Kevin Millar's Ray Lewis Dance Is Boss
I've never really given much thought to Kevin Millar, and if I did it would go something like this ... He's an average to below-average 1B/DH-type who doesn't look like he should be able to compete physically yet still gets on base and hits his share of doubles and dongs. And he also goes socks high, frosts his hair and loves to style facial growth.
Ever since signing with my favorite team (O's are still my 1, Nats are 1A) before last season, he's just been one of those guys. You know, those Marty Cordova or David Segui-type guys that Baltimore gives decent money to for no reason at all. They're just kind of ... there. Not really good anymore yet not quite bad either. Certainly on the downside of their career yet still getting regular at-bats. I imagine them counting their playing days and their money while living high on the hog (or at least as high as Charm City allows) while fans wonder what the hell is going on with this franchise.
But all that changed this morning while making the rounds through the blogosphere (yes, I really do such a thing on the daily). Via my friends at Gheorge: The Blog, here's Millar doing the Ray Lewis dance during Opening Day introductions at Camden Yards ...
Move over Bedard, Tejada, Cabrera, B-Rob, Markakis, Ray, Loewen and lifetime favorites Surhoff, Sheets and Reboulet, there's a new boss in town, and his name is Millar. Anyone who can get away with doing the God's Linebacker dance in B'more is alright with me.
Bonus: Watch Millar get his Bruce Springsteen on. If it was good enough for the Fenway Park scoreboard, it's good enough for YouTube!
