 bucks.

There's a full LiveJournal report, which features exclusive footage of a Klingon attack. The Klingons won, and the G4 television network was there. And the LiveJournal is called "Musings Of A Mouse." And thus concludes your broadcast day.**

It's Furries Vs. Klingons For All The (Lost) Marbles

Leitch — Tue, 25 Sep 2007 18:05:47 EDT

Man, oh man, how we wish we were in Atlanta this weekend. It's the Furries vs. Klingons bowl-off. If there's anybody out that way who wants to pop by and let us know how this goes, consider yourself officially encouraged. We only wish Bob Uecker were around for it; Furry conventions are never the same without him.
