METAL MIKE PIAZZA RETIRES

Mike Piazza with Zakk WyldeSez Maura @ Idolator:

What, you didn’t honestly think I was going to let the retirement of Major League Baseball’s No. 1 metal fan/Belle and Sebastian muse pass without comment, did you?

Touche, minus the Belle and Sebastian part.

Maybe he’ll rediscover his old pastimes of drums and guitar in retirement, or go back to jamming with Overkill.

    Thanks for the current photo. ;)

    So, is it going to bum you guys out when he goes to Cooperstown in a Dodgers uni?

    Certainly appropriate that a metalhead was the hardest hitting catcher of all time.

    is it true that Piazza is gay?

    Piazza has repeatedly denied being gay. But the bigger question is: Who the fuck cares?

  • Nick

    not being homophobic. just wondering because of all the rumors over the years…

    Mike, loved you in the MLB, loved you even more when you were accidentally leaking Axl’s record. Do more of that since your retired now. Kthx.

    Nick, try to comment on the metalosity of the posts. MetalSucks comment threads are not the best place to get laid.

    With that said, by all means, go for it.
