    I bet the Red Sox brass are pretty upset now they didn't give in to the Rangers and get A-Rod while they had the chance. If he had gone anywhere else they wouldn't have regretted not doing the deal, but I bet now they regret it more than ever.

      I was watching Gammons this morning...

      He said the reason the Sox didn't finalize the Arod trade was because they didn't want to pay another 2 million a year after Arod was going to restructure his contract....

      Betcha their kicking themselves now...

        I think Steinbrenner just loves busting Boston's balls so fucking much....

        Waits until they're right there to pull the rug right out from under em....

        I'm not a Yanks fan at all, but this is getting funny to watch.

        Anybody want to put money on him trying to get Nomar for 2nd base?
        That would beat out the A-rod trad in spades...

        "Fuck you, Fluffy."
        "No, no, you're going to upset Fluffy."
        "I ain't saying hello to no stuffed bear."
        "You know, now that I think about it, it's going to take a little longer to sew up that shirt than I was thinking."
        "Hi Fluffy, how you been?"
        "Now that I'm thinking of it even more, it's going to take half the time, Double D, Diamond Dave! Would you hold Fluffy?"
        "N--- yeah."

          Well Nomar for 2nd base would have to be in 2005 if at all, because I don't think the Yankees and Red Sox are ever going to trade with each other. In fact I wonder when the last time they made a trade was, even for minor leaguers.

              They didnt pull the rug out from under the Red Sox... The sox have a budget to stay with....The Yankees dont. Plain and simple.

              The Sox just couldnt afford it, Thats all. If it doesnt happen this year for the Sox, Then next its down hill at a fast rate. Nomar is going, trust me on that. Pedro will be next followed by others. The sox dont have the money to keep everybody on at the levels they demand.

              I think Nomar is going to go wherever they pay him the most....And we all know where that is....

                    dude, rodriguez tried to get rid of well over $10 million to play for the red sox, because he had a better chance of winning. if it was all about the $$ for him, he'd have stayed with texas and earned more. it was the players union that didn't allow him to take a pay cut and move to the sox.

                        Let the cry for a salary cap begin.

                          The Red Sox owner is already starting to cry about salary cap after the Yankees pulled off the deal that they couldn't.

                          I couldn't care either way, Sox or Yanks, but the Red Sox at a payroll of $125 million, they aren't exactly part of the poor. Like knuckleboner said, the Players Union shot down that deal, A-Rod tried to get there.

                            Yeah it's funny how the Sox are bitching how this isn't fair, blah blah blah....when they have the 2nd highest payroll in the league.

                            The fact of the matter is that about 12 million dollars seperated them and getting A-Rod.

                            They were too cheap to pull the trigger.

                              And Steinbrenner adding insult to injury by stating in the press that "Henry didn't want to go the extra mile for his fans."

                              I'll have to admit, for the first time in awhile, I'm more anxious for the baseball season to get started. Even being Tiger fan.
