Daniel Murphy on Pop Culture

bmfc1 Mar 22 2009 07:33 AM

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/e ... index.html SI has a weekly feature where it asks various athletes questions about pop culture. It looks like Daniel Murphy does more than watch hitting tapes. I love his answer to what the locker room smells like. And someone should fix him up with Amanda Bynes.

My first thought: But she's just a kid! But I looked it up and Amanda will be 23 in a couple of weeks. So she's an appropriate age for Daniel Murphy. To me, she IS a kid. But so is Daniel Murphy. (She is awfully cute though.)

I wonder, though, how does "The Lord of the Rings" change anybody's life?

He seems to be out of the David Wright mold.

="themetfairy":13gbksgc]He seems to be out of the David Wright mold.[/quote:13gbksgc] But I worry that I sense something of the Jefferies force in him. (And "Lord of the Rings" changed his life... as a teenager. All of a sudden, my back is acting up and I feel like chasing kids off my imaginary lawn.) themetfairy Mar 22 2009 09:48 AM He could hang out with my 19-year-old daughter. She loves that kind of stuff. seawolf17 Mar 22 2009 11:05 AM "Our locker room smells like: Wins." Love it! She may have started acting young, but...

He sees it coming and manages to deflect it by swinging his sword at it like a baseball bat. A keen influence on studious young hitters like Danny. Aragorn is also played by an MLBS. Kong76 Mar 22 2009 11:51 AM Not to be critical of the hottie, but those boots look stupid with that dress. They also look two sizes too big, or is that the latest look in hottiewear?

MFS62 Mar 22 2009 12:59 PM Jerry thinks the pop is in Murphy's bat, not his culture. He namesd him the #2 hitter. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseb ... hy_-2.html Later Kong76 Mar 22 2009 01:11 PM sea: Who's looking at her boots?<<< Lol, when I look at a picture I look at the whole picture. The need to re-dye, the you-can-do-me-now-I'm-packed-and-ready-to-stay-the-weekend bag, looks like she has two watches on, and the boots she stole from The Tin Man. OlerudOwned Mar 22 2009 01:17 PM Her shows on Nickelodeon were insipid, even for kids shows.

I could tell they were grooming her to be the next Carol Burnett, but her talent wasn't equal to the task. Fman99 Mar 22 2009 02:15 PM ="seawolf17"]Who's looking at her boots? I was. Oh, wait, that said boots. Nevermind. PS I'd do everything to her. Ruined! metsmarathon Mar 22 2009 02:48 PM i dunno.. amanda bynes never really did anything for me... she's just too damned twig-like. metsguyinmichigan Mar 22 2009 02:49 PM Just got back from taking my son and his two buddies to see "Watchman." I'm agreeing with Murphy. GYC Mar 22 2009 09:11 PM This is making me develop a man crush on Murphy.
