Jerry Crasnick's Love Letter to Juan Pierre

Oh dear Lord.

 

Seriously, why did FJM close up shop? This article is a sports writing atrocity. Pierre goes on a 10 game hot streak and this article reads like freaking hero worship.

 

I can't wait for Crasnick to write his follow-up article when Pierre goes on a month long 4-3 bender. I'm sure it'll praise Pierre's work ethic, hustle, and heart just as much as this one does.

FJM would have written a classic demolishing that one.

I read the first paragraph and stopped. If Juan Pierre was working every hour of every day for the year he would be making 1,110 an hour.

Juan Pierre has more than 24 hours in his day!

For some reason, this made me LOL:

 

Pierre is from Louisiana, and Hudson hails from South Carolina. Pierre roots for the LSU Tigers, while Hudson cheers for the South Carolina Gamecocks. They've talked about baseball and hashed out their college football differences over fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, candied yams and collard greens at Roscoe's House of Chicken 'N Waffles in Los Angeles.

They're both from the south? I mean, what are the odds that 2 players on the same team would be from the same region of the country? I'll ask Crasnick to use his math skills, since he made that whole $8/hr deduction.
