manny for a-rod? that would be a ******** trade. are you kidding me? i thank my lucky stars everyday that the sox never got him in the first place. he's too much work. A-rod is all about himself. which won't fly too well here in boston. the fans will eat him alive. he oculdn't hack it in new york, do you really think he can hack it in boston? let's get serious. he needs to be on a team that has no other superstars. and there aren't any. i've ran downt he list with a few people and we have come up empty handed. his best bet is if bonds is done, then the giants. other than that its time for him to hang it up. he talked about retiring at 35 anyway, why not make it a few years earlier and save everyone the time and aggrivation? It would be a huge huge huge mistake to trade manny for arod. the thought alone makes me vomit in my mouth a little.... Seriously, the guy is such a liability. liek so many have mentioned above, he's waay to sensitive with the media. plus the ass hole will still stick his cleat in his mouth, night after night. i couldn't handle having to watch him play everyday. can you imagine him and tek in the same locker room??? that would be interesting. as it was he was on the opposite end of jeets.... quite simply put, he doesn't belong here, and wouldn't fit in here.
