This Phillies fan is a bigger boob than Dolly Parton's right breast.

Fans such as Matthew Mervine give Philly sports fanatics a bad reputation. Most of the time, the average Philly fan is knowledgeable and passionate; they are deemed extremely bright and can analyze games and situations better than many paid TV color guys.

Mervine, 22, of Berlin, N.J., is a moron. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, he was arrested on Thursday and charged with stealing three Phillies World Series rings.

There are two major problems with his pathetic theft attempt. First, he was ejected earlier in the day for being rowdy, and had also completed a job application at the ballpark with his real name, address, phone number and other personal information.

Let’s just say the cops caught him easier than Matt Holliday does fly balls.

In addition to getting caught, Mervine didn’t even steal the right rings. Instead of the blinging $11,000 World Series rings, he stole three rings valued at just $1,100 each. The rings were intended for team scouts.

This moron deserves to be sentenced to live for one month dressed as a dog in the Vick household.

    As a former sports editor, I understand your point of view. If I were writing for a newspaper or objective news format, I would absolutely leave my one-liners out of my pieces. However, blogs are different by nature.
