When Nature Calls

    According to Deadspin, during Monday night's game with the Phillies, NY Mets outfielder Angel Pagan had to use the bathroom so bad he ended up missing his at-bat.  "Apparently Pagan 'felt a rumble at the end of the fourth' and ended up spending a significant portion of the fifth shitting, while his coach screamed his name from the dugout in vain."  
    Funny stuff.  Nobody thinks about these things while a game is going on.  Sometimes you see players head down the tunnel during a hockey game or go into the clubhouse during a baseball game.  Usually it is due to injury or an equipment repair like getting your skates sharpened.  Every so often you have a guy like Pagan who just can't wait to use the bathroom.  I think it's happened to all of us.  When nature calls, you answer.  You wouldn't want to pull a George Brett and shit your pants like he does (check video below).  I would have loved to see his manager and the rest of the guys on the team yelling at him.  That is must see TV.  The Mets have listed Pagan as day-to-day with a stomach virus.
