Iranian Baseball Team Bans “Girly” Players

Sorry A-Rod, Sorry Jeter, Sorry Nomar, Sorry Posada, your hopes of being on any of the Iranian teams are now shot, completely shot.  Turns out they completely banned players with an “effeminate look” from participating on their teams.  Wow.

Thanks to Aaron who tipped me off on this hilarious post over at DeadSpin.   I honestly do not know what’s funnier, the fact that Iran really did ban “girly” players from playing, or the fact that really in truly, A-Rod, Jeter, Nomar, Posada(yes, Posada), and a whole slew of other Major League Baseball players would really be banned.  Funny how so many of the girly players are on the Yankees.  Coincidence?  Nah, Steinbrenner just likes them girly.

Wow, did I really just say “Steinbrenner just likes them girly” ???  Yes, and I just said it again.

  1. [...] Players that probably wouldn’t make the aforementioned Iranian Baseball team rejoice.  Your time to swing the bat you wish you always could is at hand, and you can really feel comfortable in your own skin Sunday.  Just wait, someone will capture a picture of A-Rod with the biggest grin of his entire life.  I guess the pink bat would have gone perfect with his girly “slap the ball out of the first baseman’s mitt” in the playoffs two years ago…shame he didn’t have it then.   SportTech has a good take on just how all this went down, and my buddy Aaron hit the nail on the head when he said it will be, for lack of a better word, bizarre, to have Barry Bonds break Babe Ruth’s record while swinging a pink bat.
