If You Boo Chase Utley, He'll Boo You Right Back and Add a Little Something

There must have been a lot of Met fans at Yankee Stadium last night. When Chase Utley got introduced before the Home Run Derby, he was greeted by a chorus of boos the Bronx usually reserves for Red Sox. He didn't take all that kindly to the reaction. Thanks to The 700 Level for the video which has language that isn't safe for work or the easily offended.

Utley apologized after the event but it's hard to see how you could get that bent out of shape about his slip of the tongue. It's obviously not meanspirited and if networks want to avoid capturing young men speaking like young men often do, then they should probably refrain from miking them.
