The guy has always been very quiet and reserved.

And by no means was I badgering him. I said probably 10 words total to him. So explain to me how I wasn't letting him be himself? If "himself" is not looking up to acknowledge fans and "himself" has made millions of dollars to play baseball then "himself," regardless of how shy he is, is a douche for not taking 10 seconds of his precious time to look up to a baseball fan and possibly shaking his hand. Or is it that I have to do carpentry for him and know him for 15 years before I say hi to the guy?

I have known him for about 15 years since I did some carpentry work in his home. Garrett is just a shy individual who prefers to be un-noticed. I have seen him with team mates and friends and he is still the quite one, so you shouldn't be putting a label on this person. Just let him be himself.

Guy makes millions and here he is shopping at a store that the guy on the corner in a cardboard apron is handing out discount flyers for. But no, now I have to roast this man because he didn’t find the need to look up and acknowledge a “fan” in a visiting city. I swear this guy could’ve been in the middle of Bryant Park, fully decked out in his old Angels uniform, taking soft toss from Vlad, with Chipper Jones, Bobby Cox, and circa 1993 Greg Maddux watching and I bet NO ONE would’ve recognized this dude. I did a double-take at first because I thought he was Denzel Washington or even Brian McKnight (that’s not a compliment you douche), and then I had to think for a good 5 min. before I even remembered the name Garret Anderson. Word of advice, Garret “Just For Men” Anderson, remain humble, homie. You’ve had a fine career, but you ain’t Tim LIncecum. HOW DARE YOU SIR?
