Look, you Yankee-homers....it's never about the "yankee mystique", or the "honor of wearing the pinstripes",....its always about the DOLLARS!!!! MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY!!

This new contract will take care of him through the rest of his career. Period.

Cashman did say that if Arod DOES opt out, the yanks will not deal with him. Split hairs if you must, but youre only making yourselves look ridiculous.

He's leaving to the highest bidder, just like Damon did and others before him. God bless America, huh? HIghest bidder wins!
