Mysterious and Hilarious GA

Anyone else see this yet? From LA Daily News:

"Garret Anderson seems to have solved the riddle of his early-season slump. But he is not sharing the answer. 'I'd like to say, but it'd be hard to explain. You wouldn't understand. There was an adjustment.' Whatever that adjustment was, Anderson said it didn't involve any technical change to his swing or stance but was something 'very personal' which he wouldn't specify.' "

Let the speculations begin!

I think he decided to stop propping the bat up with his ball-sack in between pitches to adjust his gloves. Maybe it was causing irritation down there. I'll watch tonight to see if I'm right. Anyone else have any ideas?

Whatever the adjustment, let's hope it keeps working like it has.

He got a brazilian.

Wax job, that is. I guarantee this. I’ve seen the effects it can have on your “swing”.

Whatever dude.

Not in a million years.

Cut him from the team!

Easy killer. GA’s laziness has been a running joke here the past few days.

That's all right

I’ve lost count of the number of times my sarcasm has been misidentified. If I had a quarter for every time someone had to come in and tell another user that my comment was a joke, I’d have, like…8 quarters or something.

Sea-at-ha-ha-ha that's funny.

His cup was too small

and it was squeezing his eyes closed…judging by the swings he was taking, his eyes were definitely closed!

He's been getting a little lazy with the Grecian Formula, too.

He got Arthritis.

Pills that is.

He had not been taking them and just remembered he needed them.

Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just made an adjustment

Now a lot of Andy bashers our going to have to make an adjustment. I hear that eating crow takes awhile to get use to!

His wife finally ended her season-long nookie embargo

Now his balls are no longer like watermelons.

And to think...

he didn’t even need a clubhouse full of blow up dolls in compromising positions with his bats to break out!

by G&C on May 8, 2008 10:37 AM PDT   0 recs

I think this qualifies as mysterious and hilarious

Oh oh oh…GA is soooo lazy that he wouldn’t even put on his uniform for the photo shoot for his rookie card.

Whatta pimp.

Howie drinks your milkshake! He drinks it up!

HAHAHA.

This may one day make it onto the Ugly Baseball Card Blog. Not really an “ugly” card, just as you say, mysterious and hilarious.

Whatever dude.

by Mayheminthehood on May 8, 2008 4:10 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I thought about putting it in your thread

But it just seemed so much more appropriate in here.

I'm sure it'll make it on that dudes site one day.

Or at least another Bowman. Wasn’t the candid shot their thing? If it was just GA, that makes this twenty times more hilarious.

Whatever dude.

by Mayheminthehood on May 8, 2008 4:23 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

It was their thing for rookies.

It could have been worse. At least he didn’t go for the senior prom look.

We ought to consult Negrodamus of the Chappelle Show

Garret Anderson makes Bryant Gumbel (or Carlton Banks) look like Malcolm X.
