Random Thought While Watching Baseball

pickersplock posted on Nov 03, 2009 | views: 86 | Tags: humor, baseball, Johny Damon, life
Is it just me, or does Johnny Damon remind any one alse of a Treasure Troll?
 
It's that picture they always flash of him at Yankee Stadium.
The one with his hair standing straight up.
 
It annoys the boys.
I walk into the room during The World Series and ask, "Is the Treasue Troll up yet?"
They hate that.

    Define Johnny Damon.

    Johnny Damon plays outfield for the NY Yankees, Ginger, and he used to play for their arch-rivals, the Boston Red Sox.
    What the heck is a Treasure Troll?

    What the heck means playing outfield?...;-p
  • Twylarants said on Nov 03, 2009....
    Outfielders are the guys who stand way back in the field and try to catch the ball when the batter hits it far.  They stand closest to the wall to keep the ball from going over it so the other team doesn't get a home run.

    You know, roflmao, I don't know what's better ... the post, or the comments ... aw heck, all of it combined.  I've got to say, I think I can see the likeness, lmao.  Awesome observation Pick!  Oh, and for those who are unclear about treasure trolls ... check this link out.  :-)
  • Twylarants said on Nov 04, 2009....
    Ohhh...I remember those things.  Here's a pic of Damon in a similar pose.  Yeah, I can see a slight resemblance if I picture the wand as a bat.
    Good eye, Pickers.

    Gah!  Just hate the damn yankees!  (The baseball team, not the band)

    Being a fan of the lovable losers (Cubs), I naturally resent a team full of high-paid, over-privileged athletes who actually have ability, chiseled jaws and supermodel or movie star girlfriends. 

    Besides, according to the Bosox fans, Damon's a traitor to their cause, no? 

    Pretty funny observation about him resembling a treasure troll, though.  I must say that I concur.  :)

    LOL, Twyla and Ginger, your baseball conversation killed me!
    Thanks for the Treasue Troll link, Heg.
    And you have to see Damon without the helmut to get the full effect.
     
    Try this picture, it's the best I could find, but it still doesn't give the full effect.
     
    Grape, I come from a Yankee family. 
    And yes, Damon is considered a traitor to the Red Sox.
    Never mention the Red Sox in my house!

    Congrats on the Yankee's 80th World Series victory. 

    80th, 27th, whatever...

    What the heck is a Twylarants??
  • Twylarants said on Nov 05, 2009....
    I'm trying to figure that out myself.
    Why the heck is the sky blue?
    (C'mon, Pickers...you know you want to do this!)

    What the heck is normal?
     'Cause I've forgotten lately
  • Twylarants said 13 days ago....
    Oh Oh, I know!! Let me get this one, Ginger...please?
    Normal is what everything is gonna be back to, eventually. It goes like this:
    Normal normal normal normal
    THE TWILIGHT ZONE
    Normal normal normal normal
