I'm not quite sure when this picture was taken, but I'd venture to guess it was snapped during one of the M's first two home games this season.
Anyways, as you can see, former Mariner Jay Buhner there is getting quite comfortable with Willie Bloomquist's and Raul Ibañez's um, assets.
I don't really know what direction to take this in, so I'll defer to Lookout Landing's Positive Paul :
Seriously. Back in the days of Griffey, Edgar, A-Rod and Buhner, Buhner was my favorite. I loved the other guys, sure, but, man Buhner, I really miss the craziness he and Jr. would display in the outfield during pitching warmups, etc.Well, that's one way to look at it.
I'm still a HUGE Buhner fan. But, man, does the dude have issues. How can you not love a guy that does this to "Bill"?

Here's the story behind the picture:
It was Opening Day, and the M's invited the three members of the Mariners' Hall of Fame -- Alvin Davis, Dave Niehaus, and Jay Buhner -- to simultaneously throw out the ceremonial first pitch. I grabbed this shot right as they were posing for the post-pitch picture. Henri Cartier-Bresson would be proud...
