As reported on the yahoo.com recently, A-Rod has a no.1 choice of where he'd like 2 go & that's the Red Sox. Would you want him on the Sox? A yes or no. And you can give reasons why or why not. The link below has proof of this. And there's comments on fans mainly not wanting him on the Sox.

I want him. Not for 300 million dollars, though. He's the best player in baseball, but he would improve the Red Sox from a 96-100 win team to a 100-104 win team or something like that. Not really worth 30 million bucks for that.
He'd be a lot more valuable to a team that isn't already awesome.

The problem with ARod in Boston is that, if this were another team

ditto. not for the money he'll be wanting. but if "reasonable" and "arod" could fit into the same sentence as "signs with the red sox" i'd be all for it. so i'll say unsure

Exactly. If he were willing to sign a reasonable deal, say 5/100, then I would jump on that in a heartbeat. I'd forgive his douchebaggery without question. But he won't sign that deal so it's a moot point. For me, it's all about not working financially and not his douchebag personality. mahalo
