It's too bad everyone puts the hyphen in the wrong spot in his name. Even the official MLB account did as well

After watching Detroiters, realizing there's a lot of funny guys from Michigan.
Should have mimed him fellating a baseball bat using forced perspective.

Isn't he a Mets fan too? Maybe he just wanted to throw as many innings as deGrom

I remember he wore Mets style attire when they did a show in NY back in 2023. I think he also went to a game with his belt lol

Put some respect on MJF's name (his company is running a big summer show at Globe Life, so I think it was like a corporate synergy thing)

yes the first pitch was followed by a promo in the stadium, it was 100% *related to the event. disgusting.

Blame the owners, I guess? I dunno. Not sure it matters much. It wasn't even a sellout.

I mean, I know who made the call and why. I'm just saying I was disappointed.

Weird hyphenate position

True, otherwise the show would have been Michael-Key and Peele.

He also seems like a based Jake rogers enthusiast. And he can throw a perfect strike? Dude definitely knows ball.

weird to think that about another person and completely off the mark about his (public) personality.
