I really wish r guys would stop standing around and watching their hr's for 10 2nds. It used to piss me off when Griffey Jr. used to do that. Barry Bonds still does it. I just think when our guys no they've hit one just run the bases...

:fyou Dustin Mohr. Torii Hunter still does that s***. Are you telling me that he talked to him to quit it? I very seriously doubt it, hypocrate.

Well if Hunter does do it he's an idiot too. But our guys r better then that.

I don't mind when a guy will watch a BOMB - hell, I would too, I think, if I really jacked one like Frank or Eric Chavez did.

 

What bugs me is flipping the bat away or throwing your hands up - at that point I think, JUST RUN THE BASES!

 

The worst ( and now EVERYONE is doing it ) is the stupid pointing to the sky!

That agitates me - hello, Jesus! hello, dead relative!

UGH.....

I'd do that every damn time i hit a homer if I knew it was gone. If it were close, I'd be busting my ass all the way.

 

I never had huge power though, as I've only hit about 3 homers (Actual out of the fence homers) in my baseball career. None of them were absolute shots so I was hauling ass on everyone.

Screw Dustan Mohr, these are the big leagues, that's what happens.

Homer "hopping" should be banned. Just saying. :fthecubs

Nobody on the White Sox stands there for 10 seconds anyway

Solomon Torres did his part to try and stop "the hop." ShamME's big head won't allow that to happen though

Dustan dust-up

 

It's not a real Twins-White Sox series without some controversy, and Dustan Mohr added a little more heat to this series with comments about Chicago's home run celebrations.

 

Mohr told the Associated Press following Tuesday's 8-6 loss that he was tired of watching White Sox hitters standing at the plate and admiring their home runs.

 

When asked about his comments a day later, Mohr would not back down.

 

"I don't care," Mohr said. "I wasn't trying to disrespect anyone. I just said I was tired of seeing them stand in the batter's box, watching their home runs. No disrespect, but there's no need to show anyone up. We don't do that to them."

 

White Sox players weren't pleased.

 

"Last year, they win and we don't say anything," outfielder Magglio Ordonez said. "Now we win and they're offended?"

 

Even if the White Sox were proud of their home runs Tuesday, some Twins didn't care.

 

"I was more upset about the balls going over the fence," center fielder Torii Hunter said.

Oh my gosh, does TorII actually have a sense of humor?

The Sox are not nearly the biggest culprits. I think the worst is Bret Boone and his damn bat flip. He flips his bat a like a goof everytime. Sometimes even when it's not a homerun.

 

Mohr is just as ass. The Twins don't stand at home for a few seconds after they hit a homerun? Bull s***. It's just not as noticable when you don't hit nearly as many. I don't like the showboating, but if it's a huge bomb, then stand for a little fine.

 

I hate how Bonds always does his for what seems a few minutes. Sosa's hop is old now too, he seems to do it on ground balls in the infield now.

What about Sammy and "the hop"?

 

I don't hear Dustan Mohr complaining about that bulls***.

 

Keep it shut Mohr.

 

:dips*** :dips*** :dips***

That's rich, coming from a teammate of A.J. Pierzynski, who made an ass of himself with his celebration in front of the A's dugout in last year's playoffs.

don't care," Mohr said. "I wasn't trying to disrespect anyone. I just said I was tired of seeing them stand in the batter's box, watching their home runs. No disrespect, but there's no need to show anyone up. We don't do that to them."

 

 

well maybe if mohr hit a few more homers then he could actually stand there a few seconds and admire it....sounds to me like someone has homer envy.....

I don't hit masny so I stand there when it's a no doubter.

Mohr is just as ass.

Hes a Twin. Whatd you expect?
