The 2006 All Ridiculous Awards Ceremony Continues

Yep, it's the Clutchiest Clutch Team!

Tonight at 8pm on ESPN, see which 11 players are honored for being clutchier than other big chokers!

Watch as Major League Baseball once again says "take that, anyone who cares about objective analysis of statistics! We prefer our sample sizes small, our TV loud, and our homosexuals fla-ming!" (with apologies to John Waters).

2006 has become the year of the meaningless awards, presented by various companies. They will not stop until every player in baseball wins an award of some nature.

In the category of nicest smile while sitting on the bench, the winner is..... Bubba Crosby!

I'm assuming you didn't watch the clutchy mcClutchison fest, so:

- shocking fact: included commentary from Bill James. Bill James!
- you'll be even more shocked to learn that it consisted of about 90% orgasmic repetition of David Ortiz hits.
- However, it also inexplicably included commentary from Billy Bob Thornton.

I'm glad I didn't see it, cuz it's kinda like walking in on your mom banging the mailman.

But Bubba does have a nice smile. Thanks for noticing. ;-)

Now THOSE will be exciting.
