    It's good to see that Peter is sticking to his diet.

    The other guy is either Dusty Rhodes or Ken Patera.

    "Other guy" looks to be holding a "Gimme Cap"

    Can someone confirm that's Joe McDonnell, minus about 150 lbs.?

    Look at the guy on the right in the lime green shirt. Is he standing in awe of PK?

    tunison is a little younger, and wearing a "rated rookie" t-shirt, to rival PK for being underdressed

    So if the Twins play the Padres in the World Series, will PK's head explode?

    I'm just surprised King (of the shills) took the sticker off the brim of his cap.

    That was my first thought as well.

    He had the gastric bypass surgery a couple of years ago. Unfortunately, it did not make him less of a blowhard or wannabe "FRIEND!!!!!" to athletes.

    Probably, no one was talking to McDonnell, so he grabbed the only other media member who dressed like he should be pumping gas.

    But one's in the NL and the other in the AL!

    "So this kid's at my door, pulling a big wagon loaded with old clothes, and I say to him, 'You're sending ALL that stuff to Haiti?'

    "And he's telling me how he's collecting for the tornado victims, or whatever happened over there, blah blah blah, my blackberry's buzzing every two seconds, I'm waiting for several calls from Jerry Jones and possibly a Manning...and I see on the bottom of the pile, you won't believe this, an old green Packers jersey, #4! That someone is giving away! Incredible!

    "And I think to myself, is anyone, ANYONE, in all of Haiti going to appreciate that jersey? So thinking fast, I point across the street and shout, 'Hey! Look over there, isn't that Troy Polamalu?! Which of course it wasn't, it was the neighbor's cleaning lady taking in the trash cans, but while the kid was racing across the street to get an autograph, I snatched the jersey! And what the heck, the kid got an autograph, right? Are you getting all this down, p-o-l-a-m...oh hell, your desk guy will know....

    "So anyway, there was also this terrific Padres shirt and Twins cap, and at the last second I also noticed a pair of barely-worn Dodgers boxers, here, you gotta look at these, hold my latte..."

    Maybe. He's also Ian O'Connor of the Bergen Record.
