Now that David Ross has officially retired from the game of baseball, he has taken on the daunting task of dancing with a complete smoke show, Lindsay Arnold, on ABC’s popular TV show, “Dancing With The Stars.”
Surprisingly, Ross actually has a little bit of rhythm. He opened the show dancing to “Go Cubs Go” which had every Cubs fan smiling from ear to ear at the fact they got to see their 39-year-old backup catcher floating around the dance floor like a dancing sprite.

Ross followed up his “Go Cubs Go” performance with a sick cha-cha to the 80’s classic, “Bust A Move.”
I can’t believe I just used the phrase “sick cha-cha.”
However, his latest performance has created quite the buzz on Twitter, specifically from his former teammate Anthony Rizzo. Ross performed some weird, sexual lap dance “Magic Mike” type of thing for his partner Lindsay Arnold which was highlighted by him ripping his shirt off to expose a very fake six-pack.
The weirdness of watching David Ross attempting to be seductive was too much for Rizzo to bear. Rizzo ripped off a series of tweets expressing the horror of watching the grizzled former catcher attempting to give a lapper.
Speechless… and a bit horrified. @DancingABC @D_Ross3

Watching his former teammate try to be seductive was apparently a vision that had the potential to give Rizzo nightmares. Ross put on his trolling shoes and took the opportunity to troll the shit out of Rizzo and his nightmare tweets.
Two nights after Rizzo tweeted that watching Ross dance would give him nightmares, Ross delivered this beautiful tweet.

I’m glad to see that these two are still friends even though Ross has traded his baseball spikes for dancing shoes.
