(3) Hello, my name is INCENSED TRACY MCGRADY.

I just found myself on a losing end of a 2005 not-all-that-important regular-season loss to the Timberwolves. The Rockets were 39-27. This loss was not a big deal. Regardless: FROWN.

Nobody ever frowns! Ever! When’s the last time you actually turned down the corners of your mouth when you were sad? This is one of the only actual, legitimate frowns I’ve ever seen, and it’s quite a doozy.

The frown. The eyes. The score graphic. The slow zoom-in. I am GIF perfection, and I probably should have been seeded higher.

(14) Hello, my name is BORED EXTRA-INNINGS FAN.

Cups

I was captured at around two in the morning, during the 19th inning of a midseason Braves-Pirates game. The fans kind of started to lose their cookies. Take note of the fellow on the left at the end. He probably has rabies.

In the 1960s, the CIA performed controversial tests on soldiers in which they were subject to inconsequential 20-inning baseball. All of them died.

VOTE!
