December 17, 200322 yr If ARod was pleased with the restructuring, why are they getting involved? I thought they were supposed to step in if the player takes issue with the restructuring? Maybe I understood that incorrectly, oh well.
December 17, 200322 yr and Leon's getting Laaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrger. LMAO!!! 'And don't call me Shirley!'
December 17, 200322 yr If ARod was pleased with the restructuring, why are they getting involved? I thought they were supposed to step in if the player takes issue with the restructuring? Maybe I understood that incorrectly, oh well. The Union won't ok restructuring unless it somehow benefits the player.
December 17, 200322 yr The Union won't ok restructuring unless it somehow benefits the player. How about putting A-Rod in a Huge market for baseball and prolly making him another 5 mil a year in endorsements?
December 17, 200322 yr The Union won't ok restructuring unless it somehow benefits the player. Even if the player is pleased with the restructuring? Well, that's pretty fricken stupid. Oh freaking well.
December 17, 200322 yr Even if the player is pleased with the restructuring? Well, that's pretty fricken stupid. Oh freaking well. no that's the most powerful union is sports.
December 17, 200322 yr no that's the most powerful union is sports. I wish my fiance's and my father's union were that strong. Maybe my dad would be making more than $11.25 after 20 years and my fiance would have his journeyman's card already.
December 17, 200322 yr There is a part of me that will not be too sad if this deal does not go through That way, that money-mongering ass Arod will have to play for Texas for some more time, giving him no shot at the Wolrd Series Championship That way the BoSox will be stuck with Manny for that ridiculous contract Nomah will be pissed to play for the BoSox, so will Manny....leading to lots of fun in Boston Maggs will be pissed for a while, but I do not see him letting him affect his play, and he knows it is a business, and that the White Sox do not have the revenue for him anyways next year
December 17, 200322 yr and according to Gammons the Sox will keep Nomar. Which 'Sox' are keeping Nomar? I take you are saying the White Sox wouldn't retrade him after acquiring him? (Just checkin')
December 17, 200322 yr and according to Gammons the Sox will keep Nomar. Jason Gage - Day late and a dollar short
December 17, 200322 yr Jason Gage - Day late and a dollar short Lol...I had homework to study for..well finals. If I finish my studying soon enough it means I can go see Lord of the Rings tonight...instead of waiting till Saturday.
December 17, 200322 yr Even if the player is pleased with the restructuring? Well, that's pretty fricken stupid. Oh freaking well. IMHO the Players Union has that in their agreement with MLB so that no player could be pressured into restructuring his contract. If there was that loop hole, clubs could pressure players to say they want to drop their salary by X dollars to help the team, etc. That's one of the advantages of associations for the members and one of the thorns for owners.
