I suppose it was only a matter of time before baseball finally went gay. What with all the talk of sticks and wood, along with the fact that the game is basically about catching balls. The Roc-A-Fella symbol is about to become some ubiquitous greeting in the sports world as well. Pictured above is a lip-glossed ALEX RODRIGUEZ doing the Roc hand sign as he purses his lips for kissing DEREK JETER no doubt (yes WEEZY EFFS BABY).
Now that the steroid scandal has subsided I imagine that baseball team owners will need to concoct another tempest in a teacup to keep the fans interested in their product during a dreadfully long season. Another drug scandal might not sit well with lawmakers in the Beltway and subject baseball to further scrutiny and inquiry, but a gay scandal could be titillating and help with the ratings for that elusive well heeled demographic – GLBT.
There’s a report floating around somewhere about how much money GLBT’s make as a demographic community when compared to their hetero breeder counterparts. The ghey player is sure to get some burn on the ELLEN DiGENERES Show as well as JAY LENO’s ‘Tonight Show’. This year marks the sixtieth anniversary of JACKIE ROBINSON re-integrating America’s pastime. Maybe this will be the year that a homo JACKIE ROBINSON comes out of the dugout, er, closet. JACKIE ROBINSON is one of my personal heroes but I can admit that the name JACKIE is very much GLBT.
Anyhoo, pitchers and catchers report this week. Let’s Go Mets.
