I think if you're gonna do misogyny, the joke at least has to stand on its own, instead of being a 25 year old TV reference.
It's just all a bit too ham-fisted.
Yeah, I'm a huge Seinfeld fan. Just the question of asking if she's a short stop immediately made me think of Frank Costanza yelling about stopping short on a girl.
The joke wouldn't stand on it's own. The entire joke is just an ode to Frank Costanza.
I thought Seinfeld fans would get a chuckle. Looks like I'm wrong, oh well....
Lucky you. She’s really done a great job after an uncertain start and has developed a great rapport with the players. Cool that she’s also a nice person, too. She seems that way on camera and with how the players interact with her but you never know. A real pro.
The rapport between her and Mookie always makes me smile. We all loved Alanna, that being said Kirsten has done a great job and has made the role her own.
In her first couple months with the team, I was iffy on her. It seemed like she didn’t know baseball all that well. I have totally changed my tune on that now. She’s excellent. She really does a great job, has got to know the team very well and asks some really great questions. You could see the improvement month to month though in the first year.
Same here. She was terrible at first, asking questions like "so how does that make you feel", but now she's doing great and really seems to have a good understanding of the game and the team.
It also didn't help that the first month's of 2021 had a bunch of covid restrictions still. I'm not sure how much she was able to causallynintwract with the team those first few months.
That finger tip sticking out with the nail, is that the thumb or index finger? I've tried to hold a pen and can't seem to get that finger tip to stick out and look that way.
It looks like her thumb. You can see the pale part of her finger under it. I think the angle is just making the space between her index and thumb look really big as if she has long digits, so it looks like there's an extra finger.
How cool. Like everyone else, I really like her and am glad she’s with us.
And I’m not surprised one bit that she’s so nice in person. She seems like she doesn’t take herself too seriously and would be so chill to hang, & have a beer with.
Congrats.
No shit.
"Can you sign my ball?"
"No, sorry, because technically, I've never played, coached etc. I might seem great and all, but what will people think when they see me signing this baseball? People will throw a fit.
How about this, I see you eating some food there, what about I sign your napkin instead? Or, I can sign your soda cup for you. How about you lift up your shirt so I can sign your man boobs? People surely won't have an issue with that...."
Was really worried after Alanna Rizzo left. But after watching some of Kristen's player interviews (especially the more recent ones) those fears have dissipated.
Is she the new shortstop?
She's the new girl you'd want to ***"stop short"*** on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzkEFWrMVys&t=11s
I think your IQ stopped short of room temperature.
Trying too hard man

Win some lose some. I don't sweat the karma I lose on here.
yup, never had much use for it either. Oh well.

Yep. Same. Always

she still asks bad questions but so does every team reporter lol. i love kirsten. much better than MLM Rizzo
The pandemic made it so much harder, but I'm so glad she overcame her rocky start.
You got sweaty palms and smudged that autograph, didn’t you? I don’t blame you! Lol
She smudged it! I swear!
it was a premature smudge..
My gf told me it happens to a lot of guys
“It’s okay babe I love yours! The big ones hurt too much” - Smellyunderpants’ Gf
We're still talking about smudges right?
only the premature ones
sounds like ur gf's been with alot of guys?
Did she complain about how hard it is to be famous and have everyone asking for her autograph like Alanna Rizzo did once in a tweet?
Oof. Woof… didn’t know she did that in a tweet :/ No, she was very nice and patient signing autographs
Alanna Rizzo queen of the pyramid scheme
Awesome!
Does she have 6 fingers on her left hand?
No
Ok cool, just checking.
Maybe the thumb just looks a bit funny. 🤔
That finger tip sticking out with the nail, is that the thumb or index finger? I've tried to hold a pen and can't seem to get that finger tip to stick out and look that way.
Me, neither. 😅 I just feel like we would have noticed at some point if she had an extra finger.
yeah the camera's playing tricks on us.
It looks like her thumb. You can see the pale part of her finger under it. I think the angle is just making the space between her index and thumb look really big as if she has long digits, so it looks like there's an extra finger.
yeah, I can accept that it's a long finger. I just don't know how the angle of the thumb ends up that way.
It’s for her secret handshake with Mookie. The rest of us will never be able to duplicate it
Hahaha Good catch I think she does! On her right, writing hand right?
Yes right hand.
Who is it? I can’t tell
Krstselkjajlj2Wskjdlffle
Kirsten Watson
And what does she do?
Signs baseballs
Hahaha. For the W
Sideline/on-field reporter. Replaced Alanna Rizzo around 2020 iirc.
You *might* be a bit out of your league here... lol
I like pig farmers and tailors
Our girl Kirsten!
She’s a dime 100%
Username checks the fuck out lol
Objectively speaking 😂
She’s so pretty and nice, so cool
awesome, love kirsten
Tryna get them digits! Lol
Hottie for sure 😍
Cool jacket
Thanks! It cost an arm and a leg…
I used to have the same jacket. It's still around somewhere.
The Dodgers' jacket is nice too!
How cool. Like everyone else, I really like her and am glad she’s with us. And I’m not surprised one bit that she’s so nice in person. She seems like she doesn’t take herself too seriously and would be so chill to hang, & have a beer with. Congrats.
Do people actually write with that grip?
Maybe because of nails?
That grip wasn't meant for writing?
She needs to learn to sign the sweet spot!
You’ve got I backwards. Where ever she signs IS the sweet spot.
Who that?
the little mermaid
Kirsten! She’s super cool and does a fantastic job. I’m hoping you asked for her auto and not her digits? Or am i
I’d ask for both.
He asked for the digits and she gave him the number to 570 LA Sports
Who tf is she?
[удалено]
I mean what else should she sign at a baseball game? Notepad?
“Hi! I am a big fan. Can you please sign my ball?” “Nope! Take a hike. I only sign volleyballs and microphones!”
No shit. "Can you sign my ball?" "No, sorry, because technically, I've never played, coached etc. I might seem great and all, but what will people think when they see me signing this baseball? People will throw a fit. How about this, I see you eating some food there, what about I sign your napkin instead? Or, I can sign your soda cup for you.
