Old Man Rivera Just All Crumpled And Shit
KANSAS CITY – Yankees closer Mariano Rivera was carted off the field at Kauffman Stadium on Thursday after appearing to suffer a right knee injury shagging fly balls during batting practice.
Time to hang em up old man. I know you’re never supposed to root for an opponent to get hurt, blah, blah, blah. I don’t subscribe to that theory. Just win baby.


I don’t subscribe to that theory either. I celebrated like crazy when Len Bias croaked. Laughed my ass off when Pollard blew out Brady;s knee too. And I think it’s hilarious that Marc Savard is basically reduced to being a functioning retard
I guess you need a ll the help you can get when your team has been one of the worst in the history of the mlb.
He was not shagging fly balls, Dro Man ran on the feild and hit him with a tire iron, he was just sick of seeing Rivera dominate the MLB
Why the fuck was Mo hitting? Do pitchers really practice batting? Seems retarded, especially for an AL closer.
Scumbags. Show some respect. Mo played the game the right way.
Also, zoltan, youre a huge faggot if youre old enough to remember Len Bias and you still post on this site.
He was taking fly balls, dudebro. Not hitting.
he should never be in the discussion for greatest pitchers ever, nowhere in the top 50.
he’s a motherfucking closer, was not good enough to to throw more then an inning and a half. and there are no black people you are so fucking gay, a little annoying bitch
dudebro, he was shagging fly balls not hitting
U mad dudebro? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sweet pedro. way to be an internet tough guy. No need to be jelous just because Mo is a better player than every player the red sox have ever had sans ted williams
C’mon Mo, read the sign and walk off
that is one ironically-placed “walk off a hero” sign, huh?
by the way pres didn’t you write a blog like 2 days ago bashing lebron’s shoe designer for making fun of d rose when he got hurt because lebron wants the easiest path to a championship?
I despise the Yankees but guys like Jeter and Mo deserve respect. And rbuddwyer is right. You’re a stupid fucking hypocrite Pres
do you wear a helmet dudebro?
there are no black people- ever heard of babe ruth?
Hey pedro, look up how many 2 plus inning saves he has you fucktard. Typical Boston idiot not knowing stats before he opens his dumb fucking mouth. Oh and if mo had ever been a red sox, you assholes would put him right next to Ted Williams, so fuck u pres.
No worries, they have their “Closer of the future” Joba Chaimberlin, right?
Hey danny noonan, yeah I wear a helmet when I play hockey, which is not a gay sport where retards injure themselves catching flyballs in practice. Sorry I made a mistake, shithead.
Yeah i have Zimmer, and A) mo is better than the babe. and B) i loled when you said babe. He might have been a member of your team, but he is remembered as a yankee.
zoltan is a fucked up individual
Bound to happen and it did
Rivera is a better player than Babe Ruth? Are you fucking high?
@Zoltan that was the best comment I’ve read on this site, ever. Thank you, and Fuck Boston. Mo > Any Red Sox pitcher in history. Clowns
i actually am.
@TANBPIB, Roger Clemens, Carl Yaz, Pedro Martinez, Cy Young > Mariano Rivera. A closer is always lower than an everyday player and starting pitchers.

Closers and DH should never be compared to any everyday player/starting pitcher. They are specialists who only strive in a small part of the game as a whole.
^^Thanks for the breaking news Cartman, good looking out.
Saying Mo is better than Ruth pretty much sums up NY fans level of knowledge.
Closers = FG kickers
If closers are so unimportant and talentless how come so few can do it?
First MO is not better than Ruth, second comparing Mo to a FG kicker is correct, I guess, But saying that the patriots were pretty lucky to have Viniteri to win those superbowls. Mo has been that consistent for 15+ years and is the best pitcher in postseason history.
Otwisted with the most retarded comment of the night!
I’m a Red Sox Fan and Mo is one of the best closers of my time. sad to see his career possibly end this way
They aren’t talentless. The problem is when comparing them to other players, they only have one talent. Closers have a much smaller impact on the game then position players and sp. Mariano is the best closer of all time but Trevor Hoffman is a close second and nobody is sucking his dick.
jackofspades, what do you mean by so few can do it? Any pitcher can do it, some just do it better and longer than others. Any pitcher in the history of the game could have been a closer, the better ones just tend to become starters because it impacts the game more. Craig Kimbrel was a nobody last year, and now he’s the best closer in the game. The amazing thing about Mo wasn’t the fact that he could close games with the best of them, it was that he could do it year in year out for pushing 2 decades.
at least he didnt fall into the pool at his house and get electrocuted.
TANBPIB, nobody can top your first moronic comment.
