Home Run Derby

Blue Jays CF Vernon Wells had a very unqiue way of handling some loudmouth hecklers while he was in Cleveland last week.

He heckled back - via a baseball.
This past Wednesday, a group of Cleveland Indian fans were tossing some lame-ass criticism towards Wells …

“You Suck!” “You like men”

How original. Randy Quaid did a better job of heckling Rick Vaughn in Major League II.

One of the Hecklers wanted Wells to give him a ball. Why he thought he’d get one is beyond me, but I suppose it never hurts to ask.

Wells gave him a ball. And even personalized it for the guy …

“Here’s your ball, now please tell me what gas station you work at so I can come and yell at you when you’re working. Please sit down, shut up and enjoy the game. From your favorite centre fielder, Vernon Wells.”

How long until the ball ends up on eBay?

American foot ball team seattle seahawks are the only team to play for NFC and AFC championship games. They joined nfl in 1976 as expansion teams Along with Baltimore ravens , washington redskins are the only teams that have official marching bands.

Barry Bonds knocked out his 10th Home Run last night … creeping within eleven HR of Hank Aaron’s all-time record.

I think Bonds’ head is getting bigger. Maybe it’s just the Jersey that says Gigantes that makes me think of the side-effects of HGH.

The Cardinals are in bad shape. Their 2007 so far: Two Drunk Drivers (one of them dead), Slumping Batters, 4-10 Home Record, and now Carpenter is on the DL for three months.

Could they be the 2nd team to go from First to Worst? I still think their World Series Rings are Cursed.
