Baseball players Andy Rodriguez and Andy Pettitte have a close friendship that’s prompted several media outlets and frat boys everywhere to label it a “bromance.” Because dudes touching is totally gay. Let’s have a closer look at PettitteRod:

After the Mitchell Report was released and Andy Pettitte claimed that he and Roger Clemens both used performance-enhancing drugs (a claim Clemens very publicly denies), the media made much over the former “bromance” between the two. Since they were both from Texas and frequently trained together, it was easy to assume that they had a close mentor-protégé relationship. It added a dramatic detail to the steroid mess. Since that’s clearly been shot in the ass (HA!) [Ed. note: No.], it looks like the media is ready to assign Pettitte another bromantic entanglement.

Maybe they’ll get a room at the brotel and order some wicked good bro d’oeuvres from room service while watching Brobocop. And it’ll be the sweetest thing to have happened to mankind since Brometheus discovered fire.
