How long before the "Wright is Gay" cat calls from jealous Met/Wright haters come out? Not that there is anything wrong with that (both gay and not wanting to deal with women at this stage of his career/life) but if more crap like that gets out, (especially his GQ photo shoot) you just know some serious and probably slanderous jeers will be falling from stands all over baseball. Kind of also proves my point that Wright is becoming more of a Jeter like personae than Cal Ripken. Ripken was wholesome, and "perfect" as well, but Ripken was a family guy as well, I can't pinpoint the date, but he met his future wife around 1984 or so; and I'm pretty sure no Oriole/Ripken hater ever hurled jeers questioning Cal's sexual preference. Cal always seemed like a guy a Johnny Lunchbucket would want to hang out with at a local tavern, a guy like Jeter, or what it seems Wright is trying to be would most likely rather be seen at the 40/40 with other famous people

Steve,you know when Ripken met his missus?.......that's kinda gay.....:)

Hey know, just did a little internet search on Cal, came up with an article from 1995 which said they met 11 years prior. You know, I know you're joking, but in the age of the internet, its not as creepy or strange to pull info like that. I'll tell you something that is a bit creepy. Former Post writer/ESPN radio host Tom Keegan remembers exactly what he was doing the day Jose Reyes was born, it was Keegan's wedding day! No clue if he ever told Reyes that, but he brought up that fact every now and then on his radio program.

Or perfectly secure Met-lovers.

I know more than a couple of 24 year old men, and none of them think women are a "distraction" Not a good thing to say, kiddo

Also in that New York Magazine article: Jay Horowitz taking the blame for the Dr. Jaerock Lee episode.

I dunno, I find some of this trying to find labels for Wright a little disturbing He's the anti-Jeter, ya know that guy we've all been making fun of for how
|
Yancy Street Gang Apr 03 2007 06:47 AM |
I like how Steve is decrying the "Wright is gay" crowd when so far he's the only one who's ever mentioned such a thing.
|

yes we do, we simply welcome the distraction
|
Rockin' Doc Apr 03 2007 12:51 PM |
I can barely remember being 24. Besides, I was already married by then.
|
soupcan Apr 03 2007 02:00 PM |
I'm 42 and women have been distracting me for the vast majority of my life. You go David.
|
cooby Apr 03 2007 02:27 PM |
Well the thing is, he makes it sound like a bad distraction
|
Yancy Street Gang Apr 03 2007 02:30 PM |
Which doesn't mean he's gay, it means his focus is more on baseball than it is on girls. If his focus was more on BOYS than on girls, or more on SHOES than on girls, then yes, that would be gay.
|
metirish Apr 03 2007 02:33 PM |
David is not interested in scoring with girls right now,,just in baseball.
|
Yancy Street Gang Apr 03 2007 02:37 PM |
He's certainly in a position to have as much sex as he wants, which is something any 24-year-old would envy. (And so would a lot of 40-somethings as well.) But on the other hand, it's got to be tough finding a "soul mate" once you've become wealthy. Unless he hooks up with an heiress or something like that (and Paris Hilton had better stay away from him!!!) he can never really be sure she loves him or his fame and money.
|
Johnny Dickshot Apr 03 2007 02:38 PM |
And that's why he should go gay and move in with Edgy.
|
cooby Apr 03 2007 02:38 PM |
I think Paris Hilton would be perfect for him!
|
Nymr83 Apr 03 2007 02:42 PM |
I think the resulting STDs would make it a bad deal for him. Paris' sister is hotter and gets in much less trouble.
|
Yancy Street Gang Apr 03 2007 02:43 PM |
|
Well, I'M convinced. Once he moves in we'll send him his Schaefer beer.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 03 2007 02:47 PM |
Sorry, I told that joke like a baudy version of MFS62. Later

Heh, I'm pretty sure I meant it as I'm sure it's coming since Wright already is getting bashed for being a jerk, ahole, wanker, weenie, and God knows whatelse on Yankee forums, Phillie Forums, Braves Forums and other places where Mets are loathed the way we hate the Yankees. The Jeter is gay comments are out there on Met forums, and there is no shred of evidence (not even Piazza-esque rumors) that Derek Jeter is gay, so the more vitriolic hatred of David Wright grows to the Derek Jeter level, I can start seeing those kinds of comments, especially if Wright remains single.

Please. If he showed up with those eyebrows, I'd just have to keep the blinds down.
