Iraqi Shoe Thrower

[biglou]

I'm sure everyone saw that.

Anyway, apparently the Yankees have offered him a 5 year deal worth close to $30 million. :laugh:

Thank you. I'll be here all week.


(yeah, yeah, I stole that from Sportscenter...)

 

[XRpredator]

Not sure why they'd make that offer. He missed!

 

[Kawidude]

He missed, but he DID throw both shoes. So I'm assuming that means he's a switch-hitter as well.

 

[Patman]

Frankly I thought it would have been funny for GW to pop up after the second shoe and say "Well you throw like a girl!"

 

[Shaw520]

Actually, his accuracy was spot on,... but Ole' Dubbya had some pretty quick moves,..and seemed to get a kick out of it! :laugh:

GWB is a hot commodity for dodgeball, seemingly! Damn, if he would have nailed him?

I heard Don King was pretty impressed with GW's ability to duck and weave.

Yeah, he was smirking when the second shoe came flying at him.

Now THAT woulda been funny!

I was disapointed in W's decision this morning, all in an attempt to avoid the "shoe" being thrown at him again in late March.

 

[Vic]

Woulda been cool if he caught the shoes. :nod:


Then, threw them back at the guy. :laugh:

 

[whenfoxforks-ruled]

Like he got schooled by Chuck Norris?

The Secret Service should have dropped the guy before he got his arm moving forward to throw the first shoe.

The Secret Service should have dropped the guy before he got his arm moving forward to throw the first shoe.

The media have timed it already. The time from the first shoe to the time when the secret service were over there was 2.5 seconds. Two and a half seconds! Not only that, the guy was taken down by Iraqi media journalists before the secret service could reach him.

Then he got taken to jail where the iraqi officials beat him up. I'd say he got his share of Texas justice.
