    Mike Milbury believes that shoes should not be used for throwing but rather for administering a beating.

    I don't know, Shoeless Al-Zaidi doesn't have the same ring to it as did for Joe Jackson.

    Once again the band Rooney is thrown back into relevancy.

    In a related story, former Pirate Derek Bell was spotted picking up the shoes, before running back to his shack...

    Nikita Khrushchev thinks there are better dramatic gestures you can make with a shoe.

    The sole reason al-Zaidi is being considered by the Pirates is because of his ability to heel his temper, pick himself up by his bootstraps, and keep his tongue in cheek.

    The Toronto Raptors have followed suit by signing last night's Pop-a-Shot champion at Dave & Buster's to start at shooting guard.

    My favorite part of this story was that MSNBC went out of their way to report that in Arab culture, throwing a shoe at someone is a sign of disrespect.

    @OokieDookie: I've thought this was hilarious too. Like throwing a shoe at someone's head in another country would be acceptable social customs.

    You know he's gonna have shoes thrown at him for all of his post-presidency. I just hope he gets it on a golf course from a fellow duffer.

    The Pirates will first have to wait until al-Zaidi goes through the US military's Gitmo Grapefruit League this coming early winter.

    If I was that guy, I would have thrown Bush some questions about state capitals or names of foreign leaders.
