Maybe not quite on pure physicality alone, but associating his look with his personality adds extra unpleasantness.

Lackey is certainly lacking in looks, but Harang is no one's lacky when is comes to ugly. He literally lacks for nothing in that area.

Yes, it's true: I think too hard about analogies.

Re: Best shape of my life version 2013

I'm personally in the best shape of my life. Instead of going to Raising Canes and Chipotle 3x per week, I've scaled back to 2x.

Aaron Harang makes former Cardinal Willie McGee look like a handsome gentlemen by comparison.

Re: Best shape of my life version 2013

I'm sad to report that, thanks in part to a fairly new desk job which has absolutely no physical activity (unless you count walking to my car at lunch - which is absolutely exhausting!) - I'm reporting to camp this year in the absolute worst shape in my life.

I've heard whispers that if I don't get it together I'll be demoted to moderating BatsZone.com. Off to the gym it is!

LOL, it's the same lovely lady I've had in my avatar for months but I figured a new season called for a new picture.

If you've got a few hours or even days to kill, run a Google Image search for Dianna Agron. You WILL NOT be sorry.

I think Mike might have spent a lot of time during the offseason talking to Brent Musburger, LOL

Re: Best shape of my life version 2013

My avatar is in the best shape of his life, too. Fortunately, he's just barely well behaved enough that I don't have to be as strong as he is to keep up with him.
