08:53 AM ET 06.23 | Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper has made the transition to Major League Baseball with ease this season. Now the 19-year-old phenom is stepping into a world where his quotes go viral, then end up on T-shirts. Harper told Comcast SportsNet Washington on Thursday night that sporting manufacturer Under Armour will soon start selling T-shirts bearing a quote he gave a Canadian reporter last week. After a game against the Blue Jays on June 12, the reporter had asked Harper whether he would take advantage of Ontario's drinking age restrictions, which allow 19-year-old's to consume alcohol. Harper, a Mormon who does not drink, replied, "That's a clown question, bro." The video of the incident quickly became a YouTube sensation and the quote was one of the highest trending topics on Twitter.

Really? That quote on a tee shirt is supposed to be a big seller? The quote came up because of another instance of the media not having a clue what questions to ask someone. Obviously if he doesn't drink he would care less about the Canadian drinking age law.

It was a great line but, as Leno noted on the Tonight SHow, Harry Reid is already on tape saying the phrase. It's dead.
