Ladies. Gentlemen. Fans of drunken former Cy Young Award winners who make an ass of themselves on television.

And I know you're out there!

Go check this out right now.

RIGHT NOW.

Not tomorrow, not after breakfast.

RIGHT NOW.

If you thought the Joe Namath "I want to kiss you" episode with Suzy Kolber couldn't be topped -- you're right. It can't be topped, and perhaps it never will be. But this comes pretty darn close. Apparently Rick Sutcliffe got a little sauced up before he stumbled into the booth during a local television broadcast of a San Diego Padres game, and, well, let's just say he went Frank the Tank on the announcers while the cameras were rolling.

And thank the Lord the cameras were rolling.

I'm not sure this even counts as unintentional comedy, because you actually feel embarrassed for the guy after a while. . . . . so I guess it does count as unintentional comedy. I would've totally lost it if the sound byte ended with Sutcliffe saying, "Do you think KFC is still open?"

Anyways, click the link. It's pretty freakin hilarious.
