ALCS Non-Preview: New York Yankees
 |
Even though I swore to myself in the immediate aftermath of Sunday’s trainwreck that I “didn’t care about the rest of the playoffs” and I “sure as hell wasn’t going to watch the games”… I was totally lying (it was just the bitterness talking). It’s baseball – and any baseball is good baseball, especially playoff baseball. |

So I’ve decided to put my idle hands to good use with a series of NLCS and ALCS non-previews. You can find thoughtful analysis anywhere- I’m just here to post whatever random shit about the teams that I feel like. Hey, if Leitch can write previews without actually previewing the team, then I sure as hell can write non-previews. |
My non-preview of the Yankees is going to consist of one thing, and one thing only… THIS:
Some ballplayers celebrate their ALCS-clinching victory with champagne, some with beer… but Alex Rodriguez celebrates by peeping through plastic sheets, SWF-style, at Derek Jeter. DUDE IS A CREEPER. Thanks to twitter user @gx5, we are able to crystalize – in one single frame – all of the creepiness of A-Rod. It’s truly a masterpiece. Or, at least it was, until @matt_T took it one step further:
And if the still version or the LOLcats version of PeepingRod was not enough, Dodgers blog Memories of Kevin Malone supplies us with an animated GIF of hilarity to round out the Trifecta Of Creepy:
DEREK! LOOK BEHIND YOU! HE’S COMING TO GET YOU!
Oh, Yankees – you have a special way of making my skin crawl like no other. Kudos on finding new and interesting ways to make people uncomfortable… you’re definitely World Champion Creepers.
Anyone know where I can get an A-Rod voodoo doll? LOL’ing at Leitch’s “non-preview” previews.
Funny how one week I’m praying for the Angels to collapse and the next I’m hoping they whip the Yanks’ asses…
Oh, man…that IS creepy. Thank you for reinforcing why it’s okay to hate the Yankees.
EW.
I’m so sorry, I had to do it. Old meme and NSFW ahead: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v318/MarchingTwinkie3/aRAHmasturbate.jpg
Great. I’m afraid to leave my house now.
For another take on A-Rod’s lack of postseason celebratory prowess, check out this article from the Onion: “Not Knowing How To Celebrate, A-Rod Breaks Champagne Bottle Over Teammates’ Heads”

Schmiegel, is that you?
sheesh, talk about a single white female attraction. Makes me sick to know they’ll be world champs in 2 weeks.
@adam: Oh, silly. Manny will once again feast on MFY pitching…NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM
@Bloggy: I hope Manny doesn’t get to the WS. I can’t watch a MFY & MFD series ;-)
