    Bobby Karen, as I think you call him in Nihon. Although given the dross our men's team are offering at the moment, a whole team of Karens couldn't be much worse.

    Are you sure it's not hold? I always thought it was hold.

    EDIT: Seems it is car hole and not -hold. Sigh. Though both seem cromulent to me.
