Miguel Cabrera has always been one of the most carefree ballplayers. Always up for a good prank, always friendly, and goofing around. Definitely enjoys himself and is enjoyable to watch
Contrary to certain cliches, one good apple unfortunately doesn't make any bad apples better. Baseball is still rotten like any other sport. Full of self important, self promoting, immature arses.
Envious. You're envious. Jealousy is when you don't want someone else to have what you have, and envy is wanting what someone else has. Lisa Simpson taught me that. What a world, huh?
There's a lot of this in the NBA but people complain they're too buddy buddy now days because they don't try to take each other heads off like they did in the old days.
@@Blubrry-dx8qn Rowing because I get to beat the shit out of my teammates with a paddle if they suck. I don't ever want to be in the presence of weakness.
To anybody who doesnt know: Joey Votto is not a mean jerk. He just likes acting like it on road games. Hes the ultimate shit head ball player. He doesn't get interviewed very much anymore because he would almost never give a legit interview early in his career. He'd spend the whole time joking around and making fun of the interviewers by not taking their time seriously. Look up his "mountie interview". Dude does an entire 8 minute interview straight faced dressed as a Canadian Mountie. By this point he was already a 4x all star, gold glove, and NL MVP. Gotta love it
Too many people being too serious in life. Life is too short for that, gotta have some fun still, and if that means "acting like kids", as long as you're not acting like a spoiled one, go nuts!
@@zachiswayposi1 bruh just because he died doesn’t mean god didn’t love him and meant for it to happen lol. As bad as it sounds for someone to die, it was just their time! God def loved him cause he can’t complain about being able to play baseball for a living and earn millions!
This how sports should be played. Definitely need more of this going on. Life is too short not to have fun. We focus on the wrong things in life. Hopefully folks can wake up and realize that before it's too late.
Instead we get more stupid rules that don't really cut much time off the game anyways, continued streaming blackouts, and some inane bullshit about Mike Trout's Q score. Thanks, Rob.
@@swilhelm3180 idk if its testosterone to blame. women fight/compete with each other too. just not physically the majority of the time. I think its stress that brings the bad out
I was there for that Joey Votto game! It was about the 5th attempt at getting the paper plane on the field and it landed right next to first base. Everyone started cheering when he walked up to it and booed when he stomped on it.
Seeing goodwill in sports with millions of dollars on the line is very heartwarming. Incredible how powerful this is to watch. I wonder if the players know the impact they have sometimes. Not so much when the do something bad but stuff like this affects people profoundly. Also its a great example for children in how to compete and care for your competitor at the same time. Because in 40 years when you think back, you'll remember the goodwill far more than the competition. And if you don't you need therapy. :)
@@thisoldnew4544 if you need a leader to show you how to act like a nice person, then, you are not a nice person. Why do you need a leader? Can't you take responsibility for your own behavior? PS - Let's go, Brandon!
Miguel Cabrera is so funny! You can tell he truly enjoys playing, and making the fans feel worth paying their money in games. We all know these games are expensive 🥵
I'm a diehard Indians fan and never saw that exchange between Jason Kipnis and Rougned Odor. I was laughing so hard but also don't know how I missed it
When is Adrian Beltre going to be a commentator on TV. Nothing would be more entertaining. Notice that some of the best and funniest players are Dominican.
The fake fall at home after HBP reminds of going to the plate when one of my players got hit. If it's in a meaty area, there isn't much worry, or anything you can do for them. Tried a lot of stuff, the freeze sprays, etc, nothing helps except time, & getting their minds off it. To that end, when a player got hit anywhere other than the legs & went down, I go out to the plate, and ask, "Where'd it hit ya?", (already knowing the answer.) I'd get a groan, my triceps, my side, etc. I would deadpan, loud enough for only the ump & catcher to hear, 'Well, why the hell you layin' on the ground, didn't hit your leg.' This always cracked up the ump, then the catcher would chuckle; by the time the player had a chance to realize what I'd said, & spin his head towards me, I wait a beat, then give them a big grin & offer my hand, 'Come on, get up, so you get the applause.' They would, & did. By the time I walked 'em to 1st base, we were laughing & they were threatening me w/ all kinds of pay back. Funny thing was, the bruise was never acknowledged 'til after the game, when I'd bring them an ice bag. Half the time they'd look at me, then remember, Oh, yeah...
Should've included the moment where Francisco Lindor was messing with one of his former teammates as they were playing each other CLE and CHI in the World Series several years ago.
Baseball, more than any other sport, has a lot of this kind of thing going on. Lots of down time and lots of fun trash talk going on during every break.