@Jack, many can do it, just not at the length Mo did it, his biggest asset was the ability to stay healthy, closer burn out quick cause they try to throw to hard on every pitch.
Sort of reminds me of Terrell Suggs.
@tommyk hahahahahaha
WHERE’S DRO MAN?
Pbilly, He’s hanging out with Chuck Norris on the island of tired jokes.
It’s true if you look at win percentage based on how many runs a teams leading by plus if the closer pitches it’s no impact. That’s for like 40 yrs going back.
That said there’s no denying out of closers he’s hands down greatest ever. Arguably best reliever period of all time. Just automatic 9th inning for 15 yrs (once became closer). Greatest postseason closer too. You should bow to him he has more class in his pink than the entire red sox organization right now.
Boston fan. Rivera is a class act and one of the best pitchers any of us has ever seen. Sucks to see that happen.
/returns to drinking whiskey
Great assessment from someone who clearly knows nothing about human anatomy. The meniscus lie on either side of the ACL/PCL and are then bordered by the MCL. So jackofspades, I’d love for you to tell me how he’s grabbing his meniscus? Because as a doctor, I’ve never seen anyone do that before
And for the record, most non-contact injuries are usually ACL tears. Not saying that’s what this is, because there wasn’t really much video showing what movements he was making that first made him limp, but that’s usually what it ends up being. Sad way for him to go though. Great career
my mortal lock is that “old man” Rivera recovers way faster ..no matter what the injury.. than Pres did with that hammy
So low class to celebrate any injury like this, regardless of which team he plays for.
@Gmen, Mo IS the greatest reliever ever, no contest. But people like Brockton who think i’m retarded for thinking the HOFers i mentioned who played everyday or were starters aren’t better than Mo he’s talikng crazy talk. Thats not to slight Mo, I’d take him over any reliever 100 times out of 100.
I concur with Dr. Bonobo
BuddyB, thank you.
just came here to say this site is way too fucking cluttered, takes 10 minutes to load, and now you have embedded video ads that automatically start?
BuddyB, on the tired Dro jokes by the way.
Hate the Yanks, but hate to see this happen to Mo. Guy is a class act, and is definitely the GOAT when it comes to closers. The silver lining for me is the schadenfreude I get for douchers like 28ontheway.
It looked like he twisted the knee before the wall but I don’t know. Wasn’t there, not a doctor, not a trainer, and rooting for injuries of a great player is as low as it gets. If that’s what you’re into, you should move on to NASCAR. This Sox fan hopes it’s minor. NASCAR is for special needs failures.
Pres you’re a faggot.
Gmen, how pumped were you when Brady got his knee shredded? I think most red sox fans respect mo and think this is unfortunate but I don’t give a Fuck. At least I won’t celebrate it like every non patriot fan did when Brady’s career was on the line.
Sox fan and I’ll take Mo any day. Well, not today.. maybe next week.
Classic viva el pres
ur such a scumbag piece of dog shit its not even funny…. typical masshole….
I like the part where he was clutching his knee.
Nope didn’t celebrate Brady’s injury. I might’ve laughed at jokes about it but that’s different and after the fact. I want him at his bet anyway do the Giants can jus pummel him and there’s no excuses
Any Sox fan who is glad to see this is a disgrace. Mariano, although a Yankee, plays the game the right way and its nice to hear that its only a sprain
My video wouldn’t load so I don’t know what happened, but you are a special kind of piece of shit if you’re happy about this. And Pres is a colossal hypocrite
as someone who actually has taste in sports, i could give less of a shit about basketball and baseball. That being said, you guys would do a much better job of hiding your inferiority complexes if you just followed your own teams instead of fetishizing the bad news of others
Good one mike..eat a dick bro.
Now El Pres will probably make a walk it off GOAT shirt and he’ll be back in the lineup bf any stoolie on here every gets one in the mail….jesus..no wait..Ya Waweh
For everyone calling Boston fans scumbags, I don’t see any comments in this forum that is making fun of Mo getting hurt, in fact i see Boston fans saying that it sucks he got hurt. the only one making light of it is Pres and Zoltan, and it’s clear zoltan likes when anybody gets hurt.
Torn ACL. seya maranira
The difference between Rivera and Brady is that Brady got clipped by an oncoming rusher who hit his knee. Rivera fell like my grandfather did after I tossed him his keys.
Well at least he is still alive. Seau just pussed out of life
It’s a bit sad to see sox fans actually rooting for this. Regardless of the fact that he is a Yankee, you have to respect what the guy did, even as a closer. I 200% agree with the closer/fg kicker comparison, but he was undeniably a major factor in 5 world series victories. Changed the game with his cutter. No doubt a first ballot hall of farmer. No matter if you’re a Yankee fan or a sox fan, as a sport fan you should respect what the man did for the game and keep your sly remarks for the water cooler.
