Yep...

The last ten seconds of this clip just about says it all.

Agreed

There's nothing on the internet more depraved than that video.

That videos a fake

He's actually playing a game on the computer "Counter Strike: Source". However, the subtitles were put in to make it appear as though he was talking about the cubs but if you know German, it's pretty clear he's not.

I'm a Jenius!

thanks for pointing that out.

I don't think anyone thought it was real - I mean, the video is months old and it's not like anyone in Germany cares about baseball - but if there was any doubt, you surely put it to rest.

You want me to post about how the Eckstein/Pierzynski wrastling thing was fake too, or have you covered that already?

You really are a jenius...

obviously it's fake, doesn't make it any less funny though.

Miller sucks.

That was not so subtly brilliant....

Really Great

I thoroughly enjoyed. It doesn't matter what the original context was, that video is great. The last 20 seconds are awesome.

Not real subtitles

You mean he isnt really talking about the Cubs?? You mean to tell me that they are lieing to us? I was deceived!!

This rant has been brought to you by the letter R and a little bit of sarcasm.

That video is absolutely hilarious and i damn near pissed my pants at work.

It has to be real!

I mean after all, the Cubs signed Ramirez, DeRosa, Soriano, Lilly and Marquis all on the same day in a 5 minute period.

Miller sucks.

Jason Marquis

The Jason Marquis line really makes the whole thing worthwhile.

by Gone Streaking on Dec 21, 2006 1:20 PM EST reply actions

the

whole time I was watching that I was looking forward to what he'd do when he got to the Marquis signing. Seemed about right, I'm pretty sure we'd all have broken keyboards if the Cards had signed Marquis for 3/$21 mil.

On another note, I don't know if he's playing CS or UT or what but I would say the reason he's screaming is cause he's getting destroyed, and he's getting destroyed because he can't keep his hands on the controls for more than 5 seconds at a time.

Now the story of a wealthy family who lost everything, and the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together...it's Arrested Development.

What is the game?

Any game that has you throwing a tantrum and nearly coming unglued sounds like a. I have a mental problem, b. I have no life, or c. sounds like fun! That is if you are the one destroying and making that kid (see A.). Is it like Knights of Honor or something?
