All right, kids, it’s time to play the exciting new game… Count the Fake Quote Columns Written by Jim Caple.

I mean, I realize it’s easier to just write pretend things, but you owe it to your fan to at least mix it up a little. Throw in a “Moises Alou pees on his hands” joke… just to keep us on our toes.
