I grew up reading Tank McNamara. In accordance, I grew up believing sports cartoon strips were ridiculously unfunny.
Lo and behold, today we get an early Christmas present. My ol' buddy Mike Fisher over at DallasBasketball.com just crafted this beauty.

If you're looking for Nolan Ryan's stamp on this team, there it is. The Rangers had only five complete games last year and none in '07. Ryan, who had six complete games for the Rangers as a 42-year-old and once threw 239 pitches in a gam
