Jay Cutler butchers 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game'

Last edited Tue Jul 17, 2012, 02:39 PM - Edit history (1)

Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler has often been criticized by Chicago fans and media for his nonchalant demeanor, stone-faced expressions and overall lack of personality.

On Saturday, during the Cubs' game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Cutler had a chance to warm up to Chicago fans by throwing out the first pitch and singing during the seventh-inning stretch.

Cutler's pitch was on the money, but his singing was horrendous.

If only Simon Cowell were there to critique it.

Cutler gave those in attendance at Wrigley Field that awkward moment when you feel bad for the person embarrassing himself. So much for changing the personality viewpoint in the Windy City.

Cutler butchered Take Me Out to the Ball Game from the start. He kept a monotone voice throughout and poorly attempted to be enthusiastic.

Maybe next time he should bring fiance Kristin Cavallari out for a duet.

Isn't being a terrible singer part of the charm in that particular Cubs tradition?
