Prince Fielder forced to retire.. What does that have to do with Prince? Saw this today and had to post due to the irony!!... Prince Fielder (a U.S. Baseball player) was forced to retire due to injury. What does this have to do with our beloved Prince?? He retired with exactly 319 homeruns!!! Get it... 319!! Just thought that was a cool coincidence!!! Made me smile... Always thought it was cool his name was Prince too...just thought I would share |

Prince Fielder is a vegetarian too. I always wondered if he was named after Prince. He was born in 1984 when Prince Nelson was on fire. |

It's a hot ass track on The Gold Experience.
It was also referenced in Showgirls, a movie with two songs in it. It was the hospital room number at the end of the movie, too.

i also read years ago that he is a vegetarian ... he must be eating entire heads of lettuce overed with chocolate syrup, or maybe he's eating acres of sodded grass and digesting Oak trees and giant Sequoias... he's way too big to be subsisting on vegetation alone... |

Yeah, he's a big fellow. Too bad about his injury possibly ending his career. |

I'm pretty bummed about Prince's retirement. I had plans to go and meet him and take my picure with Prince. I couldn't watch the press conference, it was just sad. The Rangers players were crying, I couldn't take it. Beautiful, Loved and Blessed
Thank You Prince |

Vegetarians still get down on pasta, bread, cheese, sweets - they're not all skinny I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it |
