• We've never understood why everyone snickers at our theme song, "Get on a Steamer with Cleveland." We'll show you all! In fact, we're going to be the first team to determine the coordinates of the starting location - with a little unwitting help from twelve of our fellow mercenary groups, that is! Incidentally, Mr. Zorg, that is THE worst combover we've ever seen. Wait a moment, why is our Benjamin Harrison doll suddenly beepi... YEARRRRGH!!!!!!!!
  [TAZ staff is pleased to announce that Team Grover Cleveland Steamer has already been eliminated from the competition. We advise other teams to avoid direct references to Mr. Zorg's distinctive coiffure.]
  Please note: The minor change to the grid that some people may have noticed is not relevant to the puzzle.

• Because we set the gold standard in leveraging our synergies and we take the lead in providing a proactive dynamic for growing our top and bottom line in a difficult retail environment.

• My team maximizes the networked leverage that serves as a proxy for the return-on-investment equities inherent in decision-making that is facilitated by repurposing cost-effective goals of the core business.

• The arrival of the Longshots signifies a significant paradigm shift in the corporate world. Many corporations consist of employees with diverse backgrounds. Oftentimes, this can be problematic and lead to stagnation, frustration and internal strife within the ranks. This kind of thinking is oppressive and can hold down progress like a knee on the back of one's neck. While others may have come to you with a short term band-aid solution with no value add (and nickel and dime you to death in the process with their consultant fees), The Longshots can truly provide an iron-clad and unique solution to the problem which will eliminate that silly conventional infighting that results from . Because we come from such wildly different ethnic--one of us is almost a person of color--and economic--more than half of our team is missing a silver spoon--backgrounds, we can leverage our own experience of coming together to help the Corporation's employees rethink how they handle differences and present a united front. Just as we have converted our differences to our strengths, we shall help The Corporation drive home the point to its employees that differences are positive. Going forward, The Longshots will take charge of ensuring that The Corporation's employees buy into the idea of utilizing differences to achieve synergistic cooperation. We are well positioned to work to keep the mission in focus and make it happen. We are not merely hired guns; no, we are in it for the long haul. We are confident of our ability to operationalize and drive home a positive change in The Corporation's workforce mentality. We are not merely experts in demonstrating cooperation and synergistic leveragization, but we also are expert marketeers in proactively positioning the benefits of this type of synergy to overcome pushback and develop a team player attitude among all employees. Although we cannot reveal all of our secrets at this moment, we can reveal that the first step to benefitting The Corporation is to right-size The Corporation's operations by restructuring, dehiring and surplusing redundant, unnecessary and, most importantly, problematic staffing. The learning curve may be steep and the ramp up will be a challenge, but we believe that we, The Longshots, can operationalize an institutional mind shift and roll out a win-win solution for all to lead The Corporation to setting a gold standard for becoming a world-class institution.

• Let's table the periodic elements and stick to the basics. Action item: we will work smarter, not harder to become your AIRs apparent.

• We carry the torch of entitlement and years of being vacuous. Our ability to stare listlessly into space is renowned. We have stared into the far reaches of space, entranced by gregorian monk chants. We have seen the glory of sunrises and even the double glory of twin sunsets without a nap 'tween either. We are glorious for we are silly. We also like to have fun.
