A Special Friend

I am going to take this time to talk to you all about my friendship with superstar Brian Giles! Not many people know that it was Brian Giles who saved me from that hell hole called Canada!

Brain and I met some 10 years ago in the Mexican Little League Championship. I was playing for Panama City and he was playing for the Nalgas Tortugas....don’t ask me how! Anyway , this was a year after I decked Bill Welke in the face. Something that Giles said he admired. We hung out after my team won the championship until the break of dawn.

Giles and I were best friends until it came time for him to play professional ball. Of course with Giles being a few years older then me he was going to hit the majors before me. So with him going pro, I had to work extra hard to get things going. Brian supported me 100% and even helped me out when money was tight.

Well my time finally came when I was drafted by the Montreal Expos. I went there thinking that it was my time but I was sadly mistaken. Officials there put me on a strict diet that mostly consisted of the beverage “Canada Dry Ginger Ale”. It was that diet that diminished my skills as a professional player. Then the news came one day that I had been traded to the Baltimore Orioles. That was a welcome change as I would be going to a warmer climate and to a team that had more potential. However things didn’t go according to plan.

The Expos were giving me trouble when I tried to leave. People were saying that they couldn’t let God go play somewhere else but the management made up their minds. It was then that a couple of lower management officials kidnapped me and took me to Olympic stadium where I was bound and gagged. I saw a big hose come from a dug out. Liquid started pouring all over me from the hose. Turns out it was Ginger Ale. THEY WERE TRYING TO KILL ME! Finally I heard a familiar voice. I looked over to see Brian Giles standing there with some US officials.

Brian was able to help me escape the Canadians. I finally arrived here in Baltimore where I was immediately checked into a detox program to help rid my system of the ginger ale.

So you see, I owe my life to Brian F’n Giles. Him and I have been best buds since then. To thank him, I talked to Joe and Jay (Website guys) and they are going to make a Brian Giles tribute page! Thank you all for reading! See you at the yard!
