There is no doubt in my mind that A rod will break Aaron's record in his early 40s.

Then again, reasonable Sox fans dont hate all Yankees. I love the way Jeter plays and conducts himself off the field and same with Canoe, Rivera and some other guys on the team.

I do hope that he breaks that record...

On the way back, I read the same thing with Tom Brady. And all his answers were places that the everyday person could afford to go, much more down to earth.

If A-Rod hits the 100 RBI mark by the All-Star break (only a couple players have ever done it but if I recall correctly Juan Gone-zales achieved in back in his Texas days) ... then we'll start talking about A-Rod breaking anything except his perfectly manicured nails.

maybe I was expecting to hear something worst story than that... I hope you understand where I'm coming from. For the record, I'm not a A-rod lover anything like that so don't want to start e-fight.

What Would Don Draper Do?
from bill simmons:
Moo (SF): Do the Yankees fans like A-Rod yet, or will they always hate him no matter what he does? I think he has the worst home run celebration I have ever seen (next to Mike Schmidt's 500th HR dance). p.s. how much weight has A-Rod put on since last year, and has anyone questioned this yet? He looks big.
Bill Simmons: It's a love-hate thing -- A-Rod is like the guy in college who had a fake ID and could buy beer, but everyone hated him, only they knew they needed him to get thru the year. So they put him with him because it's a means to an end, but they'd never hang out with him if he didn't have the fake ID.
All right, that didn't make sense.

He could have 20 HR and 50 RBI by May 1.
