Oh my! Like this is the first time this has happened? How many sports figures haven't had their tapes surface yet, Dr. J? There's probably a Magic Johnson tape out there somewhere.

Who among us hasn't had his major-league career thrown into jeopardy by something like this?

Japanese college boy porn? Well, that sounds good in theory.. but is he hot?

What do you do with an elephant with three balls?

You walk him, and pitch to the rhino

/HAHAHA

Which ONE? I want to see if we have it in stock.

Was Piazza his catcher??? And by the way, this is old news.

Ain't no big thang. 'Least, most likely it ain't.

"I don't understand English, so any abusive [comments] doesn't matter,"
he said with the help of a translator.

It's a shame that "Fag" will be the first word of english he learns.

C'mon everyone, let's let him put this big thing in his
behind... errr I mean behind him.

And just because you know their going to be said sooner or later, lets get these ones out of the way:

He's a switch-hitter
He plays for both teams
Has a good eye for spotting balls

As long as he wasn't in Yatta...

So I pitched for my Japanese college team and yadda yadda yadda...I made the big show.

And by the way, this is old news.

Sorry, not all of us are as up to speed on the Japanese gay porn industry as you seem to be.

Hey pitcher guy, try not to suck anymore dicks on the way to the dugout!
/36 is his number

Poor John Rocker might have to sit next to this guy on the subway!

Very balsy (pun intended).

Took one for the team?

Like it says in the old familiar biblical prophesy, "Sooner or later someone has to come up with gay bukakke tentacle rape pr0n. And that someone will be Japanese."

Er, I meant "ballsy". Very ballsy. (pun, once again, intended.)

This is pretty old news -- I was reading about this many months back. Few MLB teams were willing to risk it, given how ... open minded most of their players (the likes of John Rocker) are.

I'm surprised they're having more press conferences about this.

Still, I can see it now during the World Series.

"And this pitcher even did a stint in the movie business before moving to the MLB. Can we see a clip of the movie?"

He'll gladly check your bat for cork.

Oh my headline was much funnier. "Indian's pitcher agrees to play catcher before reading contract."

Sure he's not gay. Uh-huh. Right. Gotcha.

he he he. Not only has his ass taken it, but now it has been bitten as well.

An old proverb states, "One in the mouth, usually means two in the hand, or on the chin as the case may be".

Soooo many little japanese hotties walkin around, and this guy would rather play with some guys chopstick. Now that's just sad.

Have You Met Miss Jones

Nice.

Let's just hope for his sake he doesn't drop anything in the shower, i'm sure the rule still stands for the majors.

How many times do I have to tell you! Im the pitcher, youre the catcher!

Throw your pitch NOW!!!

I did some snooping and found the video. : YATTA!

ahh guess i cant post images. copy/paste it !

VBB tags. Niiiiiice.

We were all young and dumb once, right? Right? Anyone?

"I'm not gay. I want to clear that up," he said.

As if that would be a bad thing if he was. I'd hoped things had progressed further than that in this country.

For somebody trying to get into the MLB, being openly gay would be a very bad thing. Not saying that's right or wrong, just the way it is.

There are no openly gay players in the big leagues today. The same is true in the NFL, NHL and NBA.

It's like Jim Crow for gay people.

Id be worried to hit his spit ball.....

What's the problem? I mean, everyone acts like a locker room full of jocks might be a little homophobic.

Dr. Toast, this was covered on The Jim Rome Show on radioA LONG TIME AGO, and it isn't about Jap porn, but sports. Incidently, no matter how much this professes his hetrosexuality, the fact he engaged in these acts, will always make them question his sexuality. He gave up MILLIONS of Dollars, just to score a few "in a bad time." This is why the Japanese league wouldn't take him too.

Hell, American pro sports teams will take convicted felons, no problem. As long as you can throw a baseball 95mph, or push people out of the way, they'll find a home for you. In fact, a certain basketball league, nationally famous in the USA, wouldn't exist if they barred convicted felons (or if they tested for marijuana use).

Gay pornos? As long as they're not with underage boys, no problemo!
