The New Yorker Cartoon Anti-Caption Contest #315
WINNERS
FIRST PLACE"This latest incident has left a damaged and frightened Virginia Tech wondering, 'Why us?' Back to you, Bob."-- smuck (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Cold hearted yet slightly topical. After the first round of carnnage, the Yankees traveled to the shaken school to play an exhibition game. Predictably they kicked the shit out of the VT team but still managed to make them feel good about themselves. A medaphor for the Anti-Cap I believe.)
SECOND PLACE"I see Gitmo in his future, as in gitmo' pussy than he knows what to do with. You rock, Green Giant!" --Also Grandma (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Crude but there may be political commentary here. Still, if he doesn't know what to do with it, what's the point?)
THIRD PLACE"I bet it turns his tongue bright red." --Anonymous (JUDGE'S COMMENT: And if he is eating a Chinese guy he'll be hungry again in a half hour. This stuff writes itself.)
HONORABLE MENTIONS"First it's the Jets, now the Giants. I hate this fucking city."--Anonymous (JUDGE'S COMMENT: If only the Knicks had the sense to sign this guy you'd have something to cheer about. Any one notice how the Rangers thumped the Flyers in the NHL's Winter Classic? Nice.)
Ho! HO! Ho- my ass !! Looks like he's carb loading again!! --Blonde (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Since this was entered around Christmas you gotta like the holiday theme.)
Is he from UC or Xavier? I can't tell the players without a uniform--JohnnyB (JUDGE'S COMMENT: This makes no sence but I think we have to let Johnny be Johnny or he'll ditch us again.)"Don't worry. JohnnyB is back. He'll know what to do." --Anonymous (JUDGE'S COMMENT: As if. Still I include this because I may be the only fan Johnny has here.)
Yeah, maybe he can play in Florida, but this is the big time now and I just don't think he has the intangibles to be a starter at this level. --Austin (JUDGE'S COMMENT: A knock against Tim Tebow. I only hate him because I hate the Denver Broncos.)
"Just one crossbeam falling into the shape of a cross, and the religious nuts will be quite happy about this." --Glenn (JUDGE'S COMMENT: They won't be happy, Just validated.)
“Alas, my love, you do me wrong,To cast me off discourteously.For I have loved you well and long,Delighting in your company.Greenjeans was all my joyGreenjeans was my delight,Greenjeans was my heart of gold,And who but my Mr. Greenjeans.” ---Henry VIII (JUDGE'S COMMENT: A lot of thought went into this. Reminds me of that old Neil Young song: "Homegrown's alright with me...")
"Green Giant outbit Evrolet." --Glenn (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Evrolet woman never bite anyone, Glenn. The only thing you are demonstrating is your slaveish devotion to this contest. Nuff said.)
"Angry? Of course, he's angry. alinla just posted the winners of Contest #314. You'd be angry, too . . . he wasn't referenced once."---Green with Envy (JUDGE'S COMMENT: The signature tells us all we need to know.)
Merry Christmas, mr. and mrs. al.--Jim Cavanaugh (JUDGE'S COMMENT: Thanks Jim. For the first time in three years we bought a tree. And for the first timne in my life I bought a gift for my granddaughter. God bless us everyone [especially you, Jim].)

"This could be the end, sobbed Baron Von Recklinghausen, cradling (a verb) his scrotum, which was gently swaying to the Andrew Sisters version of "Under Here", and pausing only occasionally to scratch his itching left armpit while his sapphire painted hammer toe nails, brimming with Caciocavallo Podolico Cheese, rotated slowly toward the gibbous moon that hung in the brooding sky like a tobacco-stained nail paring."
