Ichiro’s F***ing Pep-Talk
July 15, 2008 – 4:23 pm by California Correspondent
Have you ever wondered why the American League tends to win every All-Star Game? It’s a surprise for us to learn that the AL All-stars have revealed their secret weapon: Ichiro Suzuki’s pre-game pep talk.
According to Yahoo Sports, “Every year, after the AL manager addresses his team, Ichiro bursts from his locker, a bundle of kinetic energy, and proceeds, in English, to disparage the National League with an H-bomb of F-bombs, stunning first-timers who had no idea Ichiro speaks the queen’s language fluently and making returnees happy that they had played well enough to see the pep talk again.” “It’s why we win,” David Ortiz said.
I am personally willing to buy a 3G iPhone for whoever can sneak into the locker room and capture Ichiro’s pep-talk on video. [Hat tip to Brian for pointing me to the story]

Oh, my God…
I can barely talk for laughing.
I’m going to have the visual stuck in my head all day.
It’s like the guy from Major League Two - the samurai who nobody understood - “YOU HAVE NO MARBLES!!!”

Why the hell are the paparazzi spending time looking for more Britney Spears crotch shots when they could be sneaking in to videotape this awesomeness instead?
