It used to be that birds on the baseball field knew. They heard tales of Randy Johnson obliterating them from the mound, or being struck in the outfield — but these lazy young birds have no respect for history. Just look at this effing bird.
Bird: “I got it!”

This avian lollygagger refused to flap its wings until Paul Goldschmidt came over and tapped it on the back. On the one hand it’s nice to see a bird that’s not afraid of people, on the other it could have interrupted a very important play in a baseball game. Where’s the respect?
Lazy bird. “Foul” indeed.
