Female Yankee Bleacher Mayhem [video]

The Yankees haven’t bought an All-Star player since July when Lance Berkman came to the Bronx, and the bleacher crowd is getting restless. I’m not sure what caused this little fight, but it’s safe to assume these broads weren’t fighting over differences in opinion over the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Found this little gem over at Ted Williams Head.

A Great Day For A-ROD

Michalis Hatzigiannis    A.L. East, MLB, NY Yankees     600th Home Run, Alex Rodiguez, Prop 8

The Yankees found themselves playing against a 3 game losing streak, and A-Rod hitless in his last 17 at-bats–3 years ago to the day that Alex Rodriguez hit his 500th home run.  On a day where the sun left the stadium stifling and humid, it seemed as though a breeze picked up for one moment… A moment that would ultimately change Rodriguez’s life forever…  A moment that saw San Fransico judge Vaughn Walker declare that the ballot initiative outlawing gay marriage violates due process, and is therefore unconstitutional according to the 14th amendment.  This ruling should go before the suprieme court, who will further rule on a state’s right to ban same-sex marriages.  With in no time California’s acceptance of gays could be spread to NY and all over America.

Today A-Rod and many others celebrated a day that could be a true stepping stone towards equality.

RIP George

So  maybe he was a villain.  Maybe he ruined baseball a little bit.  Maybe he wasn’t very nice to his employees.  Maybe he didn’t go to heaven. Maybe he is fighting with the devil for the rights to A-Rod’s soul as we speak.  People still probably shouldn’t be taking this time to trample his grave.  That said, I don’t think we need to honor him with three hour specials all day on ESPN either.

He was an entertaining owner, and he definitely changed baseball, possibly forever.

See everything that needed to be said in one sentence.

Lady Guy Guy Crashes Yankee Club House

Michalis Hatzigiannis    MLB, NY Mets, NY Yankees    

Lady Guy Guy attended the subway series between the Yanks and Mets, attending games at both stadiums.  At Yankee stadium she decided to sport an open jersey with a bikini under it, then got plastered and stumbled around the clubhouse, where she slurred and spit on the players she met, and I am sure unsuccessfully threw herself at them.

There is no way this person likes baseball, so my prognosis is that her inner high-school loser came out.   I am sure she spent her adolescent years alone, cutting herself in her room, dreaming of being popular and hooking up with the football team.  Now that she’s a somebody I am sure she was trying to make up for it, to no avail.

It just proves that having money and fame won’t make you happy….

Unless you are also good looking.

Are You From Minnesota and Wearing A Yankees Hat?

Good!

Because your beloved 26 year old, three time batting champ, Joe Mauer is going to be.  It has been reported that the Twins are offering him 20 mil a year, and he is holding out for  A-Rod money, somewhere in the range of 25.  He is absolutely worth it, just probably not to the Twins who would have to dedicate a fourth of their payroll to the catcher.

In every other sport, you had better bleed you team’s colors, but baseball, I say feel free to jump ship.  I grew up loving the Indians and Manny Ramirez, and have felt no shame for taking my loyalty to whatever team could pay him.   Go ahead, root for the Brewers.  Prince Fielder is gone-zo after this season, and Ryan Braun will follow when his contract is up, just like Mark Teixeira and the Rangers.  Enjoy Hanley Ramirez while you can, and then go buy a Red Sox hat once he gets traded back to them for prospects.

It isn’t bad for the teams, they can always be rebuilt, it sucks for the fans that have to sit through rebuilding periods, while two Cy Young award winning pitchers that came up through their system pitch against each other in the world series.   My advice, join a fantasy baseball league, build your own team, and root for your players and whatever teams they are on.

A-Rod’s Paperboy Interviewed by FBI

Cornelius Wellington III    MLB, NY Yankees     Arod and steroids, Paperboy, PEDs

While the FBI was sitting outside of A-Rod’s house yesterday looking for needles in his trash and scooping samples from his dog’s poop in the yard, they noticed that the neighborhood paperboy was throwing the Times a little further and with a lot more accuracy than usual.

Soon after the boy’s arrest, rumors were everywhere that A-Rod’s paperboy had been supplying the Yankee 3rd baseman with PEDs since grade school. Congressmen, that were originally elected during the Civil War, back the allegations.

A-Rod was unavailable for comment and is still reluctant to leave his penthouse since he found out Madonna was a man.
