Ellsbury salutes baseball greats of the past with Iverson arm sock

Following the Red Sox-Yankees game this past Saturday the Hernia mole spoke with several Boston fans to get their take on Jacoby Ellsbury's new Iverson arm sock.  The feedback was as colorful as expected.

"I don't care what it's supposed to be, it looks wicked queer.  No ball player from my cawna dresses like that.  I don't care how good of a cennafield he plays, the kid rides the pine until he dresses with two sleeves or no sleeves." -- Nibsy Donahue, 53, Brockton

"Ellsbury is so freakin' hawt, who cares." -- Lindsay Porter, 48, North Attleboro

"Sleeve?  I didn't see a sleeve but I'd be prouda if I could say our cennafielder can grow stubble like our tough first baseman." -- Dan Keller, 41, Dover

"Listen, the guy plows some top-of-the-line tail, I'd dress up as Gumby if it won me some of the poon this guy is getting thrown in his face." -- Jeff Flannigan, 25, Brookline

"Why don't ya go ask some uppity douche at Trader Joe's in Brookline?" -- Bill Costigan, 29, Southy

"Jacoby Ellsbury is a fine young player.  Politicians around here have been known to wear pantyhose on their arms at times, so I don't find anything wrong with this." -- Thomas Dockerpants, 41, Beacon Hill

"What happened to his sideburns?" -- Kathy Tedesco, 48, Newton

"Nomaaaaaaaaahh's a wicked pussy!" -- Chris Darlington, drunk (didn't catch what town)

"Who cares, he played well today and the good guys won, so that means I'm drinking and you're shutting the fuck up." -- Hernia friend and world traveler, Dylan Collins

"Yeah, I love Ellsbury and I want him starting every day over Crisp, but I gotta admit it's wicked retahhded." -- Hernia friend and future Senator Johnathan Sculhaus
