Classic Bonehead

If you dig through the pages of baseball history, you would be hard-pressed to find a bigger bonehead than Robin Ventura. Those that were fortunate enough to have Texas Rangers tickets that day witnessed a spectacular beating at the hands of old man Nolan Ryan, who headlocked poor Robin and roughed him up good. Those [...]

MLB says no water for you!

I’m not sure if this boneheaded moment goes to the Major League Baseball Association or the Chicago Whitesox, but regardless, it’s boneheaded.  As the New York Yankees entered U.S. Cellular Field the other night there were two signs posted that read: “NO BOTTLED WATER ON THE BENCH.” Huh?  No bottle water? What?  Apparently, Gatorade is [...]

Manny Ramirez being… Manny Ramirez

This little story kinda flew under the radar, but it was surely a boneheaded moment.  In Wednesdays game between the Red Sox and Athletics, Manny Ramirez drove a ball deep to center field.  He immediately flung his bat and stood on homeplate admiring his “to be” homerun ball.  He kept his arms out posing like [...]

We love Larry Bowa

Classic Larry Bowa took place in LA last night. This guy is awesome. 2nd game of the MLB season and he’s not even the manager. He is the 3rd base coach for the Dodgers. Ed Montague gave him a warning to “stay in the box” over at 3rd and he was like, “No.” Before you [...]

Rays and Yanks fighting, kinda

In SPRING TRAINING!  Settle down guys, the season hasn’t even started yet.  Apparently the Yanks weren’t real pleased with a hard play at the plate and have complained about the D-Rays “aggressive play”.  Well, Shelly Duncan slid hard into 2nd base with his spikes pointed towards the guys dome.  Not smart! So obviously the Devilrays [...]

Extreme fan rivalries

Not much to write about this as it’s all found here in this link.  But cmon Red Sox fans – quit being boneheads and giving all your fans a bad name!

Spezio acts up and cut by Cards

As much as this hurts to say… Scott Spezio is a sports bonehead!  The Orange County district attorney charged Scotty with misdemeanor counts of: driving under the influence driving under the influence with a blood alcohol content of .08 percent or more hit and run aggravated assault assault and battery That’s it? That’s all you [...]

Hunter Pence gets cut walking through glass door

Are you serious with this? Houston Astros RF Hunter Pence was getting out of his hot tub in his spring training home to use the bathroom.  He claims to have left the door open.  He apparently did not notice that a friend had shut the door, and sure enough, BAM, he crashed into the glass [...]

Jay Gibbons and Jose Guillen suspended 15 games for HGH use

Here we go, let the suspensions begin!  A number of major leaguers have been accused of taking HGH, but baseball didn’t ban the substance until January 2005.  Players like Troy Glaus, Gary Matthews Jr., Rick Ankiel, and Scott Schoeneweis were let off the hook, because even if they did get shipments of the stuff, it [...]

LaRussa passes out behind the wheel

Revisiting a story from early in the year, St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa pleaded guilty to a DUI Wednesday. Eight months ago, LaRussa was found asleep in his truck at a stoplight in Florida during spring training. The bonehead passed out at the wheel with his truck in drive and his foot on the [...]
