Yankee Ugly?
The Phoenix, out of Boston, has released their “100 unsexiest men in the world” list. Randy Johnson made # 2:
2. Randy Johnson: If he couldn’t throw a ball 100 miles per hour, Johnson would be wearing a wife beater and getting hauled into a squad car on Cops. Could you imagine the nights when he pitched to Otis Nixon?
They’ve also listed Big Stein at # 71 and Godzilla Matsui at # 91.
Funny, David Ortiz, who would be a pimple on the butt of ugly if ugly was a living entity, didn’t make the cut. Shocking, huh?
And, am I wrong, or, is Manny Ramirez looking more and more like something stuck in Bob Marley’s arm pit hair these days? Yet, he’s not on the list.
Also, Trot Nixon looks like the son of the banjo player from Deliverance. But, he missed the list too.
I guess you’re only noticeable when you have “New York” written across your chest.





That’s funny just because of how transparent it is. Boston’s sophomoric provincialism and pathetic inferiority complex continue to keep them from being recognized as a major city. They are second tier all the way.
I don’t think either Hideki Matsui nor David Ortiz is particularly ugly. Nor Manny, if only he would wash, trim his hair, and put on a uniform that fit him.
Randy Johnson and George Steinbrenner on the other hand…
My wife thinks Matsui isn’t bad looking (not stunning or anything, but not bad). Then again, she has questionable taste in men.
Okay, I will delurk as this is finally a subject I can speak authoratively to . . . I agree with Carla, both Matsui and Ortiz could be kinda attractive given the right lighting and a shot or two. But Randy . . .
And that hopbitters, he’s a handsome fella.
Red Sox Nation never fails to boggle the mind.
Irish whisky will do that to you, J&W.
