Who needs a World Series ring when you can win a place on the Sporting News All-Star team? Not Jeter or A-Rod! I'm sure they're happy just to have received any honor at all, right? No offense to the TSN. I'm sure all the honored players appreciate the shout-out and I image A-Rod and Jeet have both cleared off a space in their trophy rooms (both of which are larger than my home, I have no doubt) for their 12th and 9th respective TSN prizes. Do they get trophies? I might have made that up. That said, it's time to refocus our attention on the HUGE game tonight, essentially a make or break contest for the Rays. If they lose, they COULD make up comeback, of course - no one that's watched them this year could put that past them - but who wants to have to rely on a game 4 win at the Phillies own stomping grounds? Judging by their year-long tradition of coming from behind, I'm anticipating a home run derby-esque game with Longoria putting the team up 3-1 in the 1st. And before I sign off for the day, let's all have a good chuckle over A-Rod's latest endorsement deal with Guitar Hero (partially funded by The Boxer Brief Association of America): Labels: a-rod support, accolades, devilish rays, haha...ha., jeter jeter pumpkin eater, post-season |
That may possibly be the dumbest ad for a video game I've ever seen in my life- and being a gamer since I was 4, I've seen a lot of dumb game advertisements. Amazingly it makes me want hate that stupid Guitar Hero series more than I already do.
It's hilarious that A-Rod is in it though, making a complete fool of himself as usual. I love how the team is paying this guy $30 mil a year and throughout 2008 he's made more headlines by making an ass of himself off the field than he did winning games for the Yankees.
