No kissing in baseball. Ass slapping, fist bumping, back slapping and high fives. Handshakes are best. No kissing. Ever.

Heartless Aztec বলেছেন...

Unless the catcher is hot.

It's the Latino players. In honor of two new superstars ,the Braves have started wearing Los Bravos jerseys. Ronald Acuna and Ozzie Albies have them 4 games behind the Dodgers for the best record in the National league. Albies translates the post game interviews for Acuna. And the are close friends like this clip shows. They seem to be excited to be playing in the majors at age 21 and 22.

Yellich might be the best player in the game.

Although my choice is Joey Votto.

Nobody's having a career year with the Cubs. Too many dead spots in the lineup.

Starting pitching old and on its last legs.

Shouting Thomas বলেছেন...

Althouse's usual taunting of hetero men as faggots in play here.

She never tires of that one.

Just get on with the double penetration. Nobody's stopping you.

Spoiler alert... if the men are kissing each other, they probably won't fuck you.

JML বলেছেন...

He was just fucking with him.

That's two comments in the first 10 that uses the "f" word. Ann Althouse: Encouraging the debasement of the english language...

Slap-ass!

That is all

Calm yourself, Shouts. It's not like Arcia slipped him tongue. If necessary, we can provide you a 1-800 number if you're seeking support or resources after this triggering "homoerotic" incident. Operators are standing by.

Nothing like a hot, sweaty beard against one's sweet lips.

"Although my choice is Joey Votto"

Has been. Not even average. Not even the best on the Reds. The only thing he tops baseball in is being a dick.

After living in Spain for five years, I adopted the Spanish "besos dobles" form of greeting women (or women greeting women and men) - more like cheek to cheek air kisses on each cheek - and got so accustomed to it I naturally continued the practice without thinking when I returned to the US, as did my wife. Turns out that was a bad habit in a sexually uptight society like the US, particularly with the "metoo" movement and radical feminist hysteria. A couple of women I had known for years reacted like I just raped them. I laughingly apologized and broke myself of the habit after a few weeks. I miss Spain.

"besos dobles"

Top of the 1st last night, Castellanos dobled on a line drive to center fielder Lorenzo Cain. That left Castellanos standing on 2nd beso.

Meade বলেছেন...

Castellanos would've liked to score, I'm sure. But he didn't even make to 3rd base. Just as well—#MeToo would've taken a dim view.

It's not the faggotry, Meade, heavens to Faggotroyd, no! We're all just distracted wondering if Ann likes it up the ass.

Meade বলেছেন...

Your mother's name is Ann?

Ray বলেছেন...

I think the kiss was a joke, a tease. In many Italian families cheek kisses are common among men. I assume other Latin people men cheek kissing is common. (Italians are incorrectly excluded from being Latino.)

In some churches, a Holy Kiss is common for everyone.

"We're all just distracted wondering if Ann likes it up the a**."

A comment too far. Offensive.

In Althouse's case, she needs to suck it up and take it.

The faggot taunting she does all the time... well, she's welcome to it. I know it's been her standard form of flirtation all her life...

But, if she wants to dish that shit out, she's got no bitch.

Meade বলেছেন...

That's right. Bitching has always been your thing, Steve. Yours and Nichevo's. Bitchevos.

traditionalguy বলেছেন...

Hey. It's baseball played by young men. Why turn this normal show of affection between friends into a Gay Guys being caught smooching issue?

Shouting Thomas বলেছেন...

@Meade

I'm sure the faggot taunting as a form of flirtation is charming in person. I've known women who are pretty artistic in using this.

It must lose something when it's set out in print.

It's kinda boorish and obnoxious on this forum.

Ray বলেছেন...

The comment was made to Meade. Most of the harsh stuff he says is in defense of his wife. If someone said that about my wife, no matter what she said, I'd split their lip. Call me old fashion.

John Ray বলেছেন...

Meade at 9:20

Meade at 9:41

Wins the thread!

Mark বলেছেন...

Bitching has always been your thing

Girls -- the right answer is that there is no crying in baseball. No crying.

Shouting Thomas বলেছেন...

Beating up people over your wife's sexuality is pretty stupid.

Let's be real. A lot of married women aren't totally monogamous. Some like orgies and double teaming.

This seems like the frontier of sexual liberation that incenses everybody.

Women don't become saints when they get married. And a lot of husbands are OK with that.

Shouting Thomas বলেছেন...

And, in my experience, when a woman engages in this faggot taunting form of flirtation, she's floating a question:

"Will you go to the orgy or fuck other men with me?"

Ray বলেছেন...

Go directly at Althouse. She's a feminist, if she wants to mix it up then she deserves an equal response. Say something about my wife, no matter her past, I'll split your lip. Assault charges, or I'd probably get beat up, as I haven't thrown a punch in 40 years, that would be my response. Don't care. What happens between me and my wife is sacred to me.

Shouting Thomas বলেছেন...

What happens between me and my wife is sacred to me.

Well, that's you and you're entitled to that.

Everybody's not like that.

Ray বলেছেন...

Look, your entitled to your opinion. I, mine. I just responded that attacking Ann through her husband I find offensive. Go at her. I actually laugh at some of your comments.

Just sticking my nose into something that doesn't involve me (or I much care about), but it seems to me that what is offensive is treating a guy as if he is not man enough to defend himself and needs your help in doing it.

Ray বলেছেন...

Bullshit. I have no judgement on Meade. He seems to defend Ann quite well. I just said "I" find that offensive. My immediate response, if we were standing around is a split lip. Just MY response. Meade's is Meade's. I have no judgement of him. I'd probably be wrong for using violence.
"Sticking my nose", funny. It's a comment thread. It appears quite public.

Narr বলেছেন...

Crankies this morning! No more staying up late for you kids.

I thought the clip was hilarious (rare for the Prof's selections, but I endeavor to persevere) and sweet-- and I can't see why it seems so provocative.

But I'm basically an asportsual . . . athletics was not a big deal in my family life, and sports was never encoded in me as something specific to masculinity and manliness. It was something a lot of people got into as players or connoisseurs, but I never saw what the hoopla was about.

OTOH dork football with my friends is a favorite memory

Ray বলেছেন...

Having played college baseball, it's part of locker room antics. It's done to get a reaction. Like a "Wet Willy", or farting in your cupped hand and placing it under someone's nose. It's actually makes for team cohesion if done in a playful manner. Hard to understand from the outside, but for twenty year old's, playing a game, it's normal.

Mark বলেছেন...

Let's all just stay in our lane.

They seem to be excited to be playing in the majors at age 21 and 22.

Last year, during an after game interview, Manager Brian Snitker was asked about what happens when Acuna gets tired.

"He doesn't get tired. He gets sleepy".

Wince বলেছেন...

"There is kissing in baseball."

Maybe get Arnold Palmer's wife to kiss their baseballs.

Snopes: ‘I Kiss His Balls for Luck’

A similar legend has been attributed to a variety of baseball play-by-play announcers, most notably former Cardinals pitcher Dizzy Dean:

Myth has it that during a camera shot of lovers smooching in the bleachers, the late CBS baseball broadcaster Dizzy Dean remarked to partner Pee Wee Reese, “Look at that, Pee Wee, he kisses her on the strikes, and she kisses him on the balls.”
