WITH JASON KRIMM 11/21/01

1.  Who is your daddy and what does he do?

My father is Damian Scott Krimm Senior, and his occupation is being the supreme ruler over the O'Neil family.

2.  What position do you usually play and where do you think you work out best?

Positions that I have played are Right-Center and 2nd Base, I think I am best utilized in Right-Center because my replacement in Right-Center Jason Buntine couldn't chase down a fly ball if he had moon boots and a go-go-gadget arm.

3.  You are known as one half of the brothers of destruction.  Explain how you earned that name.

It was an overcast spring day and I was driving down seven mile with my box of Franken Berry cereal in one hand and a Killians Irish Red Draft in the other (I never drink and drive, just go with the story OK).  Suddenly I heard the faint sound of a drum solo, and was strangely drawn to it.  I then found myself pulling into bicentennial park as the drum solo was growing louder.  I got out of my car oblivious to the fact that I had spilled my Killians and Franken Berry cereal on the floor of my truck and the deadly mixture was eating a hole in my floor mats.  I wandered onto the field still mesmerized by the drums solo growing ever louder.  When I reached left field I fell to my knees and the drumming stopped.  I looked up to find a goofy looking stalky fellow wearing a turban who told me to call him Mattsoma bin Marken.  He then spoke to me telling me that it was my quest to produce destruction where ever possible in the name of Peatage.  I would go by the name of The Brother of Destruction, and oh yeah bring my twin brother along just so he didn't feel left out.  Mattsoma then lead me to The IHOP where we ordered pancakes with whip cream frowns, and skipped out on the bill.

4.  Which brother truly is the most destructive?

I always have to pick up the slack!

5.  When were you introduced to the team?

I was introduced in the early summer of 2001, Casey O gave me a glove, slapped me on the ass and sent me to right field.  I was so excited about the slap on the ass, I hit a triple on my first at bat.  That Casey, what motivation skills.  I plan to name my first born after him.

6.  Has your dad, Scott Krimm, ever pitted brother against brother in a street fight?

When I was very young my father took Damian and I to Germany to fight in the famed Berlin Alley Brawls. It was eleven years later when I contracted lupus.  I was pretty useless after that, so we moved to Michigan and began the selling of "Magic Jackets" to foolish midgets boys.

7.  What previous baseball experience do you have?

I spent seven years in the Lakes Athletics youth league.  Then six years later I joined a Redford softball team where we promptly went 0-14. Thinking things couldn't get any worse I joined the Peatage team and got a new meaning of the word.

8.  On a scale of 1 to 10.  1 being a nad bag and 10 being an all star,
rate the following ball players:

Chet Lemon=9, R.E.S.P.E.C.T.
Mark McGwire=10, He walks softly and carries a big bottle of steroids.
Barry Bonds=5, Has he been tested??
Harry Carrey=11, a drinker after my own heart.
Scott Krimms brother in law=10, He came, He played, He retired.

9.  What are your 3 favorite things about being on the team?

The respect that is given on the message board, the ego's, and players that invite me to Vince Neil concerts.

10.  Are you old enough to have been told any of the Krimm family secrets to destruction that we've heard so much about.  In other words, has Scott passed the torch?

On the morning of my eighteenth birthday I approached my still sleeping father carrying my hockey stick and wearing my Redwings jersey.  I began beating my father about the head and neck with my hockey stick, in the traditional Krimm fashion.  This was my first right of passage.  Next we moved to the kitchen where the week long tournament of Stratego was set to begin.  After I won the best of 700 series, my father had to be taken to our back yard to be kicked several times by a goat, in the traditional Krimm fashion.  Then came the final right of passage, I had to watch the entire "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" movie without so much as a grin or snicker.  After a few failed attempts, on the 69th showing I completed the final right of passage.  But as far as Scott Krimm actually passing me the torch, I'll have to pry it from his cold dead hand.


11.  Finish these sentences:

The best thing about our website is there is no gay porn.
One time when he thought no one was looking, I saw Carl slip a "roofy" in a hott chicks drink.  Way to go Carl, that's the best way to get a guarantee.
I once drank
I never told Damian that he really shouldn't wear womans underwear during Peatage games.
If I had one wish I would wish for

12.  What do you remember about the following years:

1980= I kicked my roommate out!
1981= I discovered the unending pleasure of having a sister to pick on, then Jenny was born.
1989= I shaved for the first time.
1995= I cried as the Wings were swept in the finals.
2001= I saw for the first time a battery powered man...

13.  Has Jason Krimm ever:

Taken a test for Damian without the teacher knowing= I took his drivers test for him, for the past four years he's been walking around with my picture in his wallet.
Switch women without them knowing= Apparently genetics were much more kind to me than to Damian.  So, I take care of his dirty work all the time.
Sung Detroit rock city with Matt, Casey, and Damian=Sure did, but never again.  Matt couldn't keep the rhythm, Casey was just plain flat, and don't get me started on Damian.
Brought destruction upon Germany= Indeed I have, and Germany hadn't seen destruction of such magnitude since W.W.II.
Just wanted to dance= Just last Thursday I was telling my good friend Casey O, Dude tonight I just gotta dance... Screw chicks man, I just gotta dance!!

14.Who is your favorite former Peetage player?  (Ex:  Lorne, Kyle, Scott,
Jeff, Gary, Ritz, Jimmy "airwolf" Moore, Scott Krimm's brother in law)

I gotta love that Airwolf.  Jimmy was all heart and skill... wait or was it no heart and skill?  Oh well, lets hear it for Scott Krimms bro-in-law!

15. Tell us one thing about yourself that the team doesn't already know.

I have the amazing talent to be able to: Drive a manual transmission, up hill, making a left hand turn, while talking on my cell phone, flipping through my 12 disc CD changer, and eating Taco Bell simultaneously.

16.  Word association.  Mention the first thing that comes to you when you
hear:

I heard the ball hit the ground= They say that the other senses of blind people are made keen due to their handicap... maybe he did hear it???
Watch your language= WATCH THE GAME!!
Tits= One of the "seven", but one of the top seven for Scotty-too-Hotty.
Last call= The only standard I have at last call is, if I can literally hide behind her, it's a no go.
Chicks dude chicks= If you cant keep it in your pants, atleast keep it in the family.

17.  What are your plans for the offseason this winter?

My fellow Brother of Destruction and I start each day by breaking a Louisville Slugger over eachothers heads, to prepare for the unending pain of another Peatage season.  It's not the initial blow from the bat that's so terrible, it's picking the splinters out of eachothers scalps that gets me.

18.  What have the Krimms used the video camera for besides filming Sockey?

They say you never forget your first time, I sure won't...

19.  Carol Krimm vs. Carol Marken in a good housekeeping match. Who wins?

The match would start with some friendly chatting, and sharing of recipes.  Then Marken would bring up vacuum cleaners and Krimm would have to whip out the Dirt Devil and lay the smackith down.

20.  Did you enjoy your 20 questions Jason Krimm?  (Also use this space to say anything you want or plug your stuff/website/merchandise)

I would like to say that the 20 questions has been a great way for me to joke around and that it has truly been a pleasure to be part of the Peatage Organization.  I would also like to say that I support all members in the choices that they make, with the exception of Matt Marken and his homosexuality.

Just an FYI:  You can keep up with the Brothers of Destruction in their off season adventures, when they trade in the diamond for the rink for some roller hockey action.  Starting this January check out www.USBlades.com under the team name The Sharks in the Adult Copper League.
