Move, Bitch, Get Out the Way


It would be all too easy to make fun of this guy for abandoning his girl (like the announcer does), but let's weigh the counterpoint, here.

In 2013, women are supposed to be our equals, correct? If so, then why is that rule thrown out the window whenever convenient? If the guy had been sitting there with one of his guy friends, no one would be chastising him for letting his friend get hit. Then they'd just be asking why the guy who got hit was dumb enough to sit there and let it happen. So why aren't people asking that question when it's a woman? Are you suggesting that because she's a woman, she didn't know any better than to get out of the way of a baseball flying towards her?

Pfftt...sexists.

The bottom line: the woman was stupid for thinking that putting her hand over her face was going to protect her from the impact, and her husband/boyfriend is a pussy for running, regardless of who was sitting next to him. You're a baseball fan, playboy—knock her over and catch the damn ball like a man!

Tail Report: Female Sports Fans

I'm not sure what's going on with girls at stadiums and arenas lately, but they all seem to be feeling a little bolder. I like it.





That last sign, of course, brings to mind Jenn Sterger. We all know what she's been up to as of late, but where have her three friends been?


They deserve just as many minutes of fame and dick pics as Jenn. There's no justice in this world, I tell you.

Congratulations Rickey



I'm happy to announce that one of my childhood heroes has been selected to the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame. The MLB HOF is one of the hardest honors to achieve in professional sports as a player must receive 75% of the votes (by the press) to be elected into the hall.

Henderson received an overwhelming 94.8% in his first year eligible. For anyone that's as old as me or a bit older, Henderson was a site to be seen on the field, constantly stealing every base once he reached first and pushing his teams into the playoffs and beyond.

Here's a great article on ESPN about his career and the dominance that he had on the field. BC with the assist.

Here's the ESPN TV coverage of the selection:



Here's how the voting played out this year and you can see some of the great players that are still getting denied entrance into the MLB HOF:
