Shame he didn't turn out as a role model style player, I think what A-Rod really needs is a new team.

First off, no one forced the Texas Rangers to offer A-Rod a $225,000,000 contract. No one held a gun to the owners head and said, "You do this or we deep fry your carpeting and serve it to you over steamed rice."
As for his contract enabling him to in your words,

, what exactly do you mean?
A-Rod is the consensus choice for best player in baseball by all respected journalists/columnists/sportscasters etc.
It is the douchebag New York City media that has set out to destroy A-Rod's reputation by printing bullshit lies, which you seem to take as Og's own truth. And as for his not being a role model player, please?
Has he ever been busted for drugs or soliciting a prostitute or for doing roids? he was gracious enough to move over to third base, while saying nothing about Derek Jeter's whining to Steinbrenner and Torre that he, Jeter would never play third and would demand a trade if placed there. This despite the fact that Jeter is a mediocre shortstop at best, and would do much better at third base.
But according to you, he's a much better team player then A-Rod.
As for Bonds, all of the shrieking and bleating by the so-called fans is hypocrisy in it's worst form, seeing as these same people were standing and applauding back in 1998 when Mcgwire and Sosa were slamming them out of the park every night.

Excuse me?
Racist towards whom? What comments has Bonds made that could be construed as racist?
