As we anxiously await Chris Capuano's appearance on "The Young and the Restless," let's discuss him rocking out on a Segway, shall we?
Downtown dwellers shouldn't be surprised to see a major-league pitcher zip past them on a Segway. Although the personal scooters are becoming more common in bigger cities, they aren't exactly a fixture in Milwaukee.

"I'm the only one getting yelled at," Capuano said. "People just yell "Segway!" really loud or they'll say "Nerd!" or "Nerd alert!"

"People just don't understand. When I talk to people, I say "If you don't ride one, you don't understand how cool it is."
Ah Chris, you are wise to quote the great Will Smith song "People Just Don't Understand" in response to all the haters. Or was it "Parents Just Don't Understand" Smith sang? I can never remember.
