Groping Cardinals
Here's a photo that I received in my email (forwarded by Robert Avallone). My first impulse is to say that it looks real, though it's conceivable that someone whited out something that Jim Edmonds (on the right) was holding in his hand, making it look like he's groping Jason Marquis (on the left). I haven't been able to find any references to the photo online. Maybe this is an example of the 'Pope grope' that cardinals are said to use to check the gender of the Pope (following the Pope Joan debacle). Wait, no. Wrong type of Cardinals.

The bat was removed and his pants edited to look like they were pulled out.

Looks obviously Photoshopped to me - you can see how the pants are blurred and have no texture around the grope area.

This photograph is a classic example of a photoshop job, a poor one at that. There is a marked amount of blurriness in the area in question. This would be characteristic of someone erasing something (as Craig said).

It's real. Jim Edmonds has been known to do this as a joke. I don't think it's too funny though. He honked the guy's horn right there in Busch Stadium in front of over 17,581 paying customers. Let some guy come to your workplace and ring your bell and see if you like it. It's real.

Uhh... organized sports. Who understands them?

I dunno, it also looks like Edmonds is about to lean in for the kiss, too.... 
Looks photoshopped for sure.

Not so sure about the "pope grope". My info is that they have a special bottomless chair in which the candidate sits while the youngest cardinal pops his head underneath for a look to check the sex (not gender: that's a property of words, not people).
The grope seems too easy to fool.
Does anyone know for sure?

It's not Jason Marquis, it's Craig Paquette that is #21 in that awful Photoshop job. This has been around for years on gay sites, and it's a fraud.
Really, people need to do better work if they want us to believe it.
