Ok, here it goes. I am sick of summers spent waiting for NHL draft day, free agency and season opener.

I WANT to get more into baseball, I fully understand the game and everything but I need to learn the players.

I like the BoSox, I hate ARod and I am hoping a bosox fan will help me out.

I see him as the face of the Yankees and I don't like them at all. Way too many bandwagon Yankee fans I see. plus, he is rather terrible when it matters from what I know.

Really? No offense but I always thought when people thought of "The face of the Yankees" everyone would think Derek Jeter. Frankly I don't even like A-Rod that much and I am a damn Yankee fan.

A-Rod is an awesome player, but he has pulled some antics some people don't like: slapping the ball off Bronson Arroyo's glove during the 2004 ALCS...yelling "I GOT IT!" as he was heading towards third base when a teammate hit a flyball during a game in Toronto against the Jays in 2007...and running across the mound during a game against the A's, angering pitcher Dallas Braden...

...so little things like that make people dislike him.

A-Rod "kinda" is getting a pass on his admitted use of Steroids, too...not that I believe he should get blackballed from the game like Barry Bonds was, but with as much focus the media puts on it, you'd think they would've been much harder on him.

I used to be big on ARod, even when the yanks traded for him, despite me not being a Yankees fan (sweeping my Padres in 98 changed my tune forever).

I am, to this day, a fan of Alex Rodriguez the player. Steroids or not, this guy will go down as one of the very best players of his generation, and of all time. He was the best shortstop of his time from the moment he debuted to the moment he had to move to third due to the trade.

As a person, I dislikle ARod. I think he's a coward, I think he's weak, and I frankly I just don't like him. Trying to use the "I felt pressured" BS when reasoning why he did steroids was a huge hit to his character. By that logic, he should've been doing roids since his initial debut, seeing as he was arguably the most talked about up and comer since Griffey.

It just irritated me how he tried to portray himself, the best player in baseball who signed a $250 million deal that changed the way free agency is handled forever, as a victim of his own success. Bull. Shit.

Him cheating on his wife with Madonna, while not exactly plausible, is not really of any concern to me. I honestly couldn't care less.

And Jeter is far and away the face of the franchise. Not even close. If you don't believe me, go back and look at how fans reacted from 2004 to 2008, when the Yankees were losing in the postseason. Neither Jeter nor ARod were all to helpful in losing, but ARod was the one getting hammered. I get it's due to his contract and that he's a bigger profiled player than Jeter, but still.

Getting rid of Jason Frasor would be addition by subtraction, and the fact they sent down Casey Janssen when Dotel was activated hurts my head.

Alright, perhaps I started off on the wrong foot. I don't have good reasons for not liking the Yankees or ARod, I just don't.

Also, I am picking the BoSox moreso so people cant call me a bandwagon jumper as they are starting the season very terribly.

Oh and I wanted to watch more in 2005, but we all know how the World Series went the year prior.

Could you please elaborate that? Are you calling us bandwagon fans? Or are there a lot of bandwagon Yankee fans in Canada? Cause I can't speak for anyone else here. But I come from New Jersey, so the Yankees are the closest baseball team to me. And ever since I have gotten into baseball about 1999. I have been a die hard Yankee fan.

Am I the only person who thinks the Red Sox is going to go on like a ten game winning streak the first second they get back home ? (Unfortunately for me at least)

Around here, In Nova Scotia. I remember the local sports store being sold out of Yankees hats during the 04 world series.

I did not know that. But, 2004? I'm kinda amazed that Yankees "Bandwagon fans" would be around . A definition of a band wagon fan would be someone who's a fan of a certain team who's successful at the time. And 2004 was the Year when the Yankees got Owned by the Red Sox in the playoffs. If anything I would have said that that was when the Red Sox bandwagon fans came around.

Tampa Bay Rays designated hitter Manny Ramirez is retiring.


Major League Baseball announced the move in a statement on Friday.

"Major League Baseball recently notified Manny Ramirez of an issue under Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program," the statement said. "Rather than continue with the process under the Program, Ramirez has informed MLB that he is retiring as an active player. If Ramirez seeks reinstatement in the future, the process under the Drug Program will be completed. MLB will not have any further comment on this matter."

Looks like Manny got busted again. Huge blow to the Rays.

My city is right across the border from Detroit. The city is basically split into three groups : Tigers fans, Jays fans and Yankees fans. ALOT of Yankees fans show up to the Rogers Centre when New York is in town. 3 of my close friends are Yankees fans.
