Shhh.. Right now, the "Bernardini and Zenyatta got married !!1!!11!" 'posting to Z as if she typed the messages to her fans herself' people are peacefully knitting little booties for Zenyatta's 2012 baby. I'm just trying to motivate them just enough to vote for the ESPYs, not turn into the Incredible Hulk.
