I’ve always heard about these “legendary” binders that Boras would prepare, so I was surprised at how shallow it really is. Yet, after I thought it over, the binder is more marketing than substance. Everyone knows that A-Rod is a great player, so I can see Boras yelling at his staff to turn the five page binder into a 50-page binder. “Our client is substantial, so the binder needs to be big!” Face it, he’s marketing his client to extremely rich people who want a nice, shiney object. That object was A-Rod.

A-rod is one of the best players in baseball every year. Yankee fan’s aren’t stupid, we would make the playoffs without A-rod, we would just have to trade and make some moves to do it, but we would still do it. We take A-rod because he is going to perform, he did better this year and will continue to do better. I took the time to read Boras’s binder, it’s interesting stuff. A lot of fluff is in there, but A-rod deserves big bucks, not as much as he gets, but he is certainly the best offensive player currently playing.

Man, ARod haters and Boras haters unite! Damn, if that book got him that huge contract I want one of what you guys called a jr. high year book. Of course its hard to find a guy with numbers like ARod. Or for people that blast him for postseason failures (Yankee fans are stupid), there is no postseason without ARod.

I would not compare a winner who has won dozens of championships (Tiger) to a loser who has never even been to the final of his sport (ARod). ARod’s equivalent in golf would be someone who repeatedly shoots +8 in the back 9 on Day Four of the majors. ARod is the highest paid player in his sport. That’s the only thing that measures up with Tiger.

I can’t find anything on Alex’s World Series stats.

What a complete waste of paper, smells like a last minute jr. high presentation in both its depth and relevance. Let’s hope more players follow A-Rod’s superior knowledge and leadership and fire Boras so we can stop hearing about him.

ummm….look at AROD now. he’s amazing. he’s gonna crush a lot of offensive records including mr bonds’. he’s gonna do it quickly. you guys should recognize that along with Tiger Woods we’re watching the greatest ever. In their prime! so next time don’t flip through the channels watch AROD and Tiger any chance you get. you’ll be able to tell your grandkids you used to watch the best on TV.

Shows that Alex the Purple Lipped Princess is tacky yet again.

If you really are that good you do not need to toot your own horn so much.

Ask Larry Bowa who is better Alex or Jeter, ask him now after seeing them both play day in and day out. I bet you he changes his answer (I know this because I heard him say it on the radio )
