The best part of watching Dirk Nowitzki throw out the first pitch at a Texas Rangers (via this video, courtesy of <a href="http://lastangryfan.com/2011/06/dirk-nowitzki-and-his-gangliness-threw-out-the-first-pitch-at-rangers-mets-game/">The Last Angry Fan</a>) game isn't his massive jorts that could house a family of five or his general gangliness, but the idea that Nowitzki cannot comprehend balls that travel in a straight line.
