October 30th, 2009: Grown New York Men with Baseball Gloves Prevail

October 30th, 2009

As Pedro Martinez was bounced from last night’s World Series matchup between the Yankees and Phillies, the New York faithful got a little raucous.  Boos galore.  Collective chants of “Who’s your Daddy?”  Adult fans waving baseball gloves in the air.

Wait, what?

Yes yes.  We have quite a fascination with grown men with gloves, and needless to say, George Costanza Danny Devito Mr. Peanut and his Wilson rawhide caught our eye.

Our cyber homies over at HuggingHaroldReynolds.com may be *slightly* biased in their favor towards Philadelphia, nevertheless, we couldn’t have said it any better:

“Takes a lot of stones for a sixty year old man to wave bye bye to a big league pitcher…from the stands…WITH HIS MITT!”

Touche.

Impress your co-workers: the fella above is a Southpaw. Grown men with gloves, who are also lefties, always look so much more natural than their righty counterparts.  It’s unfair, really.
