RE: When's the last time we talked about the Mariners?!! ;~)) Did you know A-rod's gone!

A-rod Schmay-rod.

What has he done for me lately?

He has a history of saying all he wants to do is win it all and doesn't care <much> about his own pay to do that. [no links, too lazy.] So what does he do? Leaves a team with likely the best championship prospects of any (with him on the team). Granted, not a batter's park. But that is precisely the reason the M's already have and will get more and will keep awesome pitchers <the real ingredient for post season success>.

I was a big fan of his once. Until he showed his true
dollar stained colors. <and left the team in the process> EDIT: I don't blame him for going for the $$$, just don't preach one thing <winning team is most important> then do another. To be fair, I don't know if Texas will be competitive or not. Seems like his ridiculous salary will hurt more than help.

P.S. No bias here either!
