The Blazers recalled Babbitt is under contract, and silently cursed the memory of KP.

Bilbo Baggins the Hobbit is my "Babbit" mind trap.

"Babbitt" makes me think of "Bobbitt." Hopefully Babbitt develops a good slashing game.

8 Mile also comes to mind (B Rabbit), so Babbitt may also cut with his words at a trash talker.

Wait, how much of Babbitt have you guys watched to know that he is a useless player?

Is there no hope for him?

I'll be happy if he learns how to take it hard to the hole.
