So I'm brushing up on my Pudge history for this stupid story that is going to be over 10,000 words again and is not going to be a simple light-hearted porno jaunt like I had originally wanted, fuck, and I run across this gem of an article (unattributed because it's an AP story, but someone had to write it, it didn't spontaneously generate itself ( Read more... )

Gleeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. *evil hand rubs*

with piercing eyes as the Atlantic Ocean crashed on the beach and dusk led to orange, yellow and shades of gray to fill the sky.

it's like the reporter was saying, "Dammit, I was a creative writing major and this is what I ended up doing! Fuck my life!"

BTW, I used your fic to convert someone to baseball. \o/

I also found this interesting:

Is the 37-year-old star known as Pudge on the list of 104 players who tested positive for steroids during baseball's 2003 survey?

"Only God knows," Rodriguez said softly.

Hrrrrrmmmm. HRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Right. Presumably you would know, Pudge... maybe he means he was taking one of those supplements that may or may not cause a positive to show up, even though it's not 'technically' a steroid? Or maybe he's just an idiot. Either way.

LOL. I think I just pulled something, and it's only 6:30.

I had a similar reaction. Reading along, doop de doo, dry biography after dry biography, and then WHAM, ~*~imagery~*~.

That is ....

I want to go with AWESOME, but just can't bring myself to do it.

(It kind of is, though.)

americanleaguer July 2 2009, 18:58:04 UTC

It's awesome if they stuck it in there just for the hell of it. If someone thought they were being brilliant and deep, then it's... I don't even know. Something skirting the edges of awesome...

starfishchick July 2 2009, 20:34:33 UTC

I kind of have to wonder if they did it to see if anyone would notice? HEH.

Golden. I think we need more of this in every AP story. Just to keep us on our toes.

That thing reads like it was fabricated. Hah!
