A couple of amusing gifs in no particular order:





Sweet sassy molassy! Now as you know, Strange Brew is narrowly regarded as a fair and balanced, if grammatically incorrect, news source. With that in mind, I have two statements I’d like to make on Abner Uribe’s actions last night:
Official Statement: The Dean Wormer statement.

Obviously this isn’t how you want to handle yourself on a professional baseball field. Abner has always been an emotional guy, but he took it a step too far. Disrespectful, childish, unprofessional. Pat Murphy in the postgame said it was unacceptable, and it is. Murphy said he was embarrassed by it, I’m sure he was. Not only does it reflect poorly on Abner and the franchise, he’s also putting his teammates in harms way today. I would imagine at least one high-profile Brewer is going to get plunked this afternoon in response to this. Not to mention, things are going pretty well for the Brewers right now! Why screw with that?? Remember about two weeks ago when Cubs centerfielder, Pete Crow Armstrong, had some vulgar things to say to a White Sox fan? The Cubs haven’t won since! Don’t tempt the karma gods. Stay humble. Stay focused. And for Christ sake remember that children are watching. Won’t somebody please think of the children!?!
Unofficial Statement: The Dude statement.

Did Abner take it a tad too far? Sure. But you know what? It’s sports! Sports are fun! And my instant reaction to him doling out a DX crotch chop to the Cardinals’ dugout was that I laughed out loud. I gasped, but I laughed. This isn’t life or death, this isn’t the Geneva Conventions, everybody needs to relax. Baseball will always police itself and I’m sure someone is getting one high-and-tight today, but that’s it. Life goes on, man. This isn’t that serious. Be a little less Jon Lithgow in Footloose and a little more Kevin Bacon in Footloose.
Now I will say this, Abner is DAMN lucky that the called third strike that precipitated this stayed a strike. If that would have been overturned to a ball and he would have had to continue working the at-bat, I’m not sure what would have happened.
I also laughed out loud at Pat Murphy being on the top step of the dugout when Abner came back to the bench. Dad was PISSED. And he certainly had a right to be. Uribe apologized to the fans after the game, my guess is we all move on with our lives after this afternoon.
PS: I’m glad someone found this old video of Favre rocking a DX crotch chop:

Now that happened in the HEYDAY of the DX/WWF Era. I seem to remember that Koy Detmer was the backup QB in Philadelphia at that time and he started that game and made some similar gesture to the Packer sideline earlier in the night. That was ol’ Brett’s response. Classic!
