Brandon Inge is some sort of freak

I'm not sure if it's more disturbing that the rest of the team treats its starting third baseman like a circus sideshow or that the Free Press uses the term "private parts" in referring to Inge's...well...I don't know what. But, it is the 21st Century and I guess I just had the crazy, optimistic idea that the sports media would have evolved to the point where it had created a tidy, yet not too juvenile term for such things. I feel like they're just one step away from "pee-pee" here and at this point that's mildly disappointing considering the genre--sportswriters--probably needs to refer to genitalia a bit more than the rest of the people who write news stories.
