Ichiro and his silver man-purse

I loved these items on benmaller.com:

The Phillie Phanatic was attacked Saturday morning by 93.3 WMMR DJ and Sixers' PA announcer Matt Cord's dog Scout. Cord was on air covering the line at the Wachovia Center box office, where tickets for The Police, playing this summer at Citizens Bank Park, went on sale...The Phanatic came outside of the Wachovia Center to start giving stuff away, when the mutt lunged at the lovable green goofball, prompting a man in line to shout that the dog "must be a Mets fan."

And this one about Ichiro Suzuki:

Former Mariners OF Jay Buhner is the master trash-talker, and Ichiro's wardrobe has provided a fine opportunity. Someone asked what Buhner would have done back in the day with Monday's ensemble, which included sparkly gold sneakers with a silver man purse. "We'd have dipped that (stuff), thrown it in the freezer and then taken it out right before he came off the field and hung it back up."

I desperately wanted to find a pic of Ichiro with this stuff on. That's almost as weird as the Ichiro Monchichi. Theme song, anyone?
"Monchichi, Monchichi, Oh so soft and cuddly..."

Don't make fun of my Mariners!! But then again, you would think with all of that money that he'd be able to pay someone to dress him. I guess not...
