Arizona Diamondbacks

The Arizona Diamondbacks (often shortened as the D-backs) are an American professional baseball franchise based in Phoenix, Arizona. The club competes in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member of the National League (NL) West division. Since the team's inception in 1998, the franchise has played home games at Chase Field, formerly known as Bank One Ballpark. The ballpark was renamed in 2005, as a result of Bank One Corporation's merger with JPMorgan Chase & Co. The Diamondbacks have won one World Series championship (in 2001), becoming the fastest expansion team in the Major Leagues to win a championship, doing it in only the fourth season since the franchise's inception in the 1998 Major League Baseball season.

Franchise history

On March 9, 1995, Arizona was awarded a franchise to begin play for the 1998 season. A $130 million franchise fee was paid to Major League Baseball and on January 16, 1997, the Diamondbacks were officially voted into the National League.

Since their debut, the Diamondbacks have won five National League West titles, one National League Championship pennant, and the 2001 World Series.

THE SAILOR-SONG

by: Toy-Box

So if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together, just to sing we love you
And if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together just for you
Racing all around the seven seas
Chasing all the girls and making robberies
Causing panic everywhere they go
Party-hardy on Titanic
Sailing, sailing, jumping off the railing
Drinking, drinking, till the ship is sinking
Gambling, stealing, lots of sex appealing
Come, let us sing the sailor song
So if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together, just to sing we love you
And if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together just for you
Sailorman, you really turn me on
Now the guys are gone, come let us get it on
Girls like me are pretty hard to find
So if you go, I'll kick your Heine
Sailing, sailing, jumping off the railing
Drinking, drinking, till the ship is sinking
Gambling, stealing, lots of sex appealing
Come, let us sing the sailor song
So if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together, just to sing we love you
And if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together just for you
Now, let's fight!
Ha, that's not a knife! This is a knife!
(Ay! Ow! Ooh!)
Sailing, sailing, jumping off the railing
Drinking, drinking, till the ship is sinking
Gambling, stealing, lots of sex appealing
Come, let us sing the sailor song
So if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together, just to sing we love you
And if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together just for you
Oh yeah! Ow!
I'm king of the world! Woo-hoo!
Wow, this was great!
Yeah, baby, you can sail my ship!
So if we all come together, we all want to do
We all come together just for you
