Vernon Wells: "Blessed to be a Blessing"

[FabulousFabregas]

Vernon's new catchphrase, from Twitter, that he tweeted to Bill Hall, is "Blessed to be a Blessing."

[tdawg87]

Is he becoming self-aware?

[HeavenlyHalos]

I blame Canada that he's making so much money. Hopefully we get our revenge tomorrow. I predict a 6-3 victory.

[ukyah]

perhaps i don't speak wellsish, but does that even make sense?

[ELEVEN]

Is he becoming self-aware?

Hahahaha, I sharted!

[Eric]

It's finally dawned on him that he's getting paid a King's Ransom to be an Angels fan. He gets to go to all the games, hang out with the players, listen in on the closed door meetings, and wear Angels red the whole time without the everyday grind of actually having to perform at the highest level.

Yeah, I'd say that too if I were him.

[Redondo]

Wells is something else.

[Corona]

Jose Mota must have hacked his account.

No, and it's incredibly redundant.

[bucbrett]

I'll be thrilled to be a thrilling when 2014 is through.

[YouthofToday]

At least he is going with the joke he started. I wish the guy well.

Too blessed to make cents.

[ukyah]

Too blessed to make cents.

this is either a common internet occurrence or the work of genius.

Wells and Trout yucking it up together Saturday night at the WBC game. Americans win 6-2 over Italy, yea! Looks like they had some pretty decent seats to spectate.

AngelsWin members holler when they contemplate all those dollars.

It's also the one thing every opponents announcer brings up when calling the games:

"Now here's Vernon Wells, owed $42M the next two years." <horrible batting average is shown on screen> "That's right, Vernon Wells -- The Angels 4th outfielder -- will personally make more than the combined Astros payroll this year"

"Now here's Vernon Wells, owed $82M the next two years." <horrible batting average is shown on screen> "That's right, Vernon Wells -- The Angels 4th outfielder -- will personally make more than the combined Astros payroll this year"

 

Wow that's a lot of money ... better check again

Edited. $42M not $82M.The Astros Payroll though is about $24M as of now -- still less than what Wells is getting from the Angels and Toronto (still paying $3.5M or so of Vernon's signing bonus)

The Blessing just botched a Willie Mays catch.

If Vernon can fill the mentor role to Mike Trout that Torii Hunter filled last year, at least there will be a contribution, even if it's intangible.

Vernon is an intangible blessing.

Luckily Sky Net should catch all of the pop ups.

Case-by-case basis. Take the latter if you want to reach my heights.
