The Post Game Victory Miggy-Prince Congragulatory Thingee Thing

[tinselwolverine]

Hey, how do we figure out how to do that with each other on line?

It's like, cool as shit...

And DOOOOON'T tell me we'll jinx them if we do it on line; I can't believe fans at Comerica aren't already doing it after home game victories with each other...

 

[kalinecountry]

maybe one of the guys who knows how, can make one of those .Gifs that plays over and over with the celebration.

 

[tonyballs]

A couple of my buddies and i have stolen the celebration at work when we cross paths. People that don't have a clue think we're nuts..lol.

I don't know how to do the gif thingee, but a person can hit the play arrow thingee to vie, it, and then keep hitting that little circly arrowey thingee in the lower left to keep replaying it themself.

It's kind of stupid.

 

[tonyballs]

It's kind of stupid.

Why?

It's kind of stupid.

Agreed. I've never been big on cheesy handshakes and stuff like that though.

 

[tomdalton22]

Why?

It looks like something that two 7th graders might do....it's stupid and immature.

 

[tigermud]

I don't know if I like it or not because I'm not sure what it symbolizes and or know the back story if any. what is that thing right at the end, sprinkling pixie dust or something? LOL

It's a fancy version of a high-five, it may not be the coolest thing ever, but it's far from stupid or immature.

Baaaaahhh, lighten up, buddy..

All these professional athletes from every sport do their own types of handshakes or celebration.

I swear, if you stuck a piece of coal up your ass it's coming out a diamond.

Exactly. It's part of the game now. I love it when i see them doing it.

1) It means we won the game
2) They're having fun

Not everyone is Barry Sanders and just hands the ball off to the ref, then runs with his head down to sidelines.

**For the record, i had nothing against Barry NOT celebrating either**

 

[tinselwolverine]

Now that I'm thinking about it...they could make it even better if, when they raise their arms up, they could turn around once and kind of wave their arms in the air while they're doing it, sort of like a windmill, helicoptor thingee...

 

[Mitchrapp]

Didn't Miggy and Boesch have some sort of thing at one time?

 

[kingofdetroit57]

I'm sure I'll catch hell for this, but the more I watch Fielder, the less I like him. He acts like a clown. I just watched the video of his homerun today and I'm amazed he didn't catch a fastball in the ear after that. He takes a stupid hack at it and drills the homerun, stands there and watches it, tosses the bat, and points into the crowd or Twins dugout (couldn't really tell) as he trots around the bases, then does his stupid handshake with Miggy at the plate. Meanwhile, Miggy is jumping around like a fool between 1st and 2nd after it was hit too.

I've always been a fan of the Barry Sanders type. Act like a man out there, take your profession seriously, respect your opponents, and act like you've been there before.

One of the worst thing in sports is the clowns who think you're showing up an opponent when you celebrate.

There is a difference between celebrating and acting like a fool. He came across as a fool to me today. Watch the video of it...

They just changed pitchers to bring in a lefty to face Prince and he hit a go ahead 3 run shot in a tie game in the 8th inning. Only the 2nd time this year he hasn't hit a solo shot. He knew it was gone the second it left the bat, stood there and watched it for a second, started running and pointed at someone in the crowd (not the dugout). I don't have an issue with any of it.

I have more of an issue when a guy gets a single in 5-0 game in the 8th and then points at the sky to thank god...now that looks foolish to me.

Well yeah, anytime somebody points to their imaginary friend, they look like a fool.
