You will be missed, Mr. Metcalf

As Rodney said in the comments of Adam's announcement that Travis Metcalf has been designated for assignment, I was not snickering, instead, I was very mournful for a fallen Ranger.

I therefore did the only thing I could think of to ease the pain, I made him a heartfelt tribute video:

Go in peace, Travis, buddy, you were one of the good guys. And who knows, pal, maybe we'll meet again. Mike Young does have eight other fingers to possibly break.

You know, like you can have a double-header in one day. And still collect 8 RBIs

Holy shit...

I rarely actually laugh out loud with anything on the net, but when he swung that bat and you could hear Vince McMahon say “you’re fired” I laughed my ass off. Completely unexpected. Well done.
