Default HR Derby

Posted By: Bob

I know Hamilton is a great story, coming back from being a drug addict and having a magical season but you had to feel for Justin Morneau, one of the nicest guys in the game who was shoved in to a corner while everyone drooled over Hamilton. Even in the early going those stupid announcers talked all the way through his first at bat telling moronic stories and ignoring JM. It's not like the guy won the MVP 2 years ago or anything. He is from Canada but empitomizes "Minnesota nice." He went on and on about how lucky he was and what a great thrill just to be there and how Hamilton was sensational. Class personified. That's just not interesting enough nowadays. Maybe if he had slept with Madonna he would get more recognition
