This doesn’t exactly dispel the notion that Hillenbrand is one weird dude. “It’s like Dr. Doolittle,” Hillenbrand says. “We have animals everywhere. If you don’t get along you can’t stay.”
Well, maybe. But did Doolittle ever come home to find one of his miniature horses in the kitchen, munching carrots out of the refrigerator? And how many times did Doolittle’s pig get into the house through the doggy door? Or what about the time Jessica, home alone in bed with a horrible cold, had a goat named Willie Mays jump over a wall, find its way into the house and urinate on her sheets.
“And goats pee,” Shea adds helpfully, “for like a minute and half straight. They don’t hold back.”

1. Yeaarrgghhhh Posted: January 01, 2008 at 04:36 PM (#2657891)Edit: Actually, that probably isn't fair to the animals.
The answer to the question: How is a goat like a sleet-drenched Redskins fan after 3 beers and a cup of so-called hot chocolate, wandering around the parking lot at FedEx Field trying to find his car after the Skins go up on the Cowboys 27-3 ?
Not that I have any personal experience or anything.
This is why people with image problems magically appear in fluff pieces like the the above when they need a job.
I'd think to pee for a minute and a half straight they'd have to have held back for quite a while.
Moises Alou is already placing an order for an entire herd.
You know, Wok, there ARE websites that cater to people like you.
Or so I hear...
...stealing pages from the Derek Bell playbook don't help either. When you have a near entire career of pretty shitty offensive production - then hit 254/275/325, but for a division leading team - ######## about your playing time and demanding to be moved doesn't endear you to many fans either.
So Shea's got a career at PETA when GMs finally tire of wasting at-bats on his hacktastic crapbat... good for him. Doesn't make him any more or any less a #########.
Arizona TV stations are reporting that the 3 year old boy is Shea Hillenbrand's son.
I hope the kid is fine.
Thanks to McCray & TAP over at DBBP for the tip.
