Buckley: Don't flip out over Bautista homer

I’m losing my patience with these card-carrying Protectors of the Game who spit up their Maypo over the very thought of a big league ballplayer daring to express human emotions after doing something that inspires the expression of human emotions.

And, yes, I’m talking about Toronto Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista.

This is the evil man who on Wednesday hit a three-run homer in the seventh inning of his team’s 6-3 Division Series-clinching victory over the Texas Rangers and then disrespected the game by revealing his satisfaction with what he had just done. Hence the adjective: Evil.
