A-Rod Wants to Stay in New York


A-Rod has indicated that he would like to retire a Yankee, if the fans will have them.

"It's a do or die situation," he said on WFAN-AM's "Mike and the Mad Dog" show. "Either New York is going to kick me out of New York this year, say 'I've had enough of this guy, get him the hell out of here,' and we have an option. Or New York is going to say, 'Hey, we won a world championship, you had a big year, you were a part of it and we want you back."

With that I give you my ode to our tepid third baseman:

Alex Rodriguez please do not cry
We all know that you’re a pretty good guy
It’s just when you act like sad little baby
It makes us think keeping you is only a maybe
The thing is Alex, when you under perform
It makes us think your are no better than the norm
And as long as we still pay you so much for your bat
You better make us proud that you wear our hat
So stop giving them reasons to send pictures of you with a purse
So stop making it obvious that your relationship with Jeter is terse
Throw out your tissues, and away with your issues
Help us get a ring, with your bat make some contact
Then at the end of the year we can discuss your new contract
But without a win this year you’ll become a vagrant
But such is the life of a lesser paid free agent
