Sometimes, my bretheren can be so dumb. Wow, that's really really bad. I mean, that's up there with the rumor Buster Olney made up involving Lowell and Chris Young (and Linebrink)

I read Lowell for Peavy.

I also read some forum posts stating that that trade would be a dumb one...for the Red Sox.

I got a good chuckle or two out of those.

I smell typical Red Sox Nation homerism/BS/lying at its finest...

Well long story short, Barry Zito and a few other players are out in center and right center fields shagging balls. Barry Zito stood there with another teammate and was picking his nose. Well, this was spotted by a kid (about 16-17 years old) standing next to me and this kid yells out "Hey, Barry stop digging up your nose, we saw that". Nothing real mean, just busting Zito's chops that we saw him picking his nose.

Well after a couple more calls out to Zito by this kid who is a Red Sox fan, he turns around with his entire finger up his nose ... he grabs his crouch, gives this kid the finger and says "kiss my a*$ you fu*king a*shole".

Now thats a real classy move by a Major League ballplayer. Like I said, this kid wasn't being rude to Zito and had hardly heckled him but more like just busted his chops because he was digging up his nose. It was bad enough that Zito said that to this fan but there were many young kids (7-8 years old) standing there as well (some Red Sox fans and some A's fans).

because that sounds like something Barry would do...and if he did, don't you think it would be all over the Boston media? Oh, and I grab my "crouch" all the time, who doesn't?

Uh...two-three people said they wouldn't, and, at least ten said the Padres aren't that dumb.
