Why ARod Won't Catch Bonds

12
Vote

by Fakegeorge

From the desk of Fake George Steinbrenner:

The big news yesterday of course was that ARod hit his 500th home run and that guy on steroids hit #755. Everybody's talking about how Mr. Steroids won't hold the record for long because ARod "is the youngest to get to 500."

You know what I say? Big deal. It doesn't matter.

ARod will never get to 755. Why? Two words: Pretty boy.

If you knew ARod like I know ARod you'd agree. All he cares about is what he looks like and whether the chicks will notice him. He spends more time grooming his hair than lifting weights.

Did you know he was ready to quit baseball a couple of years ago? He wasn't happy with the hat-hair his batting helmet was giving him. We had to pull a couple of scientists off their quest to cure cancer so they could help us design a more hair-friendly batting helmet. Have you noticed how when ARod takes his off now his hair is still perfect? That's what $2 million of accelerated research and development gets you these days.

Nah, this kid spends way too much time in front of the mirror to bother with any baseball records. And since the steroid scandal means that chicks don't dig the long ball like they used to, we'll all have to get used to Mr. Steroids owning the record for a long, long time, I'm afraid.

Alex Rodriguez will most likely break the record. If Arod decided to play until he was Barry Bonds age, he would need to average 30 homeruns a year to break it, EASILY. Now, if he averages about 40 over the next 7 years, he will have the record as well. The other thing to consider: How much longer will Mr. Steroids cheat...er, I mean play the game? If he adds about 20-25 homeruns for say another 2 years (most likely as a DH in the AL), it will make it a little tougher for Arod to keep pace and break it. All in all, if Arod plays until he reachers Bonds' retirement age, he will hold the homerun record, without a doubt.

If he signs with the Phillies, he would break Bonds record in three seasons! :)

I'd prefer not to risk having another overpaid prettyboy... He'll probably start batting .200 and hitting half as many home runs

Imagine an Utley-AROD-Howard middle of the lineup. Throw in awesome speed with Victorino and Bourne (who replaces Rowand in center).

Come on, Bourne as leadoff, Victorino batting second, followed by Utley-ARod-Howard, Rollins batting 6th, Pat the Bat in the 7th slot, and the catcher in 8.

That would set historic offensive records!

I guess if the spirit of posting under the name "fakegeorge" is to posit irrational opinions like the real George, you have succeeded.

Kudos DR19 on the math. Seems like Rodriguez is figuring on it too, or he wouldn't care so much about the hat.--cregg

Maybe he needs to put on some lipstick so it doesn't looks like he just made out with a Smurf.

Of course A-Rod might have a mental breakdown and lose his ability to hit anything throw at him...

Fake George, is that true about the special batting helmet or are you just pulling our legs? If true, it would be very amusing, but so strange.
