This Fan Danced Like Nobody Was Watching…Because It Was the Trop, and Hardly Anyone Was (Video)
I love baseball and all its idiosyncrasies, but even I’ll admit that the Great American Pastime can be a little slow sometimes.

When it comes to play-by-play announcing in the game of baseball, the Chicago White Sox’s Ken “Hawk” Harrelson is in a class of his own. Never has that been more evident than during this past week.

Watching your team take a beating like the one the Texas Rangers took at the hands of the Seattle Mariners last night can be quite difficult, but this dude and his handy whiteboard make it that much easier.

This Seattle Mariners Commercial Is Actually Quite Funny (Video)
I would have never imagined the Seattle Mariners being a funny team (I’m not sure why), but judging by this commercial for the Mariners’ upcoming season, I may have been wrong all these years.

Picture Of The Day: Which Came First, The T-Shirt Or The Mullet?
Now that’s what I call dedication to a gag. This guy either bought this Randy Johnson “Hair-itage” Seattle Mariners t-shirt and then grew a matching mullet and mustache, or he already had the mullet and stache and bought the matching shirt when he happened upon it. Either way, this dude is kick-ass. I’ve also gotta [...]
