Whatever. He’s still better off than if he had thrown his shoe at Saddam Hussein or one of his sons. Those shoes would have been on his feet as they entered the wood chipper first. Ungrateful idiot.

Maybe he’s getting a generous portion of Springsteen. Let the decibels begin.

American journalists must have trained him. He probably knows Adam Clymer personally.

As the venerable Ed Sullivan has stated a thousand times via his show, "It's going to be a BIG shoe, a REALLY BIG shoe..."

Also he can not move his right arm.

Guess he'll be on the disable roster then.

But that shouldn't be a problem. Since he can't pitch, he can catch for a while.

Investigate the claims.

If true, there are idiots that need to be punished.

This individual is high profile. Any mistreatment will get attention.
