You Know Jayson Werth Always Makes Good Stuff …

Sometimes you just find out something that wants to lead you further.
Take, for instance, John Finger’s recent piece about Matt Stairs, very quotatious.
Or Joe Lemire’s piece about Raul Ibanez, who is fitting in nicely in the Phillies outfield. Instead of focusing on what we know – Ibanez’s power, his knack for hitting to all fields, his hustle – here’s a fascinating nugget of information:
For starters, Ibañez and Werth are avid watchers of infomercials. Though they declined to reveal what absurdities they’ve recently purchased for fear of giving an undue endorsement, it’s not hard to imagine their homes are strewn with Snuggies, ShamWows and Swiffer SweeperVacs.
“We both agree that it’s tough to watch an infomercial and not want to at least try it,” Werth said with a laugh. “Maybe we’re both suckers.”
As someone who regularly watches YouTube Poop of infomercial madness, I can only ponder the similarities between Werth and Vince Offer (basically, pop some chin hair on Vince … ).

That Vince guy is giving Billy Mays a run for his money as the World Champion of Info-Mercials.

Hopefully Werth doesn’t like beating hookers like Vince does…
We already have a person who likes to beat women.

On a side note, has anyone seen the show Pitchmen on Discovery? It is a documentary type show following Billy Mays and his buddy Sully. I just picked up on it a couple weeks ago and have enjoyed it.

Yeah, “you’re going to love my nuts”- the first time I heard him say that I cracked up, and I still do.
See, some people on here take this too seriously. It appears the players are really human, they watch INFOMERCIALS, for cripe sake. There’s actually more to their lives than baseball, imagine!

In fact, Jayson Werth does look strikingly similar to the Vince Shamwow guy.
Jayson needs to “stop having a boring tuna, stop having a boring life”

I know someone who is a total neat freak, completely anal, and he swears by the sham-wows, buys them by the dozen.

If only Jayson Werth was caught with a prostitute in his hotel room in Miami and got his clock cleaned by her after she bit his tongue, he’d be exactly Mr. Shamwow. That was a hilarious story if anyone didn’t hear about the shamwow guy and the prostitute that nearly bit his tongue off.
