Situational Awareness

Evan Longoria saves a reporter with a bare-handed catch.

Damn. Dude's got eyes on the back of his head.

kx59 said...: might be, but I watched a teenager do something very similar at a basketball game where a runaway ball was about to smack the mother of a friend in the face. He heard the last bounce behind him and casually turned and palmed it away.; 10:34 PM, May 16, 2011
Southern Belle said...: Having been a ball player, I have seen balls come off a bat and hook like that many times.

Take a look at a pitch coming out of a pitcher's hand at 95mph, it will do some wild stuff.

I'm not saying with 100% certainty that it's real, but I wouldn't be so quick to say that it was fake, either.; 8:48 AM, May 17, 2011
Irish said...: Hi again.. watch the slow mo in this vid.. you can see the real ball go straight out to short stop- third base area.. :); 4:47 PM, May 17, 2011
kx59 said...: I watched 5 or 6 times in a row and couldn't see the ball take off towards shortstop. What I did see is a reflection of light off the bat. Regardless, this vid is starting to build some buzz on the interwebs, mostly because of debates such as this.; 12:05 AM, May 18, 2011
Borepatch said...: Clearly, Longoria is a racist. Consider:

1. He saved the reporter from being smacked in the head with a batted ball.

2. She's black, the batter was white.

3. She no longer has a grievance. He TOOK that from her. Another example of THE WHITE MAN taking from the sisters.

Exercise Your 2nd Amendment Rights

Do you have a firearm that you have purchased for home protection, but are not comfortable with your ability to safely maintain, load and fire it?
Uncle Jay would be glad to help.
If you've never shot a firearm or would like an introduction into shooting sports, just let me know. I can arrange range time and can give you practical assistance in learning about guns, or help you with your personal protection firearm.

Always remember the 5 rules:

1. Always treat a firearms as if it is loaded.
2. Never point a firearm at anyone or anything that you do not intend to kill or destroy.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot.
4. Know your target and what is beyond the target.
5. Don't be a dick.

You can violate one of the rules and you might survive; If you break two of the rules, someone could be hurt or killed.
Violate the 5th rule and the person hurt or killed will probably be you.
Always remember: You are personally responsible for anything that happens while a gun is in your hands.

Listen 2 Uncle Jay
