We're gonna need a rally echidna.

[Bulldogg31]

I suppose a platypus would do but where to find one at this hour.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Echidna...egg laying mammal...spiny anteater, sort of like a possum, which is a marsupial,... whereas echidnas are monotremes...both have pouches.

 

[Bulldogg31]

An echidna would actually look pretty cool on top of a hat come to think of it.

 

[Bulldogg31]

The male echidna has a four-headed penis.

 

[Bulldogg31]

That would definitely look cool on top of a hat.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Echidnas form mating trains. No kidding.

The guys line up nose to tail behind a single female, forming a train of up to a dozen dudes.

In an amazing show of horny-ness, these trains can last more than a month.

When the female is finally ready to mate, the males dig a trench in the ground around her and start trying to push each other out if the trench.

Last male echidna in the trench gets to mate with the female.

If that kind of persistence doesn't help us rally nothing will.

 

[tired]

You talking to yourself?

 

[Bulldogg31]

Just bored with this ****** game.

Hey, Check this out...

Male echidnas will actually mate with hibernating females. A few really crafty males will sometimes wake up from hibernation early and sneak into the burrows of still-hibernating females.

When the female echidnas wake up from hibernation they find themselves pregnant.

Now let's score some runs.

You can milk anything with nipples, Fokker.

But you can't milk an echidna. They don't have nipples. Keep their milk in the pouch. Weird huh?

Cmon Dakota, throw strikes.

I've definitely tried this with the wife before. Now it has a name. The Echidna Technique. 60% of the time, it works every time.

You know what might help? If you had an electro receptive snout and a tongue that was 18 cm long. And, if you could flick it over 100 times a minute your wife would let you do whatever you want I bet.

Let's go Jake, basehit right here...

Cue that goat pic from earlier in the day.

Cue that goat pic from earlier in the day.

Ha! Perfect

 

[Bulldogg31]

Rally echidna strikes again...nice hit by Robson.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Another run scores. We're regaining our control at the plate.

Speaking of control, echidnas have hundreds of spikes, or spines, but can control each one individually. Fascinating.

Let's go Stovall, keep it going.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Keep it up!

Like male echidnas post hibernation.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Starting to feel like I'm carrying this thread by myself guys, but it seems to be working so here goes...

So...echidna sperm do something very unusual: hundreds of individual sperms team up to form giant super-sperm bundles. These sperm bundles can swim much faster than individual sperms, and therefore present an evolutionary advantage.

Maybe our boys will team up and score three more runs.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Oddly enough, male echidnas do not use their four-headed penis to urinate. It is solely used for mating. Instead both males and females have cloacas.

 

[Bulldogg31]

This game may go all night.

Speaking of going all night, Echidna males set the bar high. Once the male "wins" the mating train, copulation with the female can last from 30 minutes to several hours.

How bout that Ozarka?

 

[Bulldogg31]

Alright, next game we'll try a wombat

 

[Original48]

I've never seen a thread in sixpack remembers where 95% of the posts were from one individual. I would like to nominate this one.

 

[Bulldogg31]

Thanks. It helped me make it through an awful game to watch, and hopefully we all learned something here.

 

[T-TownDawgg]

+1 on remembers. Speechless.

 

[bulldognation]

I suppose that's one way to kill RallyPossum. They never needed to rally last night.
