Gloria Allred Demonstrates Unspeakable Acts With A Baseball Bat In Weirdest Press Conference Ever

video
» 21 comments

Ok, this story, if true, is terrible. Atlanta Braves pitching coach Roger McDowell has been accused of yelling “homophobic slurs” at fans during a game in San Francisco and making obscene gestures with a baseball bat. One of the fans pointed out that his two young daughters could hear him and McDowell allegedly responded “Kids don’t f**king belong at the baseball park.” Again, if this is true, it’s terrible and shouldn’t be made light of…that being said…this video of a press conference the family held with headline-grabbing attorney Gloria Allred is the funniest thing I have ever seen.

Here’s the scene: Allred and the family held the conference yesterday where they called for McDowell and the team to apologize and be fined. Fair enough. Makes sense. However, watching Allred read the transcript of the (alleged) conversation while flacked by stone-faced twin girls and then seeing she and the father, Justin Quinn, reenact the obscene gestures with a baseball bat is absolutely surreal.

I really feel for the family. If you can’t take your kids to a baseball game, where can you take them? However, at the same time, I’m just mesmerized by how they all kept a straight face during this. Seriously. Go find a baseball bat and use it and a hand to demonstrate anal sex for your coworkers and try not to laugh. Now imagine doing that in front of tons of reporters from media outlets all over the country! Impossible!

But, yeah, again, this is a terrible, terrible story.

  • Barack Must Go

    Gloria Allred….nuff said….the end.

  • Harry Flashman

    Somehow Gloria Allred and “bat” belong in the same sentence.

    “I really feel for the family. If you can’t take your kids to a baseball game, where can you take them?”

    Come on, these kids live in San Francisco, at their age they’ve already been schooled on how to perform every sexual abberation known to man (at taxpayer expense of course), they didn’t hear or see anything they haven’t witnessed (probably live in a downtown parade) numerous times before.

  • Rusty Shackelford

    Can Gloria be sued for taking up valuable space?

  • Nacho

    It was too funny to be a SNL clip, was it from The Onion?

    Roger McDoubtful has found a perfect home in the classless Atlanta Braves organization. His actions were so offensive, yet the dad had no problem having his lil angels sit there while the whole thing was repeated/reenacted in front of the press by this publicity whore “laywer”. That action with the bat though, that was hawt. It gave me wood!

  • mlb

    So Cringe worthy…. I love how she made it slow motion for the benefit of he cameras. This woman know how to take a photo op. Why were the creepy “Shining” twins holding papers, so they could follow along with Gloria?

    Good thing she didn’t have Tiger Wood’s girlfriend demonstrate their actions (I shudder) or the press conference could only by shown on the HBO.

    I really feel for the family. If you can’t take your kids to a baseball game, where can you take them?

    Forget that sentiment. Who in their right mind would take their kids to San Francisco?

    And since Gloria Alred is a “fame-whoring spectacle”, is Mediaite editor Colby Hall going to right an outrageously outraged attack article against her, or does he reserve that only for people who challenge Obama?

    writer, you have got to stop! I haven’t gotten the image of RRK running around the
    desert in his “Assless Jeans” out of my head yet.
    Boss tells me to stop laughing so much and get my ass back to work.
    Only thing saves me is I am the Boss! lollol

    Little Angels sitting there all Rosey Cheek in pretty Pinks, counting
    their money, weren’t they!
    Good Lord you can’t make this stuff up!!
    LMAO

    Gloria Allred is an abortion.

    The ultimate ambulance chaser.

    How does this woman get taken seriously at all anymore?

  • GoneFishing

    One needs props in the theater of the absurd… but why did she need the guy to help her with the bat?

  • Keaton

    The girl on the left smirks a few times. Watch when Gloria says” rear end”. She is the only real one there.

  • Tedderman

    It appears obvious that this was the closest to sex Gloria Alred had come in a very long time.
