That's been my pick for where he goes ever since last summer's compliment exchange festival they had with each other. I also think that just like the last contract, only even more so this time, the dollar amount will be overstated with low interest paid on deferred money. As most people don't understand the time value of money ARod & agent will get the massive ego-stroke of big money amounts, never mind that the 1/2 the payday will be post-2020 at 2.5% interest or whatever. (Not to say the money won't be great, it just isn't as big as stated when structured like that.) From what I've read it appears the LA Angels of Anahiem [ugh] are making it no secret they are interested in signing him. If the Giants can't make it happen, I'd rather see A-Rod in LAA of A uniform than in a [hated] Dodgers uniform in a heartbeat.

Dan, The LA Angels of Anahiem [what a stupid name] are on the West coast, too

Forget it, Guys. A-Rod is going West. You heard it here first.

Yeah, well, he wants to win a championship and figures that the Red Sox have the best chance to win more than one over the life of a contract. Note that he isn't hot to join San Francisco because he thinks they are going to win anytime soon. That's not what I hear. SF would be the best fit for him as a shortstop [his natural position] and in the high praise and accolades squandered on him in NY. Boston could give a shit from what I have heard.

Has anyone noticed that A-Rod's team of choice is the Red Sox? How 'bout them apples, eh?

Mad Dog 20/20 Enhancer. Too funny!

That's your hero? A man who assaults women and anyone else who pisses him off? And who has the chutzpah to sue his victims for five million dollars for "a violation of his First Amendment rights, and alleged defamation, libel, malicious prosecution, false imprisonment and an abuse of process." You've got one fucked up definition of "hero" pal. Not only is this guy a world class asshole but it sounds to me like he's swindled the taxpayers of New York for "disability" pay while being perfectly capable of assault and intimidation. A thousand Duly noted douche bag. Nonetheless, cellphone addicts are the new crackheads....teenagers are the worst culprits. Especially, text messaging during class time. As a teacher, I think we should have the right to take a kid's cellphone away, use up all their minutes, smash it into little tiny pieces then hand it back to them in a plastic baggie with a smiley face on it saying, "Have a Nice Day."

And all was right with the World.

What do you want to bet the Enhancer will be a Christmas time staple on TV commercials along with Chia Pet, the Salad Shooter and The Clapper? Runaway, rampant consumerism.

As if the fires weren't bad enough. What a drag.

Pardon me for saying so, but that has to be a gimmick. The Chia Pet of wine.

That's a fact, too. I owned a '64 Bug then later the first roll-top '64 Bug [not at the same time]. The only thing that stopped my first Bug was it was stolen, rolled then stripped. Broke my heart, too. Those wind wing windows were easy for crooks to pop open. The second one swallowed a valve, but I still got top dollar for it. Other then that, those things would run on kerosene and had snap together pieces. I really miss driving a V-Dub. Besides the Mustang....it is probably the only thing they got right.

Oh absolutely, Tom. I could never think of you as anything less than well worn and durable

Just as a point of reference though....my Toyota truck is 26 years old and runs like a champ.

I'd like to apologize, too....and for my existence in a place I never wanted to be forever associated with in the minds of my fellow posters. Cashing in my chips and moving on to other threads, other forums. Peace...out. Tim

Well, OK...they could give me one. But I'd sell it the next day and buy a real car. Grrrrrr

I once owned a '72 Pinto...you know, the exploding model. On a good day, the car could go 60mph, downhill....and with a tailwind. Gearbox locked up on the freeway once and I did a four wheel slide to a stop in the fast lane. Fixed that and then the engine blew. Smoke, engine parts, oil, water...the whole nine yards. I sold it for parts. They couldn't give me an American made car.

Now that's funny.

Ditto. Nuff said?

I leave that for you to sift through. You seem to drag a trail of irate posters. Do I now. Maybe they're irate because I have the guts to call them on their bullshit. Would you be one of them? Sour grapes. I see. And you would be the poster boy of civility and logic, eh? Guess again. Trying to cover for your own piss poor pontification on this BBS is no excuse for arrogance, Mister connoisseur series500. BTW...my name is Tim and I'm not as big an asshole as you pretend. OK? Maybe you just need to back the hell off with your own bullshit and realize your shit does stink. If you can understand that concept, then we will get along just fine. Dig?

Why would you assume anything about which team someone likes based on where they live? I lived in Germany for 9 yrs, yet I liked the Cowboys there too. How can that be?? Please. He lives in Ohio. It is an easy assumption to make and one which, unless you knew otherwise, would be a pretty fair bet. Here, I'll show you: You live in Texas. You like the Ca'boyz. See? Amazing, isn't it. Hey look! GS lives in California...ergo he must like earthquakes! Huh? Are you equating natural disaters with the Ca'boys or Patriots now? Earth to Connoisseur series500 boy......come in please. You're breaking up.
