So the infamous question, who would ya rather be? Two coveted positions in sports, the bullpen catcher vs the backup quarterback. Both positions are known for there ability to chill with the professional athletes all while not having to do any actual work. One popular argument is to always go baseball over football because its so much more fun to hang out in the sun spitting seeds and cleaning your enframes. Valid. Baseball by nature is a chill sport, and here we celebrate chill stuff. But heres the flaw with the bullpen catcher, he's not really considered on the team. Granted at no point will he ever be called upon to play, but he isnt getting the spotlight, pussy, or pay the pretty boy backup qb's get. The backup quarterback still rolls with the team entourage, pounds box, and gets recognized at the local sportsbar. The bullpen catcher will never experience these wonderful things. The other advantage the backup qb gets is that tom brady, matt cassell, or caleb haney type moment that people dream about. When the starting qb even gets touched hard the camera always finds the shithead backup. And even if he goes in , who gives a fuck if he fucks up? Most fans have already given up the game at that point. The media nevers comes hard at the backup....It will all be talk about how the starter got hurt. And what if the backup goes in and balls out? ... The answer is so much box in his face that his head will spin. So im putting the backup qb spot in a close win over the bullpen catcher as my #1 job in sports. And P.S who wants their job description to be "Squats down and gets balls thrown at him"
( pun intended)
