In case you didn’t notice, a few things happened over the weekend. The Cubs sent a message to the NL Central which read, “We’re done fucking around.” The dynamic duo of dipshits, Steve Stone and David Kaplan, must have had a slumber party during which they prank called the cutest boy in class and started a completely retarded rumor about Milton Bradley getting traded to the Tigers. The rumor was, of course, debunked by everyone actually connected to the Cub organization, which is why Stevie and Davey couldn’t confirm it. Our good friends PAUL SULLIVAN and BRUCE MILES actually took the time to ask people, which is why they’re reporters and are taken seriously.
But the most important thing to happen over the weekend was that we finally found out that Rickey Henderson can, in fact, read. The greatest leadoff hitter in the history of the game is now officially a Hall of Famer. His speech was everything I expected it to be and more. Enjoy.
@ Bad Kermit
It’s like Borat is giving the speech
@Oliver – Being in sole possession of first place for the first time all year sends a message. What that message is, is hard to define.
Geez, that was a horrible speech.
Ricky should have just gone off-the-cuff. He had some of the best press conferences ever!
Reading is NOT one of his strengths.
