That picture makes me irrationally happy

[Clem Fandango]

Is that Almora? He looks like a behemoth next to Javy.

[Guest]

Pretty sure it's Rizzo.

[Guest]

Yeah, it's definitely Rizzo.

[jersey cubs fan]

Almora? Really?

[Clem Fandango]

Makes sense, but the last picture of Rizzo I saw he looked like a clean shaven, baby faced cherub.

Maybe he doesn't shave everyday.

Maybe he doesn't shave everyday.

 

Or maybe I haven't memorized every player's side profiles. Either or.

Those people all look the same to me.

 

Baseball players, that is.

 

Rizzo could help by going back to his pube-'do.

[Guest]

I can see the Rizzo/Almora resemblance but yeah, he'd have to be like a mini version.

[Sammy Sofa]

It's the hair coupled with Almora and Baez looking way too honkie-ish for having names that fiery and passionate.

Honky hispanics throw everyone for a loop. If you met me, your mind would be blown. Nobody can ever guess wtf I am.

 

I can't count how many times I heard, "but you don't look Mexican??" as a kid (I'm not Mexican).

[Sammy Sofa]

Man, I'd be pissed if that happened to me. Mainly because:

i don't get it

[Sammy Sofa]

[Sammy Sofa]

I'm talking non-white dudes who look white. I feel for them.

[Guest]

Meh. We're about as white as you get. I have blue eyed blonde haired cousins.

 

It's best of both worlds, really...because this [expletive] is thoroughly good

[expletive] THAT. He's right, but it's not right. Less white people = better.

[Guest]

And now I'm just watching Louis CK clips.
