The intro sequence to Unsolved Mysteries was much better. Three sentences appeared in a white simple font over a black screen as an overly serious narrator read them. The first sentence, “This program is about unsolved mysteries.”, surely disappointed the 0.01% of the viewership who was expecting a show titled Unsolved Mysteries to be a drama centered around the day to day affairs of scantily clad Los Angeles County lifeguards.
Edwin also does his home run trot as if he is on a NASCAR track with a steep bank. Perhaps the palsied T-Rex is how he tries to maintain balance as he leans into the corners?

That is some incredible arm placement. I’m glad “stroking a dongpiece” is something that people write.

Another post about the Blue Jays, Carson? Good lord, man.
I’ve certainly noticed Edwin’s bat flip this season, it’s a beauty, but this T-Rex business is news to me. And quite accurate, actually.

He’s been doing it all season as some sort of inside joke between him and Bautista

The joke being people actually thinking Toronto has a shot at the post season.

Many basketball players do the palsied wrist thing when they make a three-pointer. They think it’s a cool pose or something.

I like this “Ross.” I think he should post here.

That was my first thought as well, though Penitentiary Face raised his left arm, thus completely rendering the aesthetic comparison moot.

I’ve been loving this all year, it’s just what he does. I do it now every time I hit a home run in house league. Just submit to the palsy

A home run — that should the last time anyone refers to that thing as anything but a “dongpiece.”
Squee says:

Agreed. I want to see straight-faced news reporters talk about who stroked a dongpiece in the World Series.

As a team, nobody else watches home runs for longer or flips their bats higher than the Jays. Swagger, they have it.

If a homer is a dongpiece, what anatomical words can be used for other baseball plays?

The man’s on pace to 50 dongpieces so as far as I’m concerned he can look as queer as he wants to doing it.
Off topic: EE on pace to 50, Bautista no pace to 56 dongpieces. When’s the last time a team had (2) 50 dongpiecers?

That’s the only way we score runs.

This is precisely why you must drop it like it’s hot – in the event it may actually be hot.
