During last night’s Boston Red Sox win over the Kansas City Royals, NESN commentators Don Orsillo and Dennis Eckersley recalled a story from Friday last night about Orsillo eating ice cream every night. During that exchange, Orsillo said something about Eck being a Bee Gees fan, saying he had a little Maurice Barry Gibbs going on. Well during the game last night, NESN put up a screenshot of Eck and Gibbs together. Of course that led to a pretty funny conversation about Eck’s younger days and how he used to hang out at Studio 54. But that’s not where I’m going with the story. During the game, one of my Twitter followers and a person I follow, Mickie Dorado asked this:
Where are my photoshop artists with the eck head on travolta white three piece body?
Since the Red Sox were killing them at the time, I put my amateur photoshop skills to the test and came up with this little picture located after the jump. After I posted the picture up on Twitpic, I sent it over to Ramiro Torres at NESN. He responded back by saying he was going to use it. So I waited until the postgame show when his segment was on. Unfortunately, I wasn’t paying attention and missed them using it. But thankfully Twitter friends oxsamxo and Gabs1468927 (who also provided the screen shot at the top) told me it was on there. And a special thanks to Mickie Dorado. Because of her, we have video.
