Well, howdy folks! Let’s jaw about this fella, Bryce Harper. Heard tell he’s a big deal in that baseball thing. You know, the game with the bats and balls and runnin’ around. My grandpappy used to play somethin’ like that, but they called it “rounders” back then. Anyways, this Bryce fella, he’s got folks talkin’.
What’s all the hubbub about?
Seems like he’s been doin’ a whole heap of yakkin’ himself, speakin’ to big crowds and such. They say he gave a speech or somethin’ at some big ballpark, “Citizens Bank Park,” they called it. Thanked folks for yellin’ at him and for cheerin’ him on, guess that’s just how them city folk show they care. Sounded like a real howler, that crowd, must’ve been louder than a pack of coyotes on a full moon night.
What’s this fella say?
He talks about lovin’ baseball, says if you’re a real fan, you just wanna watch the game. Ain’t that the truth? Don’t need all them fancy rules and changes, just throw the ball and hit it, simple as that. These youngsters these days, always tryin’ to speed things up. Good things take time, I always say. Like a good pot roast or a hand-stitched quilt. Can’t rush perfection, can ya?
- He likes the game pure and simple.
- He appreciates the fans, even the noisy ones.
- He ain’t too fond of all these newfangled rules.
He seems like a real character, this Bryce.
They say he’s like that fella, “Oscar Wilde,” never heard of him myself, but apparently, he was a smooth talker. Guess Bryce is the same, always got somethin’ to say. Walked right into that clubhouse, big as you please, after a game or somethin’. Heard tell he even got the owner of the team admittin’ he wasn’t payin’ him enough! Can you believe that? A fella admittin’ he ain’t payin’ enough. Land sakes, that’s a new one.
More than just baseball, I reckon.
This Bryce fella, he ain’t just about bats and balls, he’s got a whole life outside of that. Heard he’s part of that church, the one with the “Latter-day Saints.” Guess he’s a God-fearin’ man. They say he’s got a personality too, strong-willed, they call it. Speaks his mind, doesn’t beat around the bush. Reminds me a bit of my old Bessie, that mule always knew her own mind. Probably stubborn as a mule too, this Bryce.
Heard tell he’s a winner.
Won a bunch of them “MVP” awards, whatever that means. Must be good at hittin’ that ball, I reckon. And they say he was born way out west, in Las Vegas. Never been that far myself, heard it’s a whole different world out there. Bright lights and fancy livin’. Not like here, where the only light you see at night is the stars and the fireflies.
So, what’s the final word on Bryce Harper?
Well, I reckon he’s a talker, a baseball whiz, a God-fearin’ fella with a strong will, and maybe a bit underpaid. He loves the game, respects the fans, and ain’t afraid to speak his mind. Sounds like a decent fella to me, even if he does talk a bit too much for my taste. But hey, that’s just how them city folk are, always got somethin’ to say. Me? I prefer the quiet life, sittin’ on the porch, watchin’ the sun go down. But I guess it takes all kinds to make a world, and Bryce Harper’s just one of ‘em. A colorful one, that’s for sure. He’s got folks talkin’, and that’s somethin’, ain’t it?
Final thoughts on the matter.
He’s from Vegas and sounds like a hard worker. And I reckon that is all there is to it. Just a fella doin’ his best, like the rest of us. And if he happens to win a few awards and get folks riled up along the way, well, that’s just part of the show, ain’t it?
