FH likes A-rod and always wonders why I hate him so much. We were at the game where he hit HR #500, and that was the only time I cheered for him - a great achievement steroid free deserves an ovation. When we go to games, I always boo him. He went to a suck a$$ team for the $$, not the potential of the team, and for that, I will never have respect for him. Only when he realized Texas was truly bad did he want to come to the yanks. Yeah, I hate A-rod, had to vent. Glad to know I'm not the only one!

lets be honest now, the man is human and who wouldn't take that money. i mean its easy for us to talk when its not a possibility but to throw that money in someones face its hard to turn down.

I think if I were a baseball player, and it was a decision between 20mm or 30mm a year, and I know w/ the 20mm a year team I'd have a WS ring, but w/ the 30mm a year team we'd have a barely 500 team, I'd go for the 20mm and the ring. That's what you play baseball for, the WS ring. He could easily be the WS MVP, win all kinds of awards, and achieve further records. He has enough $$, him and his family will never starve. An extra 10mm is more than I'll ever see, but he already has it and doesn't need it. What he doesn't have is a WS ring, and unless he wins it this year, he may never have it if he chooses to leave.

well thats why he is with the yankees now

Re: YES!!! YANKS in the playoffs!!!!!!!!! LGY!!!!!!!!!!

FH is a Mets fan, I'm a Yankees fan, and we have a lot of fun with it. I root for the Mets as long as it's not against the Yankees, and he does the same. My bro is a Mets fan too. Makes things fun. I can't belive how badly the Mets have been playing these past couple of weeks. They do choke, it's almost like they can't handle success. Whereas the Yankees thrive at the end of the season cause they can't stop in Sept, they must continue til Oct!!

That is true, I'm not by any means saying he's a bad player, thats why I said he defiantly will get MVP and actually deserves it. And if I could have his money then hell yeah I'd take it lol!

However, I think players are getting more and more greedy every year, and they have taken this game for granted, and its all about the money for them now, its not about the love of the game, and thats so sad.

---

its true although i truly believe for many it is about the game...but when you go pro, unfortunately JUST the love of the game isnt the only factor, so much come into play and its a whole other ballpark now. Its the politics of it, the WS ring, about records and yes money too.

WooHoo!!!!!!

I HATE A-rod, but he so is MVP this year.

---

Ok I LOOVE that you said this! I thought I was the only one that feels this way about A-rod, but I'll admit he defiantly will be MVP

---

Fh sweats A-rod

---

FH does too, this is the one thing we fight about constantly lol

---

hahaha yeah at first i used to always fight with him about this, but a-rod is growing on me lol.

---

nooo denise come back to the light! he is evil

---

honestly you know what did it for me, which is stupid but when he was in slump and how everyone treated him. Personally i think its wrong when people boo good players for any little thing, its like you gotta stick with them through the good and bad. That made me have some sympathy and as much as i wasnt a fan of him the truth is that he is an amazing player and one of the best around

---

---

THANK YOU someone who agrees, and not just a-rod but its done alot, its like ok we only love our team if you do great otherwise we will go against you

---

I liked A-rod til he came to the yankees. It's his principals I question, not his ability as a player. He came here only because the Yanks could afford him and he wanted a ring. If the Yanks didn't have the bankroll they do, he'd be someplace else. That's why I don't like him. As a player, he's great, and no one could ever say otherwise.

---

i also kinda think that now he was thinking hmmm i have all these records, i have the name but what is missing is the ring. Plus even the fact to be part of the yankees organization

Re: YES!!! YANKS in the playoffs!!!!!!!!! LGY!!!!!!!!!!

FH is STILL talking about this and its 4:15AM!!!! You can say he's a little bit of a Yankess fan! hehe
