          LMFAO...I just saw because Or....

          I can't disagree with your statements about Ortiz...hell...you could say Strawberry was classier than Manny...

          You know...ARod makes that kinda money...but he's a leader...a quiet leader...but a leader...relatively classy...

          Manny has none of that...none...10 cent head...

            ARod a leader? Um, do you even WATCH baseball, Pojo?

            (what? you didnt think I was gonna let that slip by, did you?)

              Look...you can say what you want about baseball...you can say what you want about ARod...

              but the ONLY beef people have against him is playing teams against each other to raise his payday...

              he doesn't do drugs...he doesn't cause dissention in the clubhouse...he just goes out and plays...and does it better than just about anybody else...

              And before you start talking about how he's never played for a winner...a World Series winner...lmfao...

              well...go ahead...I'll wait and retort...

                ...except when it counts! He's the Peyton Manning of baseball! You just are in LOVE with regular season stats.

                And I dont believe for a second that he gets along with everyone in the clubhouse...not according to players from Seattle and Texas

                  Jesus Christ Rental...

                  yeah...yeah...fuck regular season stats....they don't fucking mean anything....

                  You asked me if I watched baseball...now I get to throw it back at you...

                  ARod has always been clutch in the playoffs...but wait...they didn't win...so it was his fault...christ...

                  He has what...a .330 lifetime average in the playoffs...7 or 8 dingers...20 or so RBIs?

                  and in what...25 playoff games...yeah...those stats suck...it was all his fault...

                  I'm not going to get into it with you about what players are saying about him in the clubhouse. You make 25 million a year...players are going to get pissed off...that's just the way it is...but he's always performed...period...

                    Peyton Manning of baseball...jesus christ dude...what's gotten up your ass lately?

                    you uptight because I don't like Brady...and...um...no offense...it has nothing to do with your Patriots...and everything to do with the college he comes from...

                    As I've said before...you have acquired this "YankeeLike" swagger...

                      Yeah, I am a spoiled sports fan...I even admitted it in another thread!

                      .330, 6 HR and 16 RBI in 26 post season games. I didnt say he SUCKED...(although those RBI's are a little soft...)

                      You are a big 'Stats' guy...thats why you love Manning and A-Rod...I, however, am an 'intangeables' guy...hard to defend because intangeables are difficult to statisticaly describe...

                      Here is what I mean by sucking when 'it counts'...

                      Manning vs. Pats early this year...Colts driving...end of the game...all Manning has to do is NOT GET SACKED OUT OF FIELD GOAL RANGE and Vanderjackoff chips one home for a Colts win. What happens? He doesnt look to his right, and gets pancaked by Willie McGinnest OUT OF FIELD GOAL RANGE! Vandy's streak of 30something FG's in a row is broken...

                      2004 ALCS...the momentum in that game was turning to the Yankees...what does A-Rod do? He has a brain-fart and tries to swipe the ball out of Arroyo's glove (which is against the rules)...

                      It's the intangeables, dude. I didnt say that they sucked...its just that when the game is on the line, they wouldnt be my first picks...

                        I AM a stats guy...love them...

                        I also dig the intangibles...

                        however...there are players I also don't like...and players I like...which has nothing to do with stats...

                        I don't like Manning...but he wins by default over Brady because of one thing...U of M...

                        I also realize that Manning's stats are bloated this year because of the new defensive rules for corners...but I'll back him over Brady any day of the week...simply because I can't stand WolverQueens...

                        Manning can still overcome all that's been said of him with a Super Bowl win...in which case the who's better becomes a mute point...we'll see if that can happen...

                        the ARod discussion...well...I don't want to go there...I think they lost for more than the swipe...but I get your point...

                        I'm almost afraid of who your first pick would be in baseball...

                          Love Manning and ARod...

                          what that statement proves is that I'm a good debater..because I love neither...

                          as a matter of fact...my favorite QB right now is all about intangibles...as Roeth's stats would indicate...

                          They never needed a stats guy...just an "intangibles" guy...

                              I'd put Varitek and Posada on the same level, IMO, decent catchers who are a tad bit overrated because of the teams they play for....