I hope dustin pedrioa fucking dies you classless scum of the earth cock suckers. go fuck yourself. I hope brady dies too.
Stay classy Boston
Kiddo, good job calling people classless while wishing death on people. But that’s par for the course for a piece of shit like you.
loll i love how boston thinks they’re so classy and shit….but curses out black hockey players and wishes injuries on guys that do the right thing…..NOT ALL boston fans, but a lot should feel like dickheads…including el pres….for liking this injury
You are so full of it gmen. You danced around burning books like a wild injin celebrating bradys career on the line. You are so fucking full of it.
rdub: I’m a Boston fan and I’d never call out fans classy. Nice assumption though. I’d also never call NYers classy, or frankly any fanbase classy because everyone has their own bad apples.
Juicy, k1ddo, 28, almost every redsox fan on this post gave props to mo. You 3 miserable loosers must be the best Yankee fans ever. Fabricating shit left and right. The red sox suck and they are 2 games back from your untouchable empire. Fucking loosers l.
K1ddo, classic internet tough guy. Im guessing you’re a 16 – 18 year old kid that’s part of the entitled generation. You need nothing more than to get your ass beaten severely by your father. That’s how most of us grew up.
So it looks like the verdict is torn ACL. As someone who has done that twice, I can’t help but feel for the guy. At the same time, I can’t figure out for the life of me why he was sprinting full tilt toward the wall to catch a fucking BP ball. That amount of effort in BP just seems wildly unnecessary. This likely will cause him to retire and that sucks
Didn’t you just roast Lebron for failing to look upset about an opponent getting injured Pres? Hypocritical Jew.
i only care he got hurt bc hes on my fantasy team
Go suck a dick Pres, you faggot. You clearly know nothing about sports. Everything you say is something I could see my dumbass girlfriend saying, when she pretends to know what she is talking about. Take a cue from KFC, who is a much more fair and overall better writer than you will ever be.
P.S. I don’t know how the fuck your wife puts up with this blog. You’re like 45 and you act like a fucking pedophile creeping on girls half your age. She must have some serious self-esteem issues to stay married to you. You are a terrible person.
How’d he get hurt? Did he trip over Posada’s mongoloid son?
^^^ let’s make racist, hateful comments about young kid with a birth defect LOL. (*sigh) Boston fans are in a race to the bottom I guess…
I bet Mariano’s feeling really torn right now. Ha ha ha. Here’s to hoping it’s Jeter next!!!
How is that a racist statement you twat? Kiddo, you mad bro ? Hahahaha
Mo, jeter, Bernie Only Yankees I ever liked. Except billy Martin I loved that guy
hahahah nice catch mo
fuck off pres
Holy shit k1ddo, you’re such a fucking loser.
Shitty way to go out for Mo, best closer of all time. He gets what most don’t though- the ability to go out on top and STILL dominant.
Mo was a class act.
I think the only way to celebrate his legacy is to have a huge pool party at his home in Panama, and invite all of his cousins.
Can I just ask are the Yankees the biggest idiots on this Earth??
First after Mo goes down they continue to hit BP right at the guy. Couldn’t they take 5 minutes off???? Then they pick up Mo and carry him over to the cart, and they don’t even have it ready yet, and just have to sit there holding him, while they try and get the door down, to the point they have to put Mo back down!!
Way to treat your legend ASS CLOWNS!!!!
To say Mo shouldn’t be considered one of the best PITCHERS of all time because he was a closer is absolutely asinine. Why don’t you ask all the batters that had to face him. Why don’t you ask all the broken bats the man shattered. Why don’t you ask the Yankee starters who were clinging to a one-run lead in the 8th. Why don’t you ask the real Boston fans who knew they had to be winning the game in the 8th or the game was essentially over. Fucking morons.
1. bonobo , let me know where you practice, i dont want to go a doctor that reads barstool
2. Dro man jokes are done? I saw about 50 of them yesterday
3. sucks about Mo, best of luck to him and the yanks, well just to Mo, fuck the yankees
who’s the scrub who has to videotape every fly ball in batting practice?
billyballoonknot FTW, and yankees4lyfe your a faggot! 3 cheers for the fallen Yankee!!!
Ninety nine
hundo had to, too close
Our article is a lot better than this Barstool crap:http://gahdenvarietysports.com/has-the-greatest-closer-of-all-time-pitched-for-the-last-time/
even being a sox fan, you still have to respect Mo. Pres doesn’t know shit about sports
Prez,I love you but this was a dick move. It’s a game and this guy deserved to leave the game on his terms. Just too trailer trash for someone as smart and well spoken as you. Make some peace and love for someone that defined the role of “closer.”
