Sizemore Photos Have Slugger Scrambling for His Lawyer
Grady Sizemore can really play. So well that he may have played us into believing he didn't want people to see his nude photos? (Photo: flickr.com)
Centerfield on a Major League Baseball team is a glamour position. Not only does the player have to have some offensive ability, but they have to be able to take charge and captain the outfield defense. Got a line drive in the gap? The centerfielder has to be able to get on his horse and flag those down. Need to go back on a towering fly, perhaps even bring a potential big fly back into the yard with an explosive catch above the wall? Hope that your centerfielder is the right man for the job, because that’s why they make big money (no cash advance needed here). When it comes to centerfield, All-Star Grady Sizemore, 27, has got it covered for the Cleveland Indians. And the ladies apparently love to cover him.
But It’s Him Not Being Covered That’s Causing a Ruckus
Yes, you have probably heard about the nude Grady Sizemore pictures by now. According to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, he’s taking legal action against Web sites that allegedly stole images taken for his girlfriend Brittany Binger. There were at least 15 photos that were pilfered, some of them depicting the matinee idol slugger in various states of undress.
“These pictures were stolen illegally from my girlfriend’s e-mail,” he told the paper. “It’s now a legal matter that is under investigation. I can’t say anything more.”
He’s Balls to the Wall Upset
I say that in this information age – where reputations are made and destroyed as quickly as Facebook accounts are created – you simply shouldn’t throw your junk around online. Private moments from the bedroom are the business of those involved. Grady can go au gratin any time he wants, but why risk that E-mail transmission will be secure? Cash advance portals like Personal Money Store can protect sensitive information; your average online E-mail account, not so much.
Or perhaps Brittany Binger just wanted to share. Why not? Aren’t we a society of voyeurs and exhibitionists?
The Team Stands Behind Him – But Not Too Close
It’s called “bro-mance,” not “ro-mance.” When manly men swing the lumber, it’s all about what’s happening between the lines. And the Indians are keeping it platonic and professional: “We fully support Grady as he deals with this personal matter. The posted photos were stolen from his girlfriend’s E-mail account and a legal investigation is underway.”
Perhaps Grady’s On-Field Exploits Haven’t Been Enough
Perhaps the spotlight has dimmed at the same rate as Grady’s diminishing statistics and the Indian’s diminished performance. To be fair, Grady Sizemore (he of pictures) did have to deal with injuries last season, one of those being a sports hernia. He hit .248 with 73 runs scored, 20 doubles, six triples, 18 homers and 64 RBI – fine for a run-of-the-mill player, but your internal organs would have to be displaced to think that those numbers are good for a marquee player like Grady Sizemore (pictures and all).
Don’t Snap Your Package if You Don’t Want an Audience
Grady Sizemore pictures will circulate until his legal action manages to shut down the narcissistic parade. Yes, it is narcissistic, and no, he probably won’t admit that. Being humble is more attractive to the fans. I’d still take him if he wanted to play for the San Diego Padres, where he could pick things up where Brian Giles left off… leopard Speedos and all. Which I don’t really want to know about, but I hear tell. That kind of thing may play with the ladies or the male kind who are inclined to that sort of thing, but give me a cash advance so I can buy better content filters on my computer. I’m way too impressionable to be reading that kind of buff stuff.
