Is this all you have in all of baseball that wasn't a yankee - overpaying somebody ? A-Rod is on your team now ! Hello. He's probably a freakin bargain at yankee financial terms. The yankees have bought ,sold, traded,overpaid a hundred guys since King G took over in 1973 and you keep going back to one over-priced signing by one other owner ? And again - A Rod is the best player in the game - he should be the highest paid. A Rod what , makes $22 mill a year and you have a Balco boy like Giambi making $18 million a year ? Who's contract is worse ? Here is a dude you stole out of Oakland as the AL MVP. Always hurt, no rings, and under the scope for roids. You probably have eight guys on the yankees with worse contracts than A Rod. Dang T …… you are holding on to this Hicks contract like grimm death.

George didn't offer a-rod that contract. A-Rod probably had to talk Hicks DOWN during those negotiations. The Yanks wanted him but the Rangers wanted too much in return.

Oh yes...and Tiexiera's agent is Scott Boras. I suppose you guys will pin that one on Steinbrenner just like you pin the ridiculous A-Rod contract that Steinbrenner had nothing to do with.

I don't know - are they even the best in their division ? Mets ? Phils ? Atlant fans are shakey - look at the Hawks, even the Falcons without Vick and Blank giving away those uppers in the Dome ? C'mon now Big Ticket .... in the first round of baseball playoffs at Atlanta every year it's " Plenty of Good seats available " Fair Weather ?
