Carl Everett’s Crazy Hall of Fame has some new inductee’s for 2008. Without further audieu here is the Class of ’08:
The Oregon Duck who beat the crap out of the Houston Cougar on the sideline after the Cougar decided to do pushups after a Houston touchdown is the only member of the regular membership category as he garnered 71% of the vote.
The Veteran’s Wing of the Hall has four new members they are:
Don Zimmer, (71%) the senior citizen, is nominated for charging at Pedro Martinez in a bench clearing brawl between the Red Sox and Yankees and being grabbed by his gerbil ears and hurled to the ground by possibly the best pitcher in Red Sox history.
Jim Calhoun (57%) for his overall achievements in the way he deals with the officials and how he treats his players on the sideline after an error. Plus there will always be his “I fucked up” tirade at media regarding the recruitment of Ryan Gomes, a true classic.
Bobby Knight (57%) for his overall achievements of media and player berating. Some of the greatest Knight moments are post game press conferences especially come tournament time. He was Latrell Spreewell before Latrell was and of course the defining moment may possibly the throwing of the chair at the free throw shooter.
Robin Ventura (57%) for charging Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan after the “Express” drilled him with a pitch. The fight wasn’t very fair as Ryan, also a cattle rancher, put Ventura in a headlock and kicked his ever loving ass right on the mound as the benches emptied.
