Can't Hit Like David Ortiz? You Can At Least Drive Like Him

It's been awhile since you've had to look at my smiling mug on here. I've been away on vacation, and just got back this week - and returned to a completely empty desk. My devious colleagues had squirreled away all the toys and various knickknacks I have on my desk (read: stuff my wife won't let me keep at home) and moved it another desk in the very corner of the floor, under the guise that I had been moved while I was away. My revenge will be swift and terrible, although I guess I'm glad I didn't get the dreaded styrofoam cube treatment. 
Anyway, they tried to make me feel better by showing me this: slugger David "Big Papi" Ortiz from the Boston Red Sox is selling his Mercedes on eBay Motors. The car is exceptionally cool in its own right, but there's an added bonus: Ortiz will personally deliver the car and title to you at legendary Fenway Park! It's a pretty neat one-two to be able to meet one of the best players in baseball, and then to drive away with his car (legally). Just don't ask him why he's wearing a Dallas Mavericks jersey in the picture instead of a Boston Celtics one.
Having just traded for Ortiz on my fantasy team my teammates knew I'm a big fan of his at the moment, so it was their rendition of a peace offering. Now if only they'll just give me a loan as well. (And if one of our readers ends up winning the car, PLEASE send me a picture so I can live vicariously through you.)
