Man, this is cool,


There was a baseball game yesterday
where Randy Johnson (one of the hardest throwing pitchers in baseball)
strikes a dove that flys by.  He does his normal pitch and a dove flys in
the way and gets killed.  All you see is a big explosion of feathers.
It's awesome.


As for a link, here's one in Realplayer,

Warning, EXPLODING DOVE!

If I had an arm like that I'd be content with trying to peg squirrels with baseballs or rocks rather than shoot them with my 223Rem, granted the distances would be a little closer but being able to say something like "Me squash squirrel with rock, me barbarian" would just be sooooooo COOL!

Gotta get this up to the top where it will get some exposure.

I saw this on Fox News Channel.  Damn that bird looked like it just exploded.  Randy did'nt think it was funny but the guy up above must have.  As for me, it was'nt funny per say but it sure looked pretty dang cool on the tube. [:D]

A similar incident happened a few years ago in Toronto at skydome.   But in that case the bird in question was a seagull.  However here in Canada it is illegal to kill seagulls and true to form the player was charged under the wildlife act and had to pay a fine.....ONLY IN CANADA!!!  Makes me want to weep :(
