Why do we hate A-rod????

[Bulldog]

I just read this article over at ESPN. Its kind of long but a good read.
I found it interesting as I consider myself an A-Rod fan. The best play I saw from him this year was just a couple of nights ago when he avoided a tag by switching hands as he slid into 2nd base. I think his speed makes him the best player of this generation...

Anyway...

I guess cause he makes so much million of dollars.

A-Rod doesn't bother me. He has good games and bad games.

I don't hate A-Rod. But I do hold his agent in strong disfavor.

[Illusion]

He makes way too much money and is far from a clutch hitter. Oh yeah, and the fact he is a Yankee.

He might be the most hated baseball player ever

1. Very unfriendly to the public
2. Stuck up
3. Very overrated in the clutch, he hit great in Texas and Seattle because the games meant nothing.
4. No personality
5. Never takes a stand, some actually think he is gay

that throwing error he made last night last night doesn't help his case being a well loved player by the yankees fans either.

Why do we hate A-rod????

Because we pay $200/ticket and $10/hot dog so he can make $25m/yr.

FTR, I don't blame the players and don't think we should know their salaries.

[bigboydan]

Wait a minute Bill... From a pay stand point I disagree.

Fans do forget that A-rod did extend an offer to a pay cut if he was traded to boston, but the union wouldn't let him.

If anything we should put the blame on the agents for asking for those crazy amounts of money. Although, I do agree with the media not knowing the players salaries.
