Why Man Crush Baseball?

It’s not a gay thing. It’s a respect thing. It’s an “I see what you’re doing and I like it” thing. It’s a man crush. We have a lot of them. We shake our head side-to-side when Jack White sings. We don’t look away when Jason exposes his Segel in “Forgetting Sarah Marshall.” So what if we get goosebumps every time Andy Samburg looks straight into the camera on SNL?

What is Man Crush Baseball?

Ringo Starr

It’s a fantasy league in the most literal definition of the word fantasy.

We took the concept of a Man Crush, combined it with fantasy sports and developed:

an active league roster of over 100 of the best Man Crushes we could think of in entertainment and the NBA, MLB and NFL.

We’ll get the ten most suitable owners together for an online draft until we fill up our rostersto build a complete team like:

Matt and Zack’s dream teams.

Scoring will be based on head-to-head match-ups of every pitcher and batter. We’ll have our readers vote on who would win each match-up and reveal the winners in a fantasy story describing the match-up:

Scorsese vs. Fitzgerald. Readers vote for Scorsese, so we write up the at-bat:

Scorsese throws a “Raging Bull” of a rising heater, blowing it by Fitzgerald, who takes a monster cut as his dreads slap him in the face. 0-1. On the second pitch Scorsese misses high and overblown with “The Aviator,” 1-1. He intimidates Fitz with chin music on the third pitch, with “Taxi Driver.” Fitz is shaking. Scorsese hasn’t let him take his bat off his shoulder. 2-1. Fitz unloads on “Bringing out the Dead,” just murders it, but it hooks foul. Dead ball. 2-2. Fitz bounces in the batters box, Scorsese wipes his glasses on his shirt. Scorsese winds up and spins a side-armed curve ball. Fitzgerald lunges early and misses horribly. “The Departed.”
