Memo To Tim Lincecum. Grunge Went Out In the 90s. Update Your Look


Lincecum is on the right.


Wearing a knit cap in St. Louis in the middle of July is a fashion no no. You're not a Starbucks barrista. You're a big leaguer. Dress like one.

4. Have you been to Seattle?
Some people seemed to think it never left.

This is not a very dressy city.

There are plenty of big hair women walking around NJ.

17. Listen to all of the conservatives criticize his obviously progressive
appearance.

Sorry we don't conform to the GOP dress code here on the West Coast.

If anyone here was being honest, you'd be able to admit that Lincecum is the dude who looks like he belongs on our side, compared to prick assholes like:

18. So you post a picture of an oddball from the Liberal EAST Coast and
try and represent the EAST coast as FReeperland?

:wtf:

Once again you have taken yourself to level of stupidity rarely seen on DU.

20. He has a West Coast bias. The East Coast bias stuff is projecting.
Inferiority complexes do that to people I've heard. :)

22. Well they do say those that scream the loudest are trying to cover up
for the lack of something else. Kind of like Hummer drivers.

23. For the Lincecum haters, he's criticized for not dressing up enough and
having the nerve to not wear a shirt in the summer.

At look at those shorts!11 Why isn't he wearing slacks.

Oh the humanity. :eyes:

29. I'm posting them to illustrate the ridiculous premise of the OP.
Lincecum dresses his age and there's nothing wrong with it .. except for the people with the East Coast/anti Giants bias.

34. Yes, The Age of 90s Grunge
Not the modern age. Also, did I ever say that he had to dress up in a suit and tie? No. I said update your look.

31. We're not denigrating his appearance, we are mocking your two's assinine stupidity!
BTW, I'm surprised you two idiots are trying to imply that us east coasters are FReepers. Hey, we were not the state that recalled our governor to install a repuke.

You two doth protestest too much. Apparently you two are jealous of the east coast.

37. He needs to grow up.
He's the starting pitcher in the all star game, not appearing for a voice-over on Southpark. Tho other pics posted of him are fine, everything appropriate to time and place. Grunge was an anti-fashion statement, to argue that appearing at a public event, which is basically being held in your honor, and thumb your nose at public standards of decorum, juust argues for the lowest common denominator, and no standards, whatsoever. 1-0 AL.

39. Oh my god he is better dressed then the guy on the right
People are taking this way too seriously, especially for a nicely dressed man. It's not like he is wearing an 80's Michael Jackson leather jacket with a glittery glove.

47. Oh boy


Yavin4:

"All this progress -- phooey! In my day, we didn't have these cash machines that would give you money when you needed it. There was only one bank in each state -- it was open only one hour a year. And you'd get in line, seventeen miles long, and the line became an angry mob of people -- fornicators and thieves, mutant children and circus freaks -- and you waited for years and by the time you got to the teller, you were senile and arthritic and you couldn't remember your own name. You were born, got in line, and ya died! And that's the way it was and we liked it!
