PrintI promise there is no Korean music contained in the video below, or any other asian music. It's all about Gerald Motherfucking D Posey. The chosen one. He is the master AND the apprentice. If you came in here looking for hot asian girls, well, I'll oblige next time. But for now, this post is about Buster Posey.
I probably have not reached 75 words yet but that's how good Buster Posey is. His name IS worth 75 words.

REC’D AND I WOULD REC IT 1000 TIMES IF I COULD
YES
The “I’m a catcher” and Kruk’s “wow” at the end were awesome. Great work.

I had a roommate
that at times would just scream “ass to ass” apropos of nothing.
I’m glad I don’t have roommates anymore.
Proud of both my adopted son, Baggs, and my ward, Ryan LOLlis.
What I'm looking forward to.
His first walk-off.
His first walk-off against the Dodgers.
His first strike-em out, throw-em out in Dodger Stadium in B9 to clinch the division with Cain on the mound. After hitting a grand slam in T9 to go up 4-3.
His first post season hit
His first post season walk off
His first post season strike-em out, throw em out.
All after Bonds throws out the ceremonial first pitch.
And if the Giants get rid of Sabean and Bochy, we will see it sooner rather than later.

Broken
Fixed and new improved edition
And if the Giants get rid of Sabean and Bochy and remove McPenisbutter from the menu, we will all see the results sooner rather than later, along with Barry Bonds taking victory laps on “Hanging Novitizky In Effigy Night”.
On a less insane note, I’ve always viewed Bochy and his Chester Goode sidekick, Flannery as interloping outsiders whose true roots and loyalties are with the Padres, and the way that they go about their business reflects the culture of San Diego and the Padres. So damn laid back, the back of their skulls are flat.
And though they have served elsewhere; Will Clark and Matt Williams and Chris Spier and Robby Thompson have always been Giants, Roger Craig and Dusty Baker though they played mostly elsewhere, are considered “Giants”, while Frank Robinson was always considered an outsider. While Torre and Mattingly are in LA, they will always be identified with the Yankees. Bowa, always the culolnt, will always be identified as a Phillie.
I really want Steve Decker running this team ASAP. I loved him as a player, even though he was a scrubini mostly. Old enough to know the codes and run the clubhouse and be a traditionalist, young enough to have the respect and be understood by the newer generation of players born in the 80s.

Some knowledge of his beliefs about stragetgies and tactics would be nice.
Just as a sort of idea of whether he knows Jack or not, y’know? Winning records prove nothing (see “Anderson, Sparky”), nor does success at coaching individual players, whether batters or hitters. A belief in “small ball” or “big-inning ball” is the single most determining factor in an untried manager’s likely success or failure; most potential managers will, at heart, be of one or the other sort.
Sidebar: Sparky, however poor at managing, was a wonderful, pleasant, and modest fellow. I recall him lighting his pipe and remarking between puffs that it was remarkable how smart a manager can become when he has a good team.
Professional baseball analyst since 1980.
Are stragetgies like strategeries?
But seriously, I think being able to manage players/personalities is kind of important.
Creating an environment and culture where everyone is focused on the same goal enhances that team’s chances for success in any endeavor.

I love how you take 14 full games of play and use it to make Posey looked like the greatest baseball player in the history of the game. Good work. I’m not being sarcastic.
I really wish Posey were catching on a regular basis.

Hey, jct
You’re awesome!

Great job!
As far as the music goes, I think it appeals to a wider audience. I sent the link to my friends in Philly and Minnesota to whom I’ve been bragging about Buster. If it had Korean music or whatever, they would have been distracted by that and not appreciated the video as much.
Proudly adopted Aubrey Huff. You can't beat that!
I have a feeling this will be re-edited as Buster ads to his highlights
The throw to 3rd on the bunt attempt would be a candidate.

his unload time is fugging ridiculous.
I AINT HAVIN’ IT

Adopting Denny Bautista until someone tells me he's already spoken for.
Awesome
God, I wish it could be full of highlights of him just catching. Of course, that’s just crazy talk.
I feel prickishly demanding!
I couldn't be prouder of my recent adoptee - Tim Lincecum's dealer. He provides the secret fuel behind both Cy Youngs. Also, he taught Timmy the change-up.

Great job
The only way it could have been better was if you had auto-tuned Bud Selig’s draft announcement.

WELL PLAYED!
Oh my God. This is amazing. Your best one yet.
What’s the music?

I thought all of this talk about the music meant that you chose this awesome track about Posies. Kinda sorta NSFW.

Yeesh.
Can’t call that tongue – in – cheek. You’d be anatomically erroneous.

Could Buster Posey
Throw a pitch that he himself could not hit, and at that point would he cease to be Buster Posey?
Daily Gameball and Joker at GIANTSBOARD.COM
Say Hey Say Willie, that Giant Kid is Great!
were you not listening?
“im a catcher” therefore he is only willing to call said play to throw against himself, and then would have to try and hit said ball, and then catch said unhittable ball… all in a days work for baseball jesus
