The Giambino Rocks A Gold Thong
If you had to pick one of the below individuals to be wearing the thong pictured above:
You really wouldn’t want it to be the guy in the middle. But, according to Portfolio.com, it probably is Jason Giambi who is rocking the gold thong:
The deepest, darkest secret harbored by the New York Yankees first baseman is that whenever he is in a prolonged hitting funk, he wears a gold lamé, tiger-stripe thong under his uniform. “I only put it on when I’m desperate to get out of a big slump,” he confides.
I guess that means that Giambi wears it all the time. I guess that also means that IT DOESN’T FREAKING WORK! As evidence of that, I present Giambi’s .188 batting average. Drop the thong big guy and invest in some of those Hanes briefs that number 23 rocks in the commercials. It couldn’t hurt. It also couldn’t hurt for all of us to take our lead from Giambi, who, when he’s not striking out with runners in scoring position, has some great interests:
He loves strip joints, cites Letters to Penthouse as his favorite work of literature, and lives by the motto “Party like a rock star, hammer like a porn star, rake like an all-star.”
Giambi also says that his teammates used to compare his off-field antics to Mickey Mantle. The Mick drank alot, but I doubt that he ever rocked the gold, tiger-striped thong. Just guessing.
Also, as an aside to this story, did you ever think that you would see the day that the mainstream media swarmed all over a story about a baseball player wearing a thong? This story has been ran by everyone today, and not to insult the mainstream, but it seems like this is a case of them trying to out-blog the bloggers.
