In honor of the MLB All-Star Game coming up later this month, I’d like to profile my favorite MLB player ever.

Why is he my favorite? Is it for the prolific HRs? For his championship caliber play? For the way he went berzerk  after his infamous pine tar at-bat?

 

No, the reason I love Brett so much…..is this!

From Deadspin.com: Not sure which spring training this video is from, but the video was just released to an unsuspecting public on Thursday, and is destined to go down as a classic; watch now as Royals Hall of Famer George Brett regales a teammate about the many times he’s shit his pants. Seriously; Brett goes into great detail about this, and even at one point follows the poor guy across the field so that he can finish his story. At one point Brett says proudly: “I’m good twice a year for that. When’s the last time you shit your pants?” America needs to know just how close it came to this being the subject of Brett’s Hall of Fame induction speech. He is really into it.

Brett is a REAL man. “Double tapered” hahahahahahahaha

As a bonus, here’s some of my favorite baseball meltdowns:

Earl Weaver vs the Ump:

Lee Elia vs Cubs fans:

Earl Weaver vs Orioles Fans:

EXTRA BONUS BONUS NON-BASEBALL BONUS!!

Paul Anka vs his band:

EVEN MORE EXTRA BONUS BONUS (BONUS!) NON-BASEBALL BONUS!

I’ve recreated the greatest wrestling promo ever. No footage exists, but this is Rick Rude addressing the ECW crowd. I saw this live and it was amazing.

Imponderable #99: Dennis Rodman

Heck, why not? Personally, I’m all for it. I say keep North Korea distracted with nut jobs like Rodman. The more distracted North Korea is, the safer the rest of us are. Send Rodman back, then book a flight for the Philly Phanatic and the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. The politicians will probably send over some package of money and food to placate him, but if all it takes is airfare for some clowns and eye candy, then I’m all for it. I’m calling on the Nobel committee to do Dennis Rodman a solid and give him the award.
