Ron Mexico Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 No offense, but I once caught a ball hit by Barry Bonds. It's worth a lot of money today. It pays to bring a glove. You could get hurt. That's funny. I once caught a piece of Michael Vick's balls as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gun Of Bavaria Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 COngratulations on catching something from Barry Bonds. Yes, I'd imagine that would be worth quite a bit in extortion circles. Better give it back before Bonds calls you a racist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Any grown adult bringing a glove to a baseball game should be shot and killed. Nonsense. It's a good idea to bring a glove to protect your kids from screaming foul balls. I don't think it's a problem where we're sitting, though.

Garb Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 'wanna hear a Doug Flutie is a jerk story? (Hey, as if I can pass up an opportunity to bash him!) Well, Dougie likes to go to Sox games. Always seems to get prime seats - front row, first base line - prime foul ball seats. Well, Dougie likes to wear a glove so he can catch those foul balls. Yes, he has caught his fair share - and in the Boston TV market -gaurantees him TV time so everyone can see his super-duper, 80's mullet. Anyway, I once saw him catch a ball - with his gloved hand - there had to be, I 'dunno four little kids 'round him. They were pleading with those cute little puppy eyes, "can I have the ball Mr. Flutie" kind of puppy eyes. What does Dougie do? He puts the ball in his pocket. Yes, the Pats back-up QB is a dink.

Wanna hear a related Tom Brady story? He was at a Sox game and this pop fly starts drifting into teh stands where Tom was seated with Mario Cantone of 'Steampipe Alley' fame. So, as the ball descends, Tom is right underneath it so he raises his hands up to catch it when this 11 year old kid grazes Brady's hip and the ball deflects off of Tom's hand and into the kid's mitt. Turns out, the kid was a cancer patient who had two months to live and was there as part of the Make-a-Wish Foundation program--his last wish being to catch a Fenway foul ball. But Tom gets up and realizes he lost the ball and he's realy concerned! But lo and behold, Walt Coleman, sitting in a nearby seat, intervenes, steals the ball back from the kid's glove and awards it back to Tom Brady. Strange, but true story.

Now you are reverting to cancer children and Make a Wish Foundation to crap all over Brady and the Pats? If I wanted to read this kind of stuff, I would go to another board and read 10-year olds gobbledeegook.
