Denard throws first pitch at today's Tigers game, fails

Submitted by Moleskyn on

I love me some Denard, but this is actually pretty hilarious. I guess you can say he made the right choice by sticking to football?

I really expected that by now, he'd have undergone surgery, and that arm would be in a soft cast.

but there was a tiny linebacker where the ball bounced.  Denard can't help but throw in their direction  .... I kid I kid,  I love me some Denard too.

that elbow must be crazy f'd up to throw that bad still.  It's been almost 6 months.

 

I really don't want to believe Denard throws a baseball that bad.

My Spartan Facebook friends are all sharing this video, mostly saying something along the lines of "Someone remind Denard that the Alabama game is over".... 

Darn Trolls! >_<

Expect that when this video is revised, we'll see the Denard Robinson technique added and approved by the International Cricket Council. Once again, Denard Robinson proves that he can excel in any sport after just one lesson.

seriously, Carl Lewis never learns. That was almost as bad as his attempt at the national anthem at a nets game years back. He kept trying to get it right and butchered it entirely. At the end of that clip you see him gesturing for the catcher to throw the ball back so he can give it another go....give it up carl. Just stick to sprinting.

Also, I love the look Eric Davis gives the Cincinnati Mayor. That was priceless.

"Bless You Boys" had a link to a throw which made Denard's first pitch something on par with names like Steve Carlton, Tom Seaver or Nolan Ryan. This is from a  Korean game, but at least Denard was on the mound. The person in this video was barely 30 feet from the plate, from the look of it:
