McCain Humiliated at his own party

If true, this explains why McCain refused to even look at Obama........

I guess if I was unprepared for a meeting that I orchestrated, I would be humiliated too.

A-Rod is a Whiney-titty-baby Drama Queen

Alex Rodriguez is the highest paid baseball player. Clearly he comes with an expensive emotional maintenance agreement. He has an awesome swing. When he doesn't let his head get in the way of his gift, he is great on the field. A-Rod, unlike Derrick Jeter, does NOT have the reputation for being a clutch player. A-Rod builds his stats in meaningless situations, say the Yankees are up by a gazillion, he hits a homerun. Deep into the season, because of his poor play, Joe Torre dropped him in the order. Any real ball player knows that you have hit your way back up in the order. Crying about it doesn't get it done. Jeeze...

Jeter on the other hand is a walking highlight reel. ESPN loves him. In a critical situation, who will I put in the line up? That would be Jeter. Rodriguez's performance sucked last year. He made ESPN for the mistakes he made on and off the field.

A-Rod wasn't unpacked in Florida whenhe started the spring training drama. He felt compelled to announce to the press, he and Jeter don't spend as much time together off the field. A-Rod is a head case. A couple of years ago, he pushed Jeter under the team bus in a magazine article. He said that Jeter wasn't leader because he was surrounded by so much talent. Why would that annoy Jeter?

Maybe, A-Rod should simply not speak, because he spends years trying to spin his comments. Or another overlooked detail, A-Rod is married and Jeter isn't. A fine specimen of a single man's social life is going to be a little different than a married man's. Maybe that is why you don't hang out as much. Grow up Alex.

Until he becomes "the man" in critical situation, he really needs to STFU.
