Mel Gibson -- Hits from the Pong

With a giant smile on his face -- and stains on his shirt -- Mel Gibson took over a ping pong table at a bar in NYC this weekend and played a little table tennis with his pal Josh Brolin.

Josh Brolin and Mel Gibson
While most of the spectators surrounding the bar room athletes were pounding a drink of some sort, Gibson only had his hands on his paddle.

1. How is sobriety going Mel? Doesn't look like too well. Your eyes look more wasted than LiLo's.

2. Didn't Chris Rock say you never want to be the old guy hanging out at the bar with a bunch of 20 somethings? Mel, you're that guy.

4. People who are no longer drinking should not be visiting bars, regardless of the fact that they aren't drinking. Chuckio is totally right - Mel is the old guy with a drinking problem who probably buys rounds for the youngsters so he'll feel accepted. Very sad.

8. Ladies and gentleman... the biggest religious hypocrite on the planet... Mel Gibson.

Mel, you fleeced all those Catholics with your movie, "The Passion Of The Christ" and now you're laughing all the way to the... um... bar?... ping pong table??

As your body grows flabby from booze... who's the Sugar Tits now?

9. If a friend you be, we PLAY a ping pong!!
Of you I'll be a Friend, but if a BUNDLE OF STICKS!!!
Under a bridge in the park put your bundle of sticks, so I'll take (THIS WAY, A FRIEND KNOW YOU BE!!!)
I'll put bundle of sticks with my pieces of metal and my plastic pieces in a bucket (LOOK MY MY BUCKET!!)
I get in my bucket and look out-of. I look through a hole for tiny men who run around (THEY STING AND STAB ME!!!!)
Yeah, but not on my cardboard!!!
IT'S A CHEETAH!!!

12. Have you guys ever done anything athletic besides running after Britney? The stains on Mel's shirt could be sweat, but you couldn't help your snarky selves, could you? Really, you guys at TMZ need to quit your whiney comments.

13.
When if Mel Gibson plays BE a ping pong, it's ping, it's a pong, IT'S
A PING PONG!!!
THAT'S NO STIGATA!!
Ping pong is a sport, is some paddles, is a ball (A BALL!!!)
When a friend is your Mel Gibson he'll play you a ping pong, but
maybe. YOU BETTER BE A FRIEND; BE NICE, OR HE WON'T PLAY YOU A PING
PONG AT A BAR!!!
I'm not played a ping pong until I'm said I sorry, BUT I DIDN'T DO
ANYTHING!!!
THAT'S CHEETAH!!
NO!! THAT'S A CHEETAH CHIBATA!!
UHGAH!!

15. I bet Oksana will be jumping on his case, I bet she comes unglued, I hope so; Mr. "solid and faithful partner" is going to go overboard with his drinking and be going home with a 20+ blonde. Daddy would rather be in a BAR than be home with his "new family"?????
