My dad wears G-Unit sandals

I found this out over the summer, and it was actually one of the original inspirations for making the blog. My dad did not know of G-Unit, but concluded the sandals were comfortable and he was pleased they could be considered hip.

Bizzaro recap of the day

It's hard to get your bearings in the morning when you wake up to this on the radio:

"The St. Louis Cardinals were 5-0 winners over the Padres behind seven shutout innings from Joel Piniero and a three-run home run by newly-called-up outfielder Rick Ankiel."

BREAKING NEWS

Huge props go to Zach Williams for finding this out:

Ryan Braun is JEWISH!!!!

This immediately catapults him into the top 5 Jewish baseball players of all time, along with Sandy Koufax, Hank Greenberg, Shawn Green, and Kevin Youkilis. Not to mention it immediately catapults him into my top 10 favorite players.

Check it out on wikipedia, which has such an absurd all-Jewish related miscellaneous section on Braun I almost didn't believe it was true, including a link to this article, actually on the official website of minor league baseball and actually titled "Minor League's top Jewish prospects", and it ACTUALLY has a disclaimer at the bottom saying "This story was not subject to the approval of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues or its clubs."

Nonetheless, here's to Braun and Youkilis and their ushering in a new era of Jewish baseball.

Athletes, they're just like us!

They break the all time Major League Baseball record for career home runs!




They take pictures with people in related professions!




They commit double murders on their wives and friends!



They have paintings on the hoods of their cars of which a small portion depicts Benjamin Franklin smoking a joint while receiving a lap dance!
