I guess Pujols doesn’t like getting ripped by the media lol.

I guess he lives in the South Florida area during the offseason or something. My ex said she used to see him a lot back home. She said he would get mad when people would try to come up to him, or get autographs, and that he just seemed like an asshole all the time.[/quote]

Pujols gonna Puj

Most profesional athletes, actors, and musicians are huge assholes IRL with exceptions.

It really doesn’t surprise me that Pujols is a jerkoff to his fans, he probably gets stopped several times a day while in public. Not an excuse, but I’m sure it gets old fast.

When you make ridiculous sums of money, are worshipped by the masses it is probably hard as fuck to not turn into an arrogant asshole.

lol at the gif.

oh Pujols. Such an attractive man.

until he takes his hat off. YIKES.

Agreed. I would probably get tired of it too. Not baseball related, but that’s one reason I like Tim Tebow so much. I was here at UF for his last 2 years here, and I saw him around campus all the time. Any time someone stopped him or wanted to talk to him, he was always friendly, and he seemed genuinely happy to do it, every time. I read articles about how he is in Denver, and they pretty much say the same things. I would say he’s probably even more recognizable and famous than Albert Pujols, and not only does he not mind the attention… I genuinely believe that he truly appreciates it and is humbled by it.

Anyway can Pujols top last night with a 4 HR game tonight? (He probably could)

Ahhh, Napoli catching, Moreland at first, Young DH, and everything goes well. Thank you Wash.

Awesome performance by Holland. That was a perfect way to spend my Sunday evening. Wow.

<--------- Neutral fan who is getting nervous watching CJ Wilson pitch.

It was painful watching LaRussa manage today.

Rangers 2011 WS Champions

2011 WS MVP: Tony LaRussa

Those bullpen moves by LaRussa were hilarious. Bringing Lynn in just to intentionally walk a guy, haha damn. Miscommunication with the bullpen, this late in the season, in the biggest game so far, is unexcusable.

LOL at Carpenter talking shit to Napoli like he just struck him out on three pitches right after Napoli barely missed taking him yard.

C.J. was extremely lucky to only give up two runs.

Edit: Craig trying to steal second, both times, was horrible with Pujols up.

John Lackey out for 2012.

haha Lackey sucks. I can’t imagine one Red Sox fan being upset about that.

Soo now it comes out that Albert Pujols, NOT LaRussa arguably the greatest manager of our generation, called the hit and run in the seventh when Craig got thrown out. And he didn’t even swing. What the Fuck is going on with that team? Why would the greatest manager of our generation allow one of his players to make a call like that in such a big game, even if it is Pujols.

Why would Pujols even think about a hit and run forcing himself to possibly have to swing at a shitty pitch to hit a freaking grounder to the right side when he should be just looking for a ball to hammer over the wall? Wow.

It was dumb, but honestly that wasn’t even close to the dumb shit LaRussa and Washington were doing last night.

The obvious bullpen mismanagement by LaRussa, but also Ron Washington’s 4 intentional walks were ridiculous. Intentionally walking the tie/go ahead run on base is beyond stupid. I think Washington was very fortunate it did not cost him.

Rangers basically got lucky last night in game 5.

Wooooooooooow.

Is anybody else watching this?

Are you fucking kidding me with the Freese hit?

I already had the remote in my hand ready to turn the tv off and go to bed Ugly inning by Feliz.

That game just took 10 years off my life. Ogando has sucked balls in the World Series, Wash needs to stop putting him in. Oliver was also a huge mistake. So many stupid errors on both teams. AHHHHHHHHHH can’t believe the Rangers lost. I can’t even watch the postgame.

omg…that…was…crazy. I cant sleep now.

What. The. Fuck.

Just finished watching the game, recorded it.

MIND = BLOWN

This has been an amazing WS.

Cardinals are acting like they just won the WS -lol

I can’t sleep either… and I’m not even a fan of either of these teams.
