Shelley Duncan, a player for the New York Yankees, signed an autograph for a kid during the Yankees’ recent swing through Beantown. Of course, Duncan could’ve just signed his name for the kid, but that would’ve been too simple. Instead, Duncan proved what a classless ass he is:
Griffin Whitman, a 10-year-old Red Sox fan from Swampscott, was excited to attend his first Yankees vs. Red Sox game Friday night. The young autograph -collector was even more thrilled to score Yankees outfielder Shelley Duncan’s signature before the game. That is, until Griffin read the message from the 27-year-old rookie: “Red Sox suck! Shelley Duncan.”
Oh boo fucking hoo, right? The heartless Yankees asshole signed “Red Sox Suck!” He’s a bastard!
I’m not condoning what Duncan did. He’s still an asshole. I do, however, think that some perspective is in order here. Thank God we have Fark:
Poor kid. Terrible for him to see that word used in such a manner.
Up until then he had thought the proper term was ‘Yankees Suck’, which is shouted by Bostonians every time a crowd of 20 or more people gathers, including church picnics and long lines at the bank.
Give me a farking break.
Indeed. Mom, seriously, shut the hell up. Your little saint will be just fine. If “sucks” is the harshest word he ever hears, you have nothing to worry about.
