Baseball owners have voted to drop two teams before the start of next season. Now that the nation's downsizing trend has made its way to baseball towns, Page 2 has taken the "drop-two" concept to other subjects that might need a trim (and we're not afraid to name our two, either):

Page 2's Drop-Two List
Subject		Two to drop		Why
"Friends"		Joey, Phoebe		The other four are with each other.
NCAA Tournament seeds		No. 65, No. 16 (East)		They're just gonna lose to Duke anyway.
'N Sync		Lance Bass, Joey Fatone		Budding movie careers, and they don't sing anyway.
Harry Potter posse		Hermoine Granger, Ron Weasley		Sidekicks don't sell movie tix.
Fall TV lineup		"Emeril," "Inside Schwartz"		Equally terrible plot vehicles.
"Gilligan's Island"		Mrs. Howell, the Skipper		Money, food sponges.
Ballpark giveaways		Schedule magnets, "tankards"		Make way for more bobbleheads in '02.
The Jackson 5		Marlon, Randy		Lack of quality solo efforts.
"The Sopranos"		Hmmm...		Do a pretty good job with the whole "eliminating" thing on their own.
NBA Top 50		Rick Barry, Scottie Pippen		General surliness.
"The Facts of Life"		Cloris Leachman, McKenzie Astin characters		Couldn't possibly cut Jo, Nat, Blair or Tootie.
Destiny's Child		The Other Two Who Aren't Beyonce		Because we can't even name the Other Two.
Olympic events		Curling, closing ceremonies		No one's watching.
Led Zeppelin		John Bonham, John Paul Jones		Come on -- it was a two-man group.
Chicago Cubs double-play combo		Tinker, Evers		"Chance" is the one with the most rhyme potential.
The "Star Trek" cast		Sulu, Chekhov		Who needs helmsmen in a recession?
"The Brady Bunch"		Cindy, Oliver		Nobody likes a tattler -- or a jinx.
NBA rules		Palming, over-the-back		Counterweight to new zone rules.
"West Wing"		Bald speechwriter, Sam's new love interest		They feel forced.
Original Dream Teamers		Christian Laettner, Clyde Drexler		Laettner should have never been there in the first place; Glide was one-dimensional.
"Family Ties"		Meredith Baxter-Birney, Brian Bonsall		Did you think we'd drop Skippy Handelman?
"Rocky" franchise		IV, V		Sports Guy would agree, too.
College football conferences		WAC, Mountain West		No more BCS whining.
Holidays		Arbor Day, Sweetest Day		You should celebrate trees everyday. And it's a Valentine's Day knock-off.
Late-night TV hosts		Jay Leno, Craig Kilborn		Did you think we'd say Charlie Rose?
Office pop-machine offerings		Mello Yello, Mr. Pibb		What flavors exactly were they supposed to be?
College football awards		Davey O'Brien, Maxwell		Aren't these covered by Heisman?
Ancillary "Simpsons" characters		Patty and Selma Bouvier		They started it with Maude Flanders.
Sons of Rick Barry		Scooter, Drew		Jon and Brent have NBA jobs.
