Kyle Kendrick prank

Most of you have probably already seen this, but I ran across it today and thought I'd post it just in case. This is probably the best prank of all time.

 

if anyone has any better prank please post it.......

 

I also think that this video shows what kendrick is like as a person. Even though he thought he was getting traded to japan, he took it with class.

 

Wow...that was one of the all time best. to have so many involved and nobody leaked it to kendrick was a miracle. A fitting end to this story: Brett Myers, the instigator of this prank, was just sent down to AAA because of performance. I wonder if he thought that was a prank.

LRBballer- did you hear about the Cleveland coach and his car during spring training?

 

i didnt....i'd love to hear about it though. by the way, tell braves jr to go get fitted for a tux and call the measurements in to mister tuxedo in hickory........he headed to WU?

 

they should have put him on the plane and waited for a call from japan.

 

Braves,
Is this the story you were talking about?

Cubs coach punk'd by pitchers
By Paul Sullivan, 4:30 p.m.


MESA, Ariz. -- The Cubs were heading out to practice Tuesday morning at HoHoKam Park when Aramis Ramirez went up to strength and conditioning coach Tim Buss.

"Hey Bussy, what's your car doing on the ramp?" Ramirez asked, pointing to a wrecked '95 Nissan sitting on a ramp near the Cubs bullpen.

Buss looked over at the wreck and replied: "That's not my car."

But then Buss did a double-take.

"Dude," he said to Ramirez. "That's my car!"

Buss, who had just driven the car to work, soon discovered that it had been demolished beyond recognition by some unknown perpetrators and brought to the ramp for him to see. He was aware that the pitchers liked to pull pranks, like a couple years ago in Mesa when they stole Will Ohman's tires and left his car on cinder blocks. But this was no ordinary prank. The car windows had all been smashed in, the front, back and sides were all severely dented, and the smoking guns -- a couple baseball bats and balls -- were strategically placed in the windshield in case Buss wanted to get some fingerprints for the Mesa Police.

But it didn't take a CSI team to figure out the perpetrators. Buss figured it was the "usual suspects" all along.

"I figured (Jon) Lieber, (Kerry) Wood immediately, (Ryan) Dempster," he said. "Then I realized it was every pitcher we have."

The Cubs players went on about their business and continued the workout while Buss silently fumed and wondered how he was going to tell his wife, who was the owner of the car.

"It's a shame," Lieber said with a straight face. "What kind of person would do something like that? It really just shocks me. I'm sure she'll understand."

After the workout ended, Buss was talking about the incident to reporters in the Cubs clubhouse when Dempster told him to "quit pouting" and come with him to the weight room to "see something." From there, Buss and several pitchers walked out a back door and found a 2008 Nissan Xterra parked in the walkway.

The prank was complete. Buss was presented with a new SUV valued at around $25,000. While he sat in the driver's seat in a daze, Carlos Zambrano got in on the passenger's side and cranked the stereo, bobbing his head to the music.

"I thought they lost their mind," Buss said. "I thought, 'I'm going to have to call Dr. Phil and have a team meeting. I couldn't figure out what they were doing."

Buss was nearly moved to tears by the players' generosity.

"They're great guys," he said.
