Confusing Dusty Comment

[cubbieblue12]

In the Peoria Journal Star Dusty was talking about Hank Aaron and Barry Bonds. He said this about Hammerin' Hank:"He was extremely confident. I never heard him brag one time about anything. That's true confidence right there."

 

Uh, What? :?

I love Dustyisms

Dustyisms are the only things I really miss about his tenure here.

A truly confident person doesn't need to brag. Kind of like scoring a touchdown and just handing the ball to the ref. It makes perfect sense to me.

Same thing with me-I don't really understand the confusion.

It's like when you're out on the boat and you've been fighting the fish for 45 minutes and your line breaks. But then you go out the next day and fight him for 45 minutes but this time you bring him aboard. That's confidence.

He's gone, let's move on. His legacy of destruction survives.

The confusion confuses me. Dusty has said some stupid things, but this one is dead-on.

[Derwood]

I confused that he didn't manage to work in that he was on deck for Aaron's record breaking HR

I guess someone like Ladainian Tomlinson would be a modern example.

This may be the only thing that Dusty has ever said that I understand.

Maybe the poster meant that Dusty's quotes almost never make any sense but this one does. In that sense, perhaps it IS confusing.
