I'm from Atlanta, and I don't even understand it," Scott Wedner, 34, said. "Don't get me wrong, Chipper Jones is a good ball player, maybe even a Hall of Famer. He led our team to a World Series, and might be one of the top three switch-hitters in the history of the game. But he's Chipper Jones, you know?

That article actually pissed me off.

Who cares who a kid likes. I grew up loving Chipper and also was decked out in Mizuno. Kinda rubbed me the wrong way with how blown away everyone was. I swear to god…..Anyone not from the south just has this absolute high and mighty attitude and their perceived superiority.

It’s not completely uncommon to have Chipper fans. The highschool kid in Tampa that had 4 no hit games in row said his favorite player was Chipper. If you look close at his clips he sports the mizuno batting gloves and bat bag. Just saying……….. there are chipper fans out there.

LOL its the Onion, there really isn’t ever a point, though picking Chipper out of all the guys out there is a little weird. But maybe thats why they did it.
