I don't necessarily like what Arroyo said. I understand he was hurt and upset but to basically say "I'm just going to go and do my time" like it's a fucking prison sentence is a pathetic attitude.
I cannot feel sorry for a man that makes millions of dollars (multiple times more than I will probably make in this lifetime). For him to say what he did shows me how fucked up the attitudes are in baseball.
You don't have to be ecstatic but come on...... at least say something like, "Boston was cool but I'm a Red now and they must have truly wanted me. I'll prove that they made the right decision. Who knows maybe I'll get to beat the Sox in the World Series."
That would have been class....... not whining and saying "I'll go and play, but my heart won't be in it and I'm just pitching there till my contract runs out and I'm getting the fuck out of that Hell-hole."
No class. FANS run this and to talk like he did shows no respect to the fans, to his new team or for the MILLIONS he'll make playing a fucking game.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
