Professional athletes sadly have to hear a lot of awful and stupid things being yelled at them by fans who never came close to having the talent they have because if the fans had that talent they wouldn’t be fans – they’d be professional athletes.
Last night in San Francisco, for instance, Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil was at the plate in a 6-2 game when a fan could be heard yelling at McNeil about the size of his legs and how he had no power and that he should work out more. I’m guessing the fan should probably work out more, too, but that’s besides the point here.
The point here is that McNeil instantly made the fan look like a fool by doing this:
Heckler: "Hey McNeil, work out those legs, you've got no power, no power McNeil"

How great was that? Good for McNeil.
