Around SBN: Randy Moss A Raven?

The underwears habits of your San Diego Padres

Have you ever wondered what the boys got going on under their uniforms?

Me neither, dude. Seriously.

However, jbox and I had dinner with several ladies on Friday night who felt the need to let us know that some, if not all, of the ladies in the house do wonder. And through the miracle of modern binocular technology and deductive reasoning when looking for underwears lines, they gave us some notes.

Also, as an aside, why do women go to the trouble of hiding their underwears lines? Do they want guys to think that they aren't wearing underwears? If that's true, then why are women self conscious about their nipples? They take all the pains to hide bra straps and unseemly lines, but they also would prefer that their nipples not respond to various environmental stimulus like the cold, or a strong gusty wind, or tune in tokyo.

Anyways, from jbox's notes...

  • Brian Giles - Bicycle shorts style underwears. You'd think that Gilly would be the commando of the bunch, but apparently, his tendency towards nudity behind the scenes doesn't affect his desire to prevent chafing of the field on the field, if you know what I mean.

  • Loretta and Khalil - Boxer briefs. Comfy and yet practical. Modest when changing. If you're planning on turning a really smoove double play, you have to be exactly on the same page as your counterpart. Apparently, that same page has a paragraph or two on underwears.

  • Aki - Tighty whities. Kickin' old school. Also, the ladies felt the need to tell us that they were perving Aki one game and they noticed that Aki seemed especially excited about something going on in the bullpen. Especially excited. I won't say no more other than it's good to know that Aki can have a nice healthy time of it if he has to.

  • Ramon Hernandez - Commando. I'll give you ladies a moment or two to catch your breaths. Swoon if you must... OK... Jbox and I were kinda wondering about the idea of Ramon going commando considering that of all the guys on the team, he'd have to be the one guy guaranteed to be wearing a cup, but they said they couldn't find any lines on the guy. If you've ever worn a jock strap and cup before, then you'll know that there kinda has to be some lines. Specifically under the butt cheeks, you'd have to expect a couple of elastic bands, but the ladies said that nothing of the sort was going on. Where could he be hiding that stuff? A mystery to be sure.
Also, they gave their opinions that Khalil looks like Owen Wilson and Mike TV from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory looks like a 10 year old Trevor Hoffman. Both facts which you may or may not have noticed, but they also mentioned that Clay Hensley looks exactly like Lucas from Days of Our Lives. An observation which I'm very proud to say means absolutely nothing to me.

Funny post
Hoffman does look like Mike TV. That's pretty funny.

As for why chicks try to hide underwear lines. I think it's because the lines define the actual size of their buttocks or chestal area.  Many girls wear pants or shirts to hide or accentuate certain areas.

If you see the underwear line, then you know how big their buttocks really are (as if we couldn't already....stupid women).

Same with the chestal region.  With the advent of pushup bras, etc....women want to hide what's making their figure look so good. That or they don't want to look trailerish by showing a bra strap.

the answers
chicks, believe it or not, are not hiding underwear lines from boys.  We hide them from other chicks.  I understand that guys like to think all wardrobe decisions revolve around them.  But the truth is, other chicks think you're trashy if they can see lines.

Then...
wouldn't it be easier if all girls just agreed that it wasn't trashy...then you wouldn't have to worry about pleasing one another needlessly?

Barbie dolls
I think that Barbie dolls will have to start having unsightly underwears lines so that little girls feel like it's OK to wear underwears.

We have to start solving the problem at the source!

same as...
when girls agree not to give each other gifts.  It just doesn't work.  You still have to get something for your friend.
It's never needless to please one another.

by Boo on Nov 21, 2005 10:51 AM PST up reply actions  

but.....
giving up something to please everyone is better.  Wouldn't all girls be happy if that rule was thrown out?

I know though...one girl would hide her lines and it'd screw it up for everyone.

Finally, an offseason post with significance...
I'm glad Dex and jbox have acknowledged the importance of this issue and have provided us with this forum for a meaningful discussion of player's undergarments.  This issue has far-reaching impacts on the game of baseball.

I see no mention however of Ryan's leopard print bikini underwear.  So hot.  Perhaps they are saving that for later.

As far as Ramon possibly going commando, I can imagine (and have on many an occasion) that to be true.  The man is such a stud, he probably challenges his pitching staff to "throw it in there" as a test of his manliness.

Bravo, Dex and jbox.  Thank you for your diligence.

Rynowear
FWIW, this pic illustrates what Ryno wears (or doesn't wear)...at least while he's doing pre-game stretching.

He does look like Lucas!
Wow, I didn't realize that. Can we get you guys to give up Hensley somehow? Anyway, not that most of you guys are interested, but when it comes to players being "excited" on the field, I think Matt Holliday has to take the cake. I swear, like every other game I go to, it looks like he packed an extra sock down there.

Also, in regards to girls hiding their lines, besides Boo's good point, I think it also has to do with us just being more clothes conscious in general, we actually take the time to see how what we're wearing  makes us look before we step outside. Boys just don't seem to care if they look ridiculous 80% of the time.

Sorry, for the interruption, just thought I'd share.

Wait just a minute
Khalil and Owen Wilson are NOT the same person?  Where is AnonKGFan with our indisputable DNA evidence to the contrary?  Time to go undercover AnonKGFan!  Get the proof!

by teemcee on Nov 21, 2005 4:46 PM PST reply actions  

Wow
If we are ever able to get interviews with the players, we should totally send AnonKGFan to do Khalil. Not do him do him. But do him. Like in an interview...

oh yeah
I had totally forgotten about the sliding pants. Mystery solved! Anonymous Hero to the rescue!

BURST
(that was my bubble)

Thanks Anonymous Hero.

Yeah, thanks.
The offseason suddenly seems much longer now.
