Part 2: Can You Really Translate Yu Darvish?

On Twitter, there are several accounts that pop up when you search for Yu Darvish.  Can we trust these hacks?

For the record, Yu Darvish's Twitter account is @FaridYu. In case you don't know, Yu's father is from Iran and the name Farid means "unique" in Arabic.

In addition to the real Yu Darvish, there is a long list of other accounts that claim to translate Yu's Twitter post into something us dopey English readers can comprehend.

I mentioned in a previous post that a lot can be lost in translation between Japanese and English.  So these Tweeters are up to something good -- so Texas Rangers fans, give 'em a chance.

Also, be prepared for a few good laughs from the strange Tweet translation results ... (Like the kind I have at my "Yu Funny" Tumblr account.)
