Sorry about the late thread
It’s not my day, but I don’t think anyone else is threading today.

The clubhouse thing? I didn’t know about it. Is this a thing that began after he became a Giant?
There are plenty of men who put on acts to get girls. It is no different when someone who is famous does it.

Yes, it’s stuff he was doing in the Giants clubhouse while talking to the reporter for the article.
A lot of A’s fans loved him for his off-kilter persona, so to hear him spell out how he faked all the different elements of it… rather sucks.

1. Woonsocket, RI. I hire a lotta people from there. Seems like not a very nice place. I think I would prefer to visit Swoonrocket.
2. HR Lady Schmifty says NOOO PINCHING BUTTS IN THE WORKPLACE PLEASE. No harassment cases. I haven’t yet learned what you’re supposed to do with them. So for now, we just can’t have them.
3. YAY SUX LOSE YAAAAY. Normally, to offend the Sux-loving neighbors, I fire up “New York, New York” on my laptop and aim the speakers out the front windows. But that’s not exactly relevant this time. I will have to think of something else.
