Former Blue Jay Alex Rios Swearing at Kid / You're a Bum

On a similar note, a friend of mine (Yankees fan) was at the Yankees/Red Sox Sunday night game this past weekend. Before the game my friend was watching BP from the outfield and Jonathan Papelbon was shagging fly balls (I think this is when it occurred, I could be wrong), and a kid gets his attention and says "hey Papelbon, can you sign this baseball for me?". Papelbon looks at him and laughs and says "why the [expletive] would I sign anything for a [expletive]ing Yankees fan?". The kid then picked up a broom and said "hey, can you sign this for a Yankees fan?". Papelbon responded with "[expletive] you, [expletive]ing [expletive]", or something of that nature. Anyway, I find that story kind of hard to believe, but I also don't think my friend would make that up. Pretty funny that the kid had such a good sense of humor.

 

As for Rios, he should be ashamed of himself. I understand it when athletes blow off fans asking for autographs if there are like 500 fans lined up wanting to get something signed and the athlete really has to leave, but this was just one little kid asking for an autograph. I am glad the guy called him out.
