Maybe, if some people are "lucky," A-Rod will start getting DUI arrests, hitting women, fathering illegitimate children, taking illegal drugs, etc. so they'll have an actual reason not to like the guy and can quit digging so hard for reasons to not like him. Just because he has a big contract he's supposed to ignore any other money-making offers that come his way? I agree completely with goddam's comment above. Anyone would do the exact same thing if they had the opportunity. If all professional athletes went about their business, as well as their private lives, like A-Rod, we might be able to start calling athletes "role models" for young people again. That being said, if he all of a sudden does make some sort of mistake in his life, I'm not going to be one of the people who jumps up and starts bashing the guy. Only all of the "perfect" individuals will be submitting those posts.
It's funny that his favorite move is Wal Street, from where we get this quote.
I wonder if Dan Patrick will read A-rods journal on the air like he does with Barry Bond's on-line journal. That would be neat! lol
Heck, I've always like A-Rod, corporate whore or not. Love him or hate him, at least he's had the deceny to PLAY...unlike a certain other "superstar" we could name...
Maybe, if some people are "lucky," A-Rod will start getting DUI arrests, hitting women, fathering illegitimate children, taking illegal drugs, etc. so they'll have an actual reason not to like the guy I don't know... People still like Greg Maddux and he did all those things simultaneously while punching his mother.
Yeah, but cl, she deserved it! She hit a homer off of him.
Great player, seems like a nice guy. Slick website fits imho. I'll always remember him for slapping at the ball while running to first, but that has more to with being a redsox fan than anything else.
This is all fine and well, but how long do you think he will keep it up? Or better yet, have someone else do it for him?
Are you suggesting his 1337 HTML skillz will someday desert him?
He will move to a different website when they offer him more money.
tina, the site is produced by mlb, so he really doesn't have to do a whole lot regarding updates to the site. jeter's site is done the same way. i'm sure there are other players around the league with similar sites that are done through the league.
Are you suggesting his 1337 HTML skillz will someday desert him? I think manny has a better grip on flash design. This is all fine and well, but how long do you think he will keep it up? Or better yet, have someone else do it for him? They're just cookie cutter sites. I'm surprised arod just got one up.
Mr. Rodriguez, I am a huge fan and I was wondering who is your closest friend in baseball? [ no one on the Yankees ]
yawn
I can tell you that he is trying to charge $79.95 for his 1994 fleer update rookie card on his site. It only lists at $40.00 in the new Beckett Baseball Card Plus book.

I'm STILL trying to get someone here to tell me what Greg Maddux has really done. Or is it all part of a big inside joke I'm not in on?
Yes. There's a previous thread, but I'm not digging it up.
I know. I asked in that one as well. Ach, never mind...
Recently, Maddux has begun manufacturing a form of cocaine mixed with meth and ecstasy that is virtually undetectable by sniffer dogs, x-rays, or body cavity searches. From what I understand, he'll stop at nothing less than the absolute domination of the human race. Plus, he smacked his own mother on national television, in front of the President of the United States. Disgraceful.
Hating Arod has become the new black - just a little too fashionable for my tastes. This seems especially glaring when Maddux's rampant cannibalism is constantly overlooked. I mean how old do you think that little girl was? 8, maybe 9?
