Author Topic: Kerry gets boo'd by Boston fans... throws like a girl (Read 1903 times)

Preon1 · « **on:** July 26, 2004, 07:09:20 AM »

I just heard a report on NPR regarding John Kerry's appearance at last night's Red Sox vs Yankees game. They played the audio when the announcer introduced John Kerry and he threw out the first pitch. The audio was filled with boo's from the fans and the pitch apparently never made it to the plate.

Does anybody have access to the footage from MLB.com? I'd love to see that clip.

Maybe Mr Black shot the baseball out of Kerry's hand, and that's why it looked like a girl throw?

"Greeted by a mixture of boos and cheers, Kerry ceremonially threw the first pitch of the game to Will Pumyea, 23, of Woburn, Mass., a military police officer with the Massachusetts National Guard who returned recently from Iraq. Pumyea is "a supporter of mine," Kerry told reporters. His throw was low and short. The ball got by Pumyea, who was wearing military fatigues."

I have always dreamed that if I got to throw the first pitch, it would be like Kevin Kline in "Dave".

Hey, this would be front page news and the top story on Peter Jennings commentary show had Bush not been able to get the ball to the plate.

How come we cant find any pictures or any video of this?

Must be all those commercials Im seeing for CNN's "John Kerry: Born to Run" getting in the way.

what do you want from a girlie man?

Stick Bush and Kerry in a ring with gloves, Bush would knock that wimp out within the first 30 seconds.

We should have a national debate, then the "ring" prior to any election.
