"The Los Angeles Dodgers and their families have joined the somewhat recent social media trend of asking people if they wish they were more athletic and capturing their reaction on video. The trend often does not discriminate, as any person could be the target. But current and former professional athletes make for the best subjects because they are objectively more athletic than most people. This type of video has made the rounds throughout the sports world, from the Seattle Seahawks in the NFL, to Olympian Simone Biles, and Hall of Fame pitcher Randy Johnson, just to name a few."
"Freeman is the first victim and responds to the question with a perplexed, "Excuse me?" before admitting that he wish he ran faster. When asked if he wished he was naturally athletic like football players, Muncy rebutted that he is more athletic than most of them. But Muncy also wishes he was slightly more athletic generally. Edman offered the most confused response, at one point responding to his wife by asking if the question was about playing for the Oakland Athletics."
"In the spirit of the Dodgers having fun on the internet, there is something to look forward to at the start of Spring Training next year besides that fact that baseball is back. Shohei Ohtani first pranked manager Dave Roberts in 2024 by gifting him a Porsche to commemorate surpassing him to become the Dodgers' all-time home run leader among Japanese-born players on May 4, 2024. The caveat was that it was a toy car."
Los Angeles Dodgers players and their families joined a social media trend asking people if they wished they were more athletic and captured their reactions on video. The trend often targets anyone but frequently features current and former professional athletes because they are objectively more athletic than most people. Significant others of Freddie Freeman, Max Muncy, Tommy Edman, Will Smith and others participated in the videos. Freddie Freeman admitted he wished he ran faster. Max Muncy said he is more athletic than most football players but still wanted slight improvement. Tommy Edman appeared confused, and Will Smith answered "sure" while asking why he was being filmed. Shohei Ohtani previously pranked manager Dave Roberts with a toy Porsche after a home run milestone.
