Disorienting cropping, static straight-ahead camera angles, noticeable lack of Derek Jeter. Who is this person? Evan Longoria. What does his hair look like? Indiscernible. After all, what else could anyone possibly want to know about Evan Longoria? Nothing!
My quality of life directly correlates to the quality of the Yahoo! Sports MLB Photo Gallery. I may never know what anyone looks like again. What will I put on this blog? Acrostic poems about my favorite athletes, I guess. Here's my first two:
1.
Day after day,
Even when I am
Reasonably happy, I spend at least one minute thinking about how in-
Evitably, Derek Jeter is getting older. It
Keeps happening. There's no reason to take it personally. It's
Just something that is happening.
Every day,
The past gets larger and larger, like a floating yak that can't stop
Eating. Someday this insatiable ghost yak, or whatever it is, will consume you.
Realistically, thankfully, I doubt that Derek Jeter has considered his spirit animal of death.
2.
Please be good at football this year.
Eli has already won two Superbowls.
You deserve another one,
Two, three, four
Or five...just kidding. You're probably too old for four.
Not that I know anything about the lifespans of professional athletes.

I also don't know why you're in that boring car commercial.

Someone please fix the Yahoo! Sports MLB Photo Gallery. Writing poetry is stupid and hard.
