Oh, that wacky Ichiro

If you've ever been questioned about your pet's name and felt inappropriate telling it because you don't have your pet's permission, then today, you've found your soul mate. The boys over at Slate have an amusing write up about the Seattle Mariner's star-slugger, Ichiro Suzuki and his quirky behavior over the past several months, with fantastic excerpts from Ichiro such as, "To tell the truth, I'm not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to. If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying."

Go read the full write-up at Slate, and put these quotes on your whiteboard for future reference.

And once you're done that, go read the full "Ichiro-Man" comic book at Husky Comics.
