A-Rod Sucks!

Dear those of my fellow Yankees fans who have spent the last 3 years booing A-Rod at practically every turn,

Although I've refused to join you, I think you've finally won me over. A-Rod does, indeed, suck. Really, what else can you say about a player who has just become the youngest ever to hit 450 career home runs and one of eight to get 2,000 career hits before his 31st birthday?

On second thought, the words "first-ballot Hall-of-Famer" and "one of the best players ever" come to mind. But don't let little things like facts dissuade you.

Hugs and kisses.

I don't know that he sucks offensively, but he's never been all that good defensively at third. I'd like to see them try to shift Jeter to third instead and put Rodriguez back at short. But amidst all the egos and the money goodness knows what can and cannot be done. We're certainly not privy to contract wordings. I just wish the broadcasters would stop making excuses for Rodriguez; next thing you'll hear "well, it was the wrong kind of ball" or "oh, that's the fault of the grass not being cut in the proper direction."
