Philly Takes It on the Road

Somewhere in the Dominican Republic:

/ding dong

reyes.gifWho is it?

jroll.jpgWho is it?! World effin’ champions, that’s who!

hamels.jpgYeah, and we’re here to tell you that the Giants are goin’ DOWN on Sunday!

reyes.gifI don’t think the Giants play again until April.

jroll.jpgPfft! You thought we were talking about San Francisco, you DUNCE?! No, we’re talking about the NY Giants. Or should I say, the NY TINIES, because they’re gonna feel two feet tall once they get stomped by the IGGLES!

hamels.jpgHow bout dem birds, baby? The firm leadership of Donovan McNabb! The explosive running game of Brian Westbrook! The competent blocking of L.J. Smith! They’re gonna poop all over the Giants’ heads like a red convertible fresh out of the car wash!

jroll.jpgAllow me to imply that the following members of the Giants are gay: Eli Manning, Brandon Jacobs, Antonio Pierce, Phil Simms, Frank Gifford, Y.A. Tittle…

A New Role Model for Reyes

manuel.jpgJose, we can’t have you throwing tantrums out on the field. You’re a grown man and you can’t act that way anymore.
reyes.gifI know, coach, I just get so emotional about this game.
manuel.jpgEmotion is good, but you
can’t let it get the best of you. That’s why I brought in a New York
baseball legend to set you straight. He’s an expert in learning how to
control your emotional impulses.

reyes.gifWow, four-time world champion Paul O’Neill!

oneill.jpgThat’s FIVE time world champion, you ASSHOLE!
/rips off batting gloves, flings them across clubhouse

reyes.gifOh yeah, I forget you won one with the Reds.

oneill.jpgHow could you forget that?! We swept the A’s!! I mean, C’MONNN!!
/takes off batting helmet, bounces it off ground 12 feet in the air

reyes.gifI’m sorry, I was just a little kid when that happened.

oneill.jpgAnd it woulda been SIX if stupid Mariano could’ve shut the door on the fucking DIAMONDBACKS!! JESUS!!
/bites knuckles until bloody

reyes.gifWhoah, that’s not fair. Mariano Rivera is, like, the best closer in the history of time.

oneill.jpgYou don’t know what you’re TALKING ABOUT! That ball was nowhere NEAR the plate!
/yanks jersey out of pants, pops three buttons

reyes.gifBall? What ball?

oneill.jpgYeah, exactly–it was a BALL!! I don’t take strikes, okay? I CRUSH THEM! If I don’t swing, that means IT’S NOT A STRIKE!
/bashes water cooler with Louisville Slugger

manuel.jpgYou see, Jose? This is the way a professional athlete acts.

reyes.gifIt looks more like the way a whiny crybaby acts to me.

oneill.jpgWHAT?!
/puts hands on hips, rolls eyes skyward

manuel.jpgNo, you don’t understand. He’s showing passion!

reyes.gifDoes “showing passion” include kicking his cleats off and eating them?

oneill.jpg/gnaws on Nikes

manuel.jpgYes, it shows he’s fiery! That’s how he led the Yankees to four World Series titles!

reyes.gifI thought it was because he was a good hitter in a lineup full of other good hitters. Plus all their pitchers were on steroids.

manuel.jpgWell, yeah, that too.

oneill.jpgWhen you put on the pinstripes, you have a duty to uphold the legacy of Ruth and Mantle and…OH, YOU GOTTA BE SHITTING ME WITH THIS STRIKE ZONE, UMP!!
/rips open sunflower seed pack with teeth, swallows entire pack, spits it out onto floor

manuel.jpgYou see, Jose, you have a long way to go before you can be the kind of inspirational leader that Paul was in his prime.

reyes.gifSo if I wanna act like a spoiled brat, I have to be old, white, and on a winning team that’s not full of broken down veterans.

manuel.jpgPretty much, yeah.

oneill.jpgGOD, I will EAT your CHILDREN!!
/pulls leather strings out of fielder’s mitt one by one with his teeth
