09.11.08 THE RED SOX MAKE THINGS UNFUNNY

Bloggers are losing their shit today over this video of Jonathan Papelbon in drag and performing the climactic scene in Dirty Dancing. Larry Brown Sports has a painfully long five-minute version of this video, while I saw this tolerable two-minute version at Awful Announcing.

And that’s all it is: tolerable. It might have been funny if we weren’t subjected to the reactions of all the Red Sox players. It’s like a horrible laugh track. “OH MY GOD, he’s dressed like a GIRL! He doesn’t take himself seriously! He probably doesn’t even call gay people fags! What a fag!”

I’m sorry, but where I come from it’s no big deal for young men to wear women’s clothing. Where I come from being “Drama Club.”

Papelbon is the king of all douches in a land filled with douches. His intimdating glare on the mound is pathetic.
