ROFL at 50 cent first pitch
 

Like the guys on ESPN said, come on man have some self respect, practice a few throws if you know you are going out there.

he doesn't need to practice shit. he's rich!

poor boy he sucks

He wouldn't have made 50 cent playing baseball.

He selected his career wisely.

He actually looked embarrassed

:1orglaugh

Although it appears Half Dollah can swing a bat better than he throws a ball... :winkwink:



:stoned

ADG

what's with the commentator's pronunciation of 'just'? I thought that was for effect when I've heard it in films - that would drive me fucking mental if that's really how they commentate...

american tv in general would drive me nuts when i look at CNN. Hyped up presenters giving non-news all day long, guys with radio voices talking the way that commentator talks and all women have whiny bone-sawing nasal voices. Ugh.

"Been hit with a few shots, but I don't walk with a limp (although I sure throw with one)"

:1orglaugh

Bet that wasn't done on the first take. You don't get a second chance when throwing out the first pitch.

He looks like damon wayans playin a twink and throwin like a girl. :1orglaugh
his herb is fine though.

Is he such twirk? what trow is this lol

How is it possible to miss by that much? :)

A 10 year old girl could throw better

I'm as big a baseball fan as it gets, i've never understood why anyone ever gives a shit about the first pitch of the game though.

Nice tradition, a gesture etc perhaps?

Why would Mets have him pitching though:

hate the music, but cant hate his swag, guess a geniuses business man for the most part.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

All muscles!

That's American tradition in baseball.

It's similar to when the umpire goes "streeeeeeee-ike!"

It's hype, but it's part of what people expect and actually like.

Looks like he passed by a HUGE Baseball career...

Yeah it was actually started by an announcer / comedian named Bob Uecker

:2 cents::1orglaugh:1orglaugh

This is what happens when you grow up without a father.

...and former catcher! ;-)

Oh damn!! That embarrassing though

Didn't they have that cat that saved the kid from the dog the other week do it as well ??

Crazy as it sounds...

That kind of slang comes from the days when baseball and sports in general were not on TV but broadcast over the radio. The Announcers would do things like that to juice up the entertainment value. It's carried over to TV as sort of a cultural thing.

This is a good spot to drop a couple Andres Cantor youtubes

real newz good lord

There goes his "street cred" lol

This must not mean the same thing in England as it does in America. No way could I put up with listening to that as part of standard commentary practice :helpme

not impressive at all.i'd trow that ball much better!

Maybe he was on drugs, we all know drugs are bad for brain and brain controls your moves. Something was "out of the order" during that moment :)
