Larry,

Don't get caught up in hoping that he will fail, why don't drop the arguments and just wait and see? If you let your opinions flourish, you'll be rooting against the sox by April 1... then you'll be no better than these Skankee Fans :P. Let's just hope he does well, we've only seen his knock down pitch (poor henry ). I want him to do well and the sox to go with him...

-Dave

Dave....I think my attitude has more to do with the silly, financial goings on in major league sports in recent years than the fact that they signed "an individual". The kind of money these teams spend and how they spend it just seems so damn silly to me and the fact that they pay this guy with no major league experience just boggles my mind! Time will tell! Sports is quickly losing me....its becoming a rich mans take....ticket prices and such! I am about done and to be honest....I do hope he falls flat on his face!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Ahh, the truth comes out. I get ya now Larry... but it's still not Dice-K's fault... if you want someone to fall flat on his face it should be Henry... (But he already did, thanks to Daisuke )... Money is always going to be the name of this game from now on... it's an unfortunate truth... what can ya do

The sad truth is I can't see him getting the salary he will be getting and he has not paid his dues in the Majors as many others have......he is unproven yet he is making top dollar from the ground floor instead of having to earn his way there through performance!?!?! I just think there is something wrong with it!!!
