    You have a desk, Matt?

    I <3 Bobby V.

  4. mza4eva says:

    where can I see this film?

    • giuseppe franco_procede says:

      Viewings of this film can be seen at the Tribeca Film Festival. The director’s have been doing the local media circuit! Should be an interesting take at Japanese baseball. Plus, Bobby V is thought of as a God in Japan. Go Fig!

        At the risk of sounding a bit… when is the Tribeca Film Festival and how do I get tickets?

        • giuseppe franco_procede says:

          Sorry. I wrote the website in the comment section. I am sure it got filtered. No biggie, though. Just do a search for Tribeca Film Festival. From there just search for the film and it will give you all the showtime and locations. Enjoy! :0)

    Maybe Willie should put on some sweet fake glasses.

    And Bobby V, there was a guy who knew how to overuse a bullpen!

    I do miss Turk Wendell though.

  6. AlreadyMissShea says:

    I’d like to see Willie in a disguise next season. Dressing up like an analyst for MLB on Fox would be perfect.

  7. metsfan119 says:

    For some reason I could see the film requiring 3D glasses.

  8. NY Cuban says:

    I can’t imagine anyone following Willie around to see his captivating personality… I’m just saying…

  9. C Dubb says:

    Love him or hate him, there’s no denying the hugeness of Bobby V’s personality.

    I can still hear the fans chanting his name while he argued with the home plate umpire: Bobby! Bobby! Bobby! I’m not a Willie-basher, but I have yet to see the fans acknowledge Willie in any way during a game. I think that says something. Exactly what, I don’t know.

  10. LaGrandOrange says:

    I need to see Bobby V in electrical tape mustache and shades again. Classic.
