Rant : Manny Ramirez's helmet

Post by wart57 »

Sereously, why the hell do you need that much pine tar, and to me covering the logo on the helmet is a sign of disrespect for that team.

I know I am am crazy and off base, but it really pisses me off when I see those nasty helmets....

I feel the same way. Since he just got there, he must have gone out of his way to mess up the helmet. Glad he's not wearing the birds on the bat.

there are a good number of players who do this.

Orlando Cabrera is infamous for it.

Thought this was just a rant against the wearer of said helmet. I would have really enjoyed & joined in ranting about that a$$ ....er person.

But still, I agree with this rant.

I know I am old fashioned, but I like baseball players to wear uniforms that fit, with the stirrups socks showing. I also want them wearing a clean cap with a rounded, not flat brim, and a clean batting helmet.
