ROFL! Humor, baseball player-style
Just heard on the Dodgers-Reds game that Josh Fogg won a $1,500 bet from Ken Griffey Jr., and Junior paid off in pennies — 150,000 of 'em. Total weight, 960 pounds.

Fogg said he was gonna take 'em to the bullpen and count 'em to make sure Junior didn't short-change him.



:rofl:

4. Most of them are excruciatingly juvenile
But, once in a while... :D



Oh — you've read "Ball Four," right? Remember the one when Fred Talbot hit a grand slam and that guy won $25,000 on "Home Run for the Money"?
