hideki_porn-1.jpgYesterday we reported on Yankees outfielder Hideki Matsui’s recent nuptials and the odd press conference he held, during which he displayed a pencil sketch of his new bride in efforts to protect her identity, and showcase his burgeoning artistic talent.

Today, the local papers have caught up, though what interests me most isn’t their coverage of the press conference, but rather this line buried in an article in the Daily News:

Matsui, also known back home for his large collection of porn films, said he and his wife have been planning their wedding for a year.

Needless to say, this called for some further digging. Evidently in ‘03 Matsui was featured in the Asian edition of Time Magazine. An excerpt:

Indeed, his only eccentricity, if it can be called that, is his extensive private library of adult videos. His refreshing ability to laugh self-deprecatingly about his porno collection, reporters say, is one reason why fans and even nonfans have taken to him so much.

So Hideki Matsui is the Porn King of Japan. Who knew?

    Coming from a guy named Chip, that’s a really funny comment. Before you make a comment like that you should have the name of a famous detective, not one half of a men’s cabaret, Chip.

    • Comment on Rangers Trade For Jokinen by Jeff Zachowski
      You're obviously a student of the GOP school of debate, Rob. Why say anything intelligent when you can just misrepresent what the other side is saying and/or falsify what they've already said? First off, I am stating that an inability to judge a move in a vacuum would impair your credibility. It's up to you to decide whether or not that descri […]
    • Comment on Rangers Trade For Jokinen by Rob A from BBD
      You're questioning my credibility to bash moves? I question your ability to judge any moves at all. 2 days after the Rangers made the very obvious disaster of signing Wade Redden to a crippling contract you emailed me and said that the Rangers were making your dreams come true. In another email you told me that you were never more excited about the Rang […]

      Come on, Rob. You wear your Sather Hatred like a chip on your shoulder. You're not the only one around here who hates the guy. But in order to have credibility when you bash moves, you have to be fair on the good ones. Did you ever think that he'd be able to unload the remaining FIVE years on Gomez's pact while not taking back salary beyond th […]

      This is only a good deal because it gets rid of Kotalik. I doubt Jokinen is going to make a difference. I can't congratulate Sather for making up for his own mistake when the biggest mistake, Redden, is still out there for the next five, ?, years. […]
    • Comment on This Week in Rangers Hockey (Jean Ratelle Edition) by Ben
      Jean Ratelle was not only a gentleman on the ice but off it as well. Living in Long Beach, I grew up with the Rangers as my neighbors and Jean was always happy to give the local kids sticks and pucks so we could play in the street. His time with the Rangers was the golden age of hockey. I saw him fight only once and even that he did like a gentleman. No one […]
