We Phillies fans think about the 1993 Phillies a decent amount, since they’re the most recent Fightins squad to actually make it to the playoffs. But nothing would have prepared us for Darren Daulton, who this February revealed that he thinks the world is going to end when the Mayans said it would.
But that’s not all! The former Phillies catcher — who has been arrested “five or six” times and who did eventually win a World Series with the Marlins in 1997 — calls his theories “metaphysics.” He believes (loosely copied from my original post):
- Daulton defines metaphysics as anything beyond the five senses: reincarnation, the fourth and fifth dimensions, out-of-body experiences.
- Dutch says his car accident in Jan. 2001, where he was arrested for drunk driving, was actually someone intentionally running him off the road because of a business deal with ties to the FBI and White House.
- He once got the game-winning hit against the Cubs (while with the Marlins) and, afterward, started crying. He told his wife “I didn’t hit that ball. Something happened, but it wasn’t me.”
- Daulton subscribes (loosely) to the Mayan theory: The world will end on Dec. 12, 2012, at exactly 11:11 GMT. At that time, the chosen will simply vanish from the plane of existence.
- During his last stint in prison, he wrote a 32,000-word manuscript titled If They Only Knew! that’s all about his theories.
- Dutch thinks the secrets of the pyramids are strategically placed all around the galaxy (the moon, Mars, and the like.).
- And here’s his feeling on rosin bags: “Sure. A rosin bag is just a mirage of innumerable particles constantly speeding up or slowing down. But the Fourth and Fifth Dimensions remain unseen by most people. Their vibrations are at a lower frequency.”
Oh, Darren. Why is John Kruk on Baseball Tonight and not you?
