"... he’s not mad at you. He’s got hot stuff on his nuts."

Former San Francisco Giants third base coach Tim Flannery on pitcher Jake Peavy:

Analyzing one of Peavy’s starts, the former coach divulged that the fiery hurler had learned a lot from the legendary Roger Clemens. No, this didn’t have to do with PEDs. It had to do with Icy Hot, the muscle-burning balm used by many athletes to loosen things up.

"Clemens taught Peavy that, when your arm is hurting, you put the hot stuff on the places that you don’t want the hot stuff. It takes your mind off the other pain," Flannery divulged, referring to Peavy’s nether regions. "That’s what I told our guys when (Peavy) pitched against us."

"I’d tell the guys: 'He’s going to be out there yelling and screaming, but he’s not mad at you. He’s got hot stuff on his nuts.'"

This could explain it. Or maybe he was just a jerk.
