Braden & The Looper

I will now break my silence! On the A-Rod vs. Mr. Nobody Who's Thrown More Perfect Games Than A-Rod controv.!

Guess which side I'm on. Correct. You don't walk in front of a golfer even if she's still putting the tee in the ground. You don't take a shot in a shoot-around until the other guy misses. And as Vincent Vega could tell you, you don't fuck with another man's vehicle. It's just against the rules.

People say, Oh come on, did you know you "weren't supposed to cross over the mound"? I'd say the only reason I wouldn't have included it in the list of unwritten rules is because I'd never think of doing it in the first place. It's too obvious to make the list. The only person who would do that is...A-Rod. The man has "issues," and it doesn't take a centaur-painter to notice it. Everything he does is contrived. Watch him in warm-ups, you'll see what I mean.

The funny thing is, I actually brought up a similar thing to what he did to Braden a few weeks earlier. Check out the last paragraph of this post I wrote after the Opening Night game.

Do you think there's a chance in hell A-Rod didn't know what he was doing? This is a guy who once (once that I saw anyway) mugged for the camera after hitting a game-winning home run. The center field camera. During the trot.

So I'd like to finally say anti-terrible job to one of our nation's newest heroes, Dallas Braden, and to his awesome grandma. Did he "take it too far?" The vast expanse of the "making fun of A-Rod plains" hath no fences, my friend.

Oh and if you find a video montage of examples of people running over the mound, well, do me a favor and just don't tell me about it. I'm sure they were accidents.
 
"The vast expanse of the "making fun of A-Rod plains" hath no fences, my friend." Classic, and well-said.
 
ha, thanks.
