Oakley is a genius

Oakley sent goggles to MLB teams so when they get their playoff birth this year they will have dope goggles to get the bottles popping with. Its a great idea from an advertising stand point. shoutout on sportcenter, can be seen during interviews, I give props to Oakley for thinking of it.

When Philly and all the other teams clintched there spot in the playoffs they go into the locker room. They then proceed to pop bottles/beer/make a mess. Most players wear goggles you get in a science class but insted this year oakley sent over goggles so that a mojority of player wore those insted

There you go, that's better, first post made absolutely no sense!

But yeah, that is clever, however most definitely not genius.

i wouldn't. baseball is for fat kids, angry bros and just about anyone else that loves to watch a shitty game. not a sport, but a game.

it's actually a very fun sport you fucking dipshit. you must have no idea how fit professional baseball players really are. you're just some dickhead generalizing an entire sport/group of people because of what you perceive something you know little about to be.

you're no better than the shit-heads who rip on skiing

Correction- the most well known old baseball player.  He is in no way the best player in the history of baseball.

Hitting a pitched ball is said to be the most difficult thing to do in any sport. I'd like to see any of you baseball haters hit a curveball.

did you guys really manage to turn this into another sports hate thread? what are you, fucking 8th graders? i thought everyone chilled out and stopped thinking they were cool for talking shit on other sports when high school started.

baseball may not be your bag of chips but to try to claim it isnt demanding... i mean, hitting the ball 1 out of 3 times is a GOOD record.. try to tell me you could hit a legitimate curveball

and to preempt the coming dipshit response, no i dont play baseball, i'm just not lame enough to waste my time hating on it. get a life jesus
