We need more guys like that in the league.

(Caveat: I will give Alfmo his homerun swing given that he dedicated it to a little league baseball team he met in the preseason.)
I loved that about Riggo too. Always acted like he had been there before whenever he scored. I particularly liked it when he handed the ball to one of the Hogs and let them spike it and get a little well deserved limelight.
