Wedding Bells for "Scumbag" Victorino; Groupies Torn

mlb.com

Yesterday Dan Gross reported:

Shane Victorino broke news of his engagement, cryptically, with a joking request for 102.9 WMGK's John DeBella, an ordained minister, to officiate his wedding next year. The Flyin' Hawaiian said he was getting married "maybe in the end of '09," during an interview on DeBella's morning show the other day.

Victorino and Melissa Smith will wed in November 2009 in Hawaii, Phillies fun and games director John Brazer confirmed yesterday. The couple, who live together in Las Vegas in the off-season, had a daughter Kali'a Makenna Victorino in March of last year.

I know you're thinking, "Who shives a git?" Well, we do. Why you ask? Well, one of our top search engine referrals is for some form of the phrase "Shane Victorino Groupies."

Word to the wise ladies, double bag it with the two-timer, at least according to this message board.

Here is what some of its commenters are saying:

• HAS MANY WOMEN, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES GIRLS OR DOUBLE GLOVE IT WITH HIM EW
• he is a scumbag! i used to know him when he played for the Scranton Red Barons....
• He did hook uo with girls when she was pregnant. He was hooking up with a bartender from McFaddens named Amy. His girl found out, and it hit the fan.
• Biggest scumbag on the face of the earth.
  
• Thats ashame. I hooked up with him while his girlfriend was pregnant. Guess Im not a fan of his anymore. His girlfriend should make sure he stops being a typical man
• i plan on f*cking him at spring training this year - so fiance and rat kid or not he is so sexy and i want his baby too! - heather

How do you hug us?

When doing a blog like this, there are always reasons to Google odd names, combinations of words and phrases, etc. The site that tracks how readers find us generates a list of the words and phrases other people use. Some of them make sense. For example:

Harold Reynolds given raw deal
Harold Reynolds and Wife Photos
Harold Reynolds FOX

All of those are harmless. Unless that person is actually referring to Harold as a fox, then it might be odd. But you can understand how typing those words would lead someone to us.

The next few are interesting search requests but the results from our site do make sense.

You know how we feel mascots- That was an actual post.

Will Demps pictures- I am hoping it's a female crowd that's looking for these but it will lead them here.

Shane Victorino girlfriend- While I don't agree with it, I understand it. And I hope it's a female. Our hail to the Victor-ino.

But some of the searches are downright baffling. Here are our favorites from the past week.

Say d- what does this mean? Where they looking for sexy 80's singer Sadie? Sadie Hawkins? We will never know. But it led them to click on this.

Danka Shane- You're Welcome?

"ed hochuli" "brett favre"- Pipes and the Gunslinger.

Skinny now I am fat- I am not sure the result this person was looking for, but I am sure this shot at the people in gym was not it.

Here's a guy who – Is looking for more Frank TV

Diandra Asbaty bikini- a professional women’s bowler in a bikini. You kinky devil. Here is the disappointing search result.

But the hands-down funniest request had to be this:

The cranky sandwich man on the jerry +steinfeld show- Wow. Where do I begin. The cranky sandwich man I assume is the Soup Nazi. And I thought only my father called him Jerry Steinfeld. And the + sign I am hoping was a slip of the finger. Unless there was a cranky sandwich guy on Big Brother Jake. Then I am really at a loss. The search led them here.

I am keeping my eye on the searches. And you nut jobs.

I Kick the Ball

The US National Team shows that soccer players have the stuff to party like Will Demps. Unfortunately, their Pop Culture Grid rep, Pablo Mastroeni, comes off more as a Dictorino than a smooth walking, jive talking Will Demps.

The answers that set Ariel off this week:

Now that summer is over, I can..."Ditch my banana hammock "
Favorite celeb scandal of summer: "Britney's panties"
Favorite brew: "New Belgium's Skinny Dip"
Favorite book as a child: "My dad's magazine stash"

Dick-tor-ino

Ladies and Gentleman, we have another Will Demps on our hands.

As we all know, Ren and I are big fans of Philly sports, particularly the Phils and the Birds.

Over the past baseball season we've learned some things about on of our favorite Phils, Shane Victorino. Ren was an early fan on the Flyin' Hawaiian for obvious reasons - his speed, consistency, rocket arm and generally what just seemed like good natured sportsmanship.

Two things happened this year to make us think otherwise:

Incident #1 - Each year the Phillies host "Photo Day" usually held on a Saturday or Sunday, it gives fans the opportunity to come a few hours early for a day game, and get a chance to take pictures and get autographs from all of the players. My cousin took his 9-year old son, and huge Phillies fan out to photo day. Came home with tons of pictures, some great and stories about players who were really nice and genuine (believe it or not, they found Pat the Pat to be among the nicest, friendliest players, particularly to the kids), but also came home with a huge case of disappointment in one particular Phil - Shane Victorino. Apparently, Mr. Dicktorino (as I now refer to him) was down right dismissive to the children, and seemed too good to take some time, sign a few autographs and snap a few pictures. Now, this could be an isolated incident, maybe he was having a bad day, maybe there was a medical emergency that required him to bypass the children and get to the clubhouse, maybe he signed more than everyone else and was spent for the day. Hell, my cousin, unlike his son, is a Yankees fan and I wouldn't put it past him to make a snide comment. I'm willing to let him slide, and think he was just busy and/or in a hurry. Sure, Howard, Chutley, Camels and even Harry the K were friendly enough as evidenced by some great photo ops, so why wouldn't the Hawaiian be? But that leads me to...

Incident #2 - Ren receives Sports Illustrated, compliments of his lovely wife, me. I flip through it from time to time, especially for the regular columns in the front of the mag. I guess each issue they do a "Pop Culture" grid where they take a handful of players from various sports/teams, and ask them the same random 5 questions. Shane Victorino was among those questioned.

Question #1 - "I'm Superbad when I...." most answers here were of the "when I'm golfing" nature. Victorino's answer "Get around women."

Question #2 - "What is in your pocket?" All of the answers, except his were some combination of wallet, keys and cell phone. His answer "Wallet, cell phone, Trojans" and I am assuming here that he cannot fit the USC football team in his pocket. ." Wow.... professional baseball players get lots of girls????????? Go figure.

Question #4 - "Boxers or Briefs"..... to me there are two answers here (well three, since a few went the boxer-brief route). But his answer , "None I go commando." Being that you sweat in a uniform for at least 3 hours a day, I find this just disgusting.

Question #5 - "Person I am dying to have dinner with?" Should be an insightful answer that illustrates the type of person you are. Once again, Victorino has a doosey - "Jessica Biel."

What is he gong for here? Is he trying to come off as an a-hole? I mean seriously. Maybe I feel this way because I am a woman, but I feel like if this is the kind of guy you are, then you deserve the trashy groupies who hang around professional athletes looking for a piece. I'd hope that Sports Illustrated draws a slightly more sophisticated readership of men than that of Maxim or Stuff, which would be a more appropriate venue for such answers.

First you're too good to take a picture with a 9-year old fan, then you think you're cool cause you let your disease infested junk hang out there, while fishing for your Trojans and waiting for Jessica Biel to dump JT and return your calls? You're not even among the top 5 best-looking Phillies!

Grow up, Shane, grow up. And put on some dang underwear.
