There Is Literally Nothing Like Yankee Fans Hating Arod
Its nothing new. I’m not pretending this is the first time its ever happened. But today has been particularly out of control. Talk radio, the newspapers, the blogosphere. Just absolutely out of control. Yankee fans who have done nothing but annihilate Nick Swisher and Mark Teixeireiixieria are all the sudden their biggest supporters so they can drop Arod down in the order. Now Tex and Swisher are viable solutions in the 3 hole somehow after like 3 years of saying they should be left of the playoff roster. Talking about working Eric Chavez into the lineup and shit. Its straight bizarro world stuff.
At this stage in the game he’s over the hill and past his prime. Everyone knows that. So what is it with the ridiculous expectations? I understand he’s not currently performing but this is some deep rooted hatred still. No other 36 year old is expected to perform the same way he did when he was in his prime. So why do Yankee fans feel that way? And don’t say the money. Don’t tell me the $30 million a year matters. Because thats been the opposite of every Yankee fan mantra forever. The money doesn’t matter when things work ok, so the money shouldn’t matter when it fails too. Yankees fans have poo poo’d Tex’s $25 million all year because “its not their money.”
So is it still Jeter? Is it the fact that Arod will forever and always be linked to Jeter and Jeter continues to thrive at age 38? Thats a legitimate question, I’m not trying to rile people up. Is that really what it is for Yankees fans? Is it that you really think Swisher or Tex or someone else is a viable solution in the 3 hole? Probably the only 2 guys who have a worse playoff track record than Arod?
Or is it just pure unadulterated irrational hatred? Thats fine by me too. There have been plenty of guys on my team I hate for no good reason. I personally think the main reason that the entire world hates Alex Rodriguez is that he’s an overpaid douchebag. But as a Yankees fan, thats your entire franchise – overpaid dicks. He’s the overpaid dick who won you a ring. So, what can it be?
I hate A-rod because he has frosted-tipped pubes and smells like the #6 from T-bell. Bring back Irabu!!!
I’m not one to really dish out the hate on A-rod but after watching the K tracker last night and seeing him taking huge cuts at balls in the strike zone and missing, and then chasing off speed pitches away that were soft as baby shit is not excusable for someone who was as dominant as A-rod once was. Guy is just over the hill
it’s a lot of things…it’s the fact that he swings and misses BADLY at junk hanging in the zone, pitches that Ibanez crushes, that he always seems to come up in the big spots and he ALWAYS fails…that after he does something like strike out swinging at ball 4 to end the game it looks like he doesn’t give a shit and just calmly walks back to the dugout after what he probably thinks is a fine days work…I don’t care about how much he makes…just because you pay a guy a lot doesn’t mean he’ll produce…but Arod just doesn’t look like he cares, which wouldn’t be a problem (Cano looks like that too) if he got a fucking big hit one time…he was 1 RBI behind Stan Musial for about a month, then tied it with a fucking sac fly…I don’t think he’s had another RBI in a game besides that sac fly since the all-star break (only a slight exaggeration) bottom line is he’s a hole in the lineup…doesn’t get big hits, doesn’t advance runners, kills rallies, and apparently doesn’t fucking care…I would rather see Chavez hitting 3rd, at least he tries
^^clearly doesn’t appreciate A-rod’s past accomplishments.
Fuck, throw the jew down the well’s comment was just deleted and now I look fucking stupid.
^^ englewood it’s a “what have you done for me lately” league my friend…how does Arod’s 2003 MVP help the Yankees right now?
ha ok englewood…my comment now doesn’t apply to you…KFC you have started a dangerous precedent deleting comments…this entire comment section is now in chaos
At first I thought his was strasser but soon enough the bitter mets fan mantra took over and I couldn’t read anymore. There’s a reason you hired a Yankees writer. Let’s just start a Barstool LA and have it run by a Clippers fan. Makes sense right? KFC is the best writer on Barstool but he knows nothing about how Yankees fans think.
I am sure KFC would not censor free speach. It had to come from that filthy scum Jew boss. Remember that when u need him friend of Jew

why in the fuck won’t Girardi use Arod as a DH and play Chavez at 3rd? Chavez has twice the power #’s with half the at bats as Arod.
How absolutely bonkers is it that Mark Teixeira has become an afterthought in this lineup and their #8 hitter last night had 43 HRs
I hate you KFC cause your and overpaid douchebag, and your a met’s blogging about the Yankees. Go hitup the golf coure with dicky and wright, and let the yankees win championships.
Sssssssssssssssssszzzzzzzzzz. Calm as the gas enter the room a feeling of relief washes over you …….
Jackofspades, A-Rod is over the hill but what kills him is injuries, at this age at least. He started the previous season great, and got hurt. Was decent early this year and got hurt again. He can hit 25-30 HRs still, but if he has any physical damage to his body, he goes to the tank. Been the same way for a while now. Hate on the guy all you want, but he’s the only reason the Yankees have one title in recent memory. And even the years when he had a shitty postseason (like pretty much every Yankee did), he was the reason they made the postseason. Sure, he sucks at this moment, but I’d rather have a blind A-Rod at the plate than Teixeira, who is still looking for his first big hit as a Yankee.
we dont win if arod doesnt hit. its as simple as that.
NYC is full of Jews seems like the perfect place to start
Thought of another reason and this one is more subconcious and totally unfair to arod but his first year here was 2004 the year of the collapse to the red sox so arod coming here has kind of always been associated with choking and many will never see him outside of that perception and it goes all the way back to the 2004 alcs
And like many have pointed out if he doesn’t hit we don’t win a championship and it’s frustrating to have so much riding on a guy who is as talented as he is and he constantly doesn’t come through
Jack, Please give a list of Yankees who have “come through” more during A-rod’s Yankee stay? That list has zero names on it. ZERO. Shitty postseasons? Yes. But so did everyone else. Nobody hit a god damn thing the year they won, outside of Matsui going nuts in the last game and Melky having some big hits. When it comes to A-Rod, Yankee fans forget every single big hit and remember every struggle. Also, when you try to associate 2004 with Alex, he was hitting over .400 in that series before they forgot how to pitch, and the last time I checked it wasn’t him blowing saves on the mound.
So he is half Jew and half nigga. It’s a lose lose

Maybe if he stopped thinking the pine tar was lip stick…
Can somebody plaese kill throw the jew down the well?
see that girls tits?
Yankees will be fine everybody needs to calm the fuck down
langdon…how many of those guys have the natural ability that arod possesses?? If Swisher sucks it’s because he’s Swisher and he’s going to suck more times than not…Arod has no excuse because he’s the best player on the field most nights and he plays like he just got called up from Scranton
Yankee fans as a collective whole are just fucking morons with no sense of baseball. They also live under this grand mass delusion that every player on the roster is a savior.
