Sports Mariah Carey: The Newest Member of the Mercury Softball Team

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on Thu, May 29 at 11:32 AM

People have called us idiots for deciding to add pop singer/diva Mariah Carey to the two-time champion Mercury Softball Team. (They also call us idiots for other reasons, but let’s try to stay on topic.)

HOWEVER! As you will clearly see from this video of Mariah throwing out the first pitch at a Japanese baseball game, her athletic skills match and sometimes even excel the acting skills she exhibited in Glitter. BEHOLD, THE GREATEST OPENING PITCH EVER!

Mariah, welcome to the Mercury team!

Will the Mercury's new team uniform include Mariah's cute pink satin jacket?

Bpaul, it's very rare that I call people out on blog responses, so please don't take what I have to say as any sort of personal attack. That being said; could you Please refrain from using the word "random" in place of (weird, queer, bizarre, strange, etc?)It's just that the whole, "OMG that's sooo random" thing just smacks of Dane Cook, Hot Topic, and all the other things that are so irritating about today's teenagers. I'm sure that if you think about it for a moment, you'll agree that the word "random" should really only be used in its rather narrowly defined context.
