Seriously though, lists like these are usually a bit of a cheap shot.
I can’t remember how Clement was ranked back then (I do know that the Nats’ choice of Zimmerman was universally hailed as a smart move, and it paid off quickly), but I doubt it was a terribly stupid or inexcusably one. It’s not a Pirates/Jays kind of draft blunder.
Bavasi’s strength is player development and Clement could still be a stud. It’d be nice to have Ryan Braun’s bat in the lineup though. I don’t see any Sam Bowies in the first 12.
Seems that the evolution of the term / practice of bukkake went from something that was a necessity / loophole in Japanese pornography (due to genitalia censorship practices) to the group practices you’re all thinking of.
I’ve always seen it used in a singular sense similar to giving a facial or just doing the business on a part of the body instead of inside of it. Looks like the “hardest core” to the practice is a fetish of group ejaculation upon a single target.

The Sasaki clause.
BrianL - May 10, 2008
I hear it, but I don't understand it. Why shouldn't Ichiro be enough for Japanese prestige?
Presumably the Japanese are just like us in that they prefer to root for non-shitty players. Or maybe I just don’t understand their culture.
Could be – never quite understood the appeal of bukakke after all.

I'm pretty sure it does.
Aaron Campeau - May 10, 2008
