(8) Hello there. My name is RIOT PUSH-UPS.

This is a scene from the Vancouver hockey riots. The streets are in chaos. Five feet away, a car is on fire -- like, “might blow up soon” on fire. A guy is jumping directly into the flames. Everyone’s going insane. And then there’s this guy on the ground, doing his push-ups. If that isn’t dedication to an exercise regimen, nothing in the world is.

(9) Hi, my name is THE WORST SWING EVER.

Jose Constanza made this swing halfway through a season in which he hit .303! In the Major Leagues! It's like all the RAM in his muscle memory emptied out at once, and he had to consciously orchestrate the movement of each body part.

I’m glad he didn’t make contact. He probably would have just QWOPed his way to first base. Anyway, let’s go ahead and chuck this on the top of the heap of evidence that everyone who plays baseball is bad at it.

VOTE!
