Last season, Tito and the Gun Show earned near celebrity status with their infamous Mark Teixeira video, even appearing at Turner Field to perform their hit live at a Braves game at the end of last summer. Original video shown below.
Well, a few Mets fans, perhaps still coming to terms with their team's monumental September collapse, have produced a rebuttal in the aftermath of New York's acquisition of left-hander Johan Santana this offseason. Just came across this video recently--it is fairly entertaining.
One can only wonder: If Teixeira signs with the New York Yankees, perhaps the only realistic suitor for the Boras client when he hits free agency this offseason, will a pair of Yankees fans create a similar video tribute?
I just graduated from Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, Florida. During my days down in St. Pete as a student there, I began to follow and cover the Tampa Bay Rays for Scout.com. Fittingly, the franchise begins to win as soon as I leave.
I enjoy reading, watching and writing about baseball, taking BP and playing golf.
For me, Buster Olney's blog is a daily must read, though Rob Neyer is up there as well.
