So it’s the 7th inning of what was the last baseball game of the 2007 season. We are watching the Boston Red Sox, THE BOSTON RED SOX!!!!! Get set to win their second World Series title in four years, when Doofus Joe Buck says “We have breaking news from Ken Rosenthal” What? When did Rosenthal become Walter Cronkite?
Rosenthal then tells America that ‘I just got off the phone with Scot Boras and he informs me that Alex Rodriguez will opt out of his contract with the New York (Highlanders) and become a free agent”.
What? Free Agent? Wait. The Red Sox are now the envy of baseball. St. Joseph of Torre is bound for Hollywood. Highlander icon, Donnie Baseball looks to be out of a job that everyone though was a lead pipe cinch to get the mangers job as Joe Giradi looks like he’s in. New Boss, Hank The Bronx Robber Baron Jr. looks like he will give wise ass Highlander Haters like me more material than I could ever hope for. I’m one front line starter added to the Mets starting rotation away from baseball nirvana.
So where does A-Fraud end up? My guess is with the Angels. It’s a perfect fit. Arte Moreno has cash, loves to make a big splash, and Vlady Guerrero needs help in the line up. If Mark Cuban owned the Cubs then they would be in play as well but the Trib is still in power so I’d rule them out. The Sawx? Why? They’re winners he doesn’t fit. The Dodgers? Interesting especially with all the St. Joseph of Torre talk of managing the Hollywood Bums. The Mets? Please keep our little jock sniffer Jeffy Skill Sets away from Boras/A-Fraud Omar or he could fall in man-love with him. I think A-Fraud wants out of NYC anyway. He needs a place where you can play Texas Hold ‘Em in seedy hotels and fuck he/she’s in piece and quiet and SOCAL seems like the place for that.
The guy who makes out the beat in this whole mess is Tom Hicks and His Not So Hot Licks (A/K/A Texas Rangers) who save close to $30 mil that he can now waste on bad pitching.
You know what? I kind of feel sorry for the Used Car Salesman as everyone always shits on his birthday cake.

Awesome, just awesome. The Mets historically collapsed, and the Highlanders have trumped it with all of their bullshit. Torre, Donny Baseball, now A-Rod, it is like getting rejected by some cute chick for the prom, then the hottest girl in school says she wants to take you! What a turn of emotion. We do not, I repeat do not, want A-Rod. Take the $40 million and buy me 2 starters and a position player. I never thought I’d say this, but, “Thanks, Highlanders, just for being you!”

[...] Apparently A-Rod’s, agent Scott Boras attempted to personally notify Yankees general manager Brian Cashman of the decision but couldn’t reach him, so he left a voice mail. [...]

Sorry for sounding ignorant - but who is the “Used Car Salesman?”

The Used Car Salesman is Bud Selig I may have to send you my glossary of Kranepool Society names.

I think so - BTW, I am as anti-Arod to Mets as they come. Everyone over at Flushing U are such A-Rod jock sniffers, I’m outnumbered. Glad to see some are on my side! LOL
