The ‘Daily News’ Is Silent But Deadly

Bill Conlin has a column to the effect of what I was saying yesterday: Why was Chase Utley bunting in the first inning? And why do the Phillies seem to make more mistakes than any other baseball team?

But he also has this:

Utley was bunting on his own, of course, a decision that suggests a hitter’s version of what John Kruk once graphically described with cameras rolling as a “brain [flatulence].” Kruk forgot how many outs there were out in leftfield. Utley forgot what happens when an open first base creates a chance for a manager to walk Barry Bonds East.

First off, yes, John Kruk was the first person to ever say “brain fart.” Also: The word fart isn’t allowed anymore? Did Kruk say “brain shit” or something?

    Yet another reason John Kruk was my favorite player.
