(I’m on pinch-hitting duties today, folks, so sorry for the delay! And congrats to J-Money’s sister on her graduation!)
It’s Mother’s Day Weekend, and we know what that means: pink bats on Sunday! I think it’s a charming idea, and it’s great for raising money – they’ll be selling many of the game-used bats. Howevah, you can also buy your own bat via Louisville Sluggers. No, you wouldn’t get teased for using a pink bat in your beer league. Not at all.
I’m a Lady… who loves freak accidents. (I mean, I don’t like that they happen to people, but I certainly laugh when I hear of athletes scratching their eyes on pillows, falling off their trucks, or hurting themselves hauling meat up several flights of stairs.) Golden State Warrior Monta Ellis injured his back while reaching up to sign an autograph for a kid. Doesn’t he know you should stretch before any and all physical exertions? Especially autograph-signing! (scroll down to see the story; it starts at “Murphy’s Law”.)
Dale Earnhardt, Jr., is leaving DEI (Dale Earnhardt Inc.). How does the lone DE in DEI leave? That’s wrong, just wrong. Isn’t Teresa Earnhardt (the CEO of DEI) his mom? Can’t she just make him? My mom can guilt-trip me into jumping off a bridge, if she sets her heart on it. (Love ya, Mom! Happy Mother’s Day!)
Dirk Nowitzki reportedly will be named MVP next Tuesday. Dirk is the first Euro-born player to receive the award. I know some want to disparage his receiving the award by pointing out his hapless record in the post-season, but it is a regular season award, and he did deserve it. Commence mocking now.
Fernando Alonso, race car driver, led the afternoon session at the Circuit de Catalunya with a best time of 1:21:397. I’d never heard of him before, but he’s hot. So, there you go.
PhillyBurbs has a great piece on Ladies… favorite Cole Hamels. I never knew that he had rods placed in his left arm after a break to that bone. It’s a very interesting look at the evolution of a pitcher.
Finally, I know who Ian Snell is, but hotdamn, I never noticed what a hottie he is. SI.com has a great little piece on his own evolution from a thrower to a pitcher. Okay, so I only used the SI piece as an excuse to run his picture. Is that so wrong?
This picture cracks me up.
Metsy, call me crazy, but I’m beginning to think this is a site for the ladies.
no,no,no,no,no,yes,yes
Pam, do all the “nos” result from a lack of eye black? Or is there a better superficial reason?
As far as I know Teresa Earnhardt is his step-mom.
MMFC: you’re still welcome!
Thanks, Janalee.
Snell is so hit and miss, as a player and as hottie. (And frankly, he should be ready to kill all of his teammates for the lack of help he gets when he’s pitching.)
Well, eye black would help, but:
David Eckstein seems shorter than me
Monta, Jr, and especially Dirk I find flat-out ugly, and
that other guy looks too much like Carson Daily, who I think is an ugly douchebag.
As for Cole and Ian, they dont need eyeblack!!!
And Teresa is his step mom I think, perhaps that’s why there is animosity, MC
Metsy hon, thatsa sarcasm. I am amused and mortified as to the hottie qualifications. If a shaven head and eye black were all it took to make us hot, most men would have the physical “build” of Fat David Wells.
But I enjoy the site. Toss the men a chick pic every so often.
Metsy, you’re the awesomest.
shit sorry janalee, i think i should hit “refresh” next time
MMFC: ohhh. I’ll blame my not recognizing your sarcasm on the fact that I haven’t even had breakfast (or lunch) yet.
Okay, I’ll remember to toss you guys a bone every once in a while.
That photo of Cole always makes me think, “SWEEP THE LEG!” I say “always” because a large version of it may or may not be saved on my hard drive.
When I see him tonight I will tell him you all say hello and good luck.
Pam, doesn’t Dirk meet the height qualification? That alone should make him a YES.
Metsy, I’d like my chick pic to be “bone-free”
well, myself being 5’2″, most men make the height qualification. Eckstein is hopefully taller than me, he just looks so short (and dorky)…and well by that that standard alone, i suppose Zdeno Chara makes the cut, call me crazy, but i’d pass on him too :)
MMFC: just for you.
Pam, short and dorky guys need love too. I’m sorry, I couldn’t say that with a straight face.
But I don’t like Danica. She has scary face.
Hehehe MMFC, Im sure they do. And I hope there’s someone out there who’s willing to supply it!
Okay, I know you have to find this chick hot.
Metschick, just go with Jennie Finch next time, everyone loves her
(even though her eyes are too far apart)
/jealous bitch
Metsy, tight black clothes, pink hair and green eyes. It’s like you know me.
I was trying to find a pic of Erin in her baseball shorts, but no dice.
Erin?
Yea, Erin Esurance is her name, correct?
That’s her name. The Esurance chick does have name, MMFC. We’re not all nameless pink hair and green eyes, you know!
Silly me. I thought that was one of the Disney cartoon chicks.
Since we’re on the topic, the Mom on Fairly Oddparents is hot. The size and shape of that behind. . .
Mrs. Turner does have a nice figure there.
But everyone knows Trixie is the real hotness on Fairly Oddparents.
Trixie is a power-bitch that uses men.
Can I say bitch on this site?
Yes.
You can never fail with Erin Andrews.
Erin Esurance gets it done because she is a jock at heart, and that is hot! And she can take down insane killer robots.
Oh, taking down insane killer robots is hot too.
Not really into ‘cartoon’ characters, but in real life I love the pink hair thing man. I looooovvvee it.
Also – Alonso? Man I hate that arrogant dude, I can’t believe he’s hot. That straight out ruins my day.
“Not really into ‘cartoon’ characters”
Obviously you haven’t seen “Japan”.
Gotta love the one-name rockstar photographer…Elsa
