First off we have Alex Rodriquez .

Arguably one of the best baseball players of our time . Some would say ever . He was one of my favorites. I put the emphasis on "was". Back in 2003 he signed a ludicrous deal with the Texas Rangers for the highest salary ever by a player, then said that he did it for the love of the game . WHAT !?!? Now he is labeled as a player that used illegal drugs during his time there . Love of the game huh ?
Next we have Manny Ramirez

Again one of the fan favorites and one of mine . He gets offered a contract for 2 years 35 million dollars back during the election and what does he do ? HE REJECTS IT !! Are you kidding me?! Says he won't play for less than 25 Million a year . So they offer him 1 year at 25 million . He declines that ! Newest offer was 2 year at 45 MILLION DOLLARS !!!!! Guess what .....he declines that !!!!
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the game of Baseball, but this is getting to the point that I would rather get regular Joes who would play just to play the game and have no super stars .
Apparently they haven't heard about the recession . Neither have the Yankees, but that's a blog for another time .
