OK, that is fookin' brilliant.

Fred's Brim said...

oh shit! Mr F that is awesome

Hideo Nomo said...

Did you make that, Mr. F?

MR.F said...

I don't make anything! People just forward me links, or I find them on facebook or twitter.

"Shameful. This Puig kid disrespects the game. Someone should bean him the face."


Actual words said about the scene John Soo Hoo captured so well.

Hideo Nomo said...

Someone did bean him in the face, so he punched Eric Hinske right out of baseball.

Franklin Stubbs said...

Just to be clear, we ARE talking about the dignity of game where grown-ass men are known to urinate on each other in the locker room or rub their junk on the cold-cut spread?

That's the game we're discussing?

Not to mention writing on the manager's balls.

Franklin Stubbs said...

Dat's class.

@Stubbs

The locker room has a lot in common with a SOSG party.

Paul said...

Respect your elders Puig!!! *shakes fist* they don't make them classy like Ty Cobb or Barry Bonds anymore.

Paul said...

I drank with Soohoo last month. He didnt look that tall. But I had been drinking a lot with FB before that. FB is tall but a great salsa partner.

@Paul

It figures. JSH's mass is constant, but his density varies according to his mood.

@EephusBlue made the Puig graphic.

a friend of mine had this to day today: "Yasiel Puig FINALLY gives me a reason to hate him with his Bush League slide into home but then he goes and autographs his jersey and throws it to a kid. Dammit!"

Stubbs speaks in tongue.

I often have no clue what he is talking about, except when he digresses into European monarchies.

BJ Killeen said...

He's no Scott Killeen! :-D

@Neeebs

Carlos II had a sinilar problem, but that was probably just the acromegaly.

Good thing that 400 lb Corky Miller wasn't blocking the plate on that HR slide.

Chad Moriyama blog has a gif of Johny Gomes punting his helmet as he rounds 3rd on a walk off. What the hell was that all about!?!?
