I think it would have been funner if he got down with a bat and "skinned" Bryce Harper's uniform off of him.

Repressed hostility toward his teammates???

[Reliever J. P.] Howell was most impressed with [Fernando] Rodney when he closed out the Rays' 1-0 win in Boston on April 16. That's when Rodney first started his post-save routine of pretending to shoot a bow and arrow into the sky. Rodney says he does it because, like the Yankees and Red Sox, the Rays can play nine innings and "make something happen." "I love it, it pumps me up," Howell said.

Said [pitching coach Jim] Hickey: "It's like he's shooting an arrow up to the heavens. And he might be doing that, who knows?"

I saw this for the first time the other night. Bizarre.

Wow, what a bunch of really tough guys!

I live in a part of Colorado that is overrun with elk on an annual basis, including some large bulls that prompt loud crying from the local hunters because they cannot be hunted within city limits. I've proposed that we allow hunting of these bull elks within the city, but the only weapon allowed would be a 2x4 with up to 3 nails in it. Let's make it sporting for all parties concerned.

If we can televise the proceedings, I bet we could get some sponsorship for the wood and nails.
