They Were Who We Thought They Were is a closed forum, but we are open to feedback from readers. The best kinds of feedback to send us would be corrections of our mistakes (rare as they may be), and research/stats/info that would be hard for us to obtain ourselves. We'll also post reader opinions in our comments section, especially if they provide some sort of new angle or information on our previous analysis. We may even once in a while admit that we were wrong about something. Lastly, feel free to e-mail Rusty, Lemons, or Ryan Awesome individually with questions or comments (note: questions for Ryan and Lemons should have their names in the subject).

Happy Birthday Rusty

It's Rusty's birthday today, so I thought I'd share some commentary he had from a Jays/Sox game from a couple of years ago or so...

During a Sox-Jays game last year in Toronto Youk comes up to bat, a bunch of Sox fans start chanting "YOUUUUUUUUUUUU" and obviously they do it every time he comes up to bat right? But see the Toronto fans they are le drunk and this wordhumping of an opposing team's player, IT ANGERS THEM FIERCELY, so using their keen, canadian, bobble-headed intellects, they devise a counter-chant, the next time Youk comes up to bat thousands of drunk Toronto blokes start screaming "YOU SUCKS! YOU SUCKS! YOU SUCKS! YOU SUCKS!" and grammar everywhere takes a blow to the chest...

Still one of my favorite baseball stories, love ya Canada, Happy Birthday Bro!

I have a feeling "word humping" is gonna be one of those tags we end up using a lot without trying to...

Thanks guys, and especially Ryan for that lovable remembrance.
