Re: Is A-Rod \"Becomming\" a Yankee?????
[ QUOTE ]
I wrote a complete sentence. You should work on your reading comprehension. [/ QUOTE ] I merely paraphrased your statement. To suggest "he still sucks" would insinuate that he "currently sucks". My comprehension is fine, its your interpretation of my comprehension that is lacking. [ QUOTE ] Fallen, as in, it is sad that Yankee fans, once a proud bunch, have resorted to being excited over an early season game. As in fallen into mediocrity. [/ QUOTE ] Where did anyone state that Yankee fans have lost their pride or fallen into mediocrity by being excited about an early game. Maybe you should read my original post again. I was excited that a player who has "struggled" since coming to the Yankees is having a "break out game". As a Yankee fan, that IS something to be excited about, just like when Giambi had his "break out game" by hitting a grand slam in the 14th inning to beat the Twins. If I remember correctly, that game was in May. Your mistaking "team" excitement for "individual" excitement. Joe |

"A-Rod will still suck when the game is on the line."
Maybe this is easier: A-Rod will continue to perform like the choke-artist he is when the games matter (not in April)." |

[ QUOTE ]
"Is A-Rod becoming a Yankee?!???" Think about what that title is inferring. A statement as such should be reserved for late season and post season heroics, NOT a 3-run homer game in April. That, is what I find sad. [/ QUOTE ] My title is suggesting that a player who previously has been considered "not a Yankee" is having one of those "special" games that may turn into legend. Just think if he hits 1 more home run: 4 home runs in a game at least 10 RBI in 1 game. How may times has that happened in BASEBALL history????? Oh yeah, he's also doing it at Yankee Stadium, just another historic baseball site. Read the frickin title again: "IS A-ROD BECOMMING A YANKEE?" Not is, not will he become; is he in the process of having a "special" game that you rarely see. Joe |

Add one more single.
A-Rod is 4-4. 3 homers, 9 RBI's, one single. |

It is sad how far Yankee fans have fallen. This game is pointless. A-rod will still suck when the game is on the line. [/ QUOTE ]its a sick display of offense, enjoy it and don't hate. Whenever Manny goes off, I think its just as cool. |
