Do you know this or are you just speculating
Yes, I actually do.......
you do realize that those events (that you are re-living) were decades ago right?.....I'm talking about what's going on now, not 35 years ago.
The Yankees winning the game tonight pales in comparison to the Circus that the NYY are turning into (IMO).
I never brought up what happened in the 80's, 70's, or earlier......
Well, of course I don't know for a fact, but it's a fairly reasonable assumption... I mean it is the Internet so it could be a lie, but it makes perfect sense to me and adds up to what Cashman said.
"Alex Rodriguez may have tied Willie Mays for fourth place on the all-time home run list Friday night with a screaming line drive into the Green Monster seats at Fenway Park, but as far as the Yankees are concerned, nothing has changed. According to a source familiar with the marketing agreement the Yankees negotiated with Rodriguez in 2007 that could allow him to earn a series of $6 million payouts for moving up the home run list, the club will not declare the homers a “milestone” and is prepared to go to arbitration to prove they are not marketable as such. The marketing agreement, which states that the Yankees have a right but not an obligation to declare the homers a milestone, is separate from Rodriguez’s player contract, which calls for A-Rod to be paid $61 million through 2017.
The Daily News first reported the club’s position in January, and according to the source, “nothing has changed. They are fully prepared to demonstrate that the home runs are unmarketable.”"

Also History may yet see the Home Run Records* become just that, "asterisked" or possibly still altogether invalidated.
Imagine the latter of the two occur at some point, HR Records of the Steroid Era are invalidated, wiped from the canvas.
How utterly FOOLISH do you look as an Organization that paid out $6,000,000 on such a record?
As I said before, this has got to be litigated. This is "Modern Dance", as much a part of our culture (litigation, court battles), the very fabric of who we are now as a People as the Hula is to Hawaiians or deflecting the conversation away from the suckiness of The Red Sox is to MikeB.
If an Insurance Co. is involved as was the case with the payout of Lance Armstrong's bonuses you can be sure that the language was tight, on point...and that the case to not payout is good. If just NYY lawyers ("Outside Counsel"...assuming they don't have their own lawyers on staff) drafted the contract you can be similarly sure its vague, incomprehensible at times and purposefully written to maximize Billable Hours via later confusion/litigation.
Its fine to have an opinion, one side or the other but surely you can see this has to be litigated and if either side doesn't exercise the entirety of their legal rights to be paid/not pay that side that does not is totally stupid.

That's a dumb analogy. Do pain pills do this?
nah, he spent a lot of time in the gym.
if id posted the opposite youd have wanted to argue as well.
pain pils allow you to play through pain when other guys cant. muscles/size are like 5% of the equation for hitting a homerun.
steriods wasnt a problem for MLB when the great white hope McGwire and smiling Sammy keeping were filling up stadiums. . let an angry black man do it and awwww shit we must ostracize him and the green eyed hispanic with the 1/4 billion contract thats fucking all the models.
murfreesboro, TN.
Raymond Berry lives there. He's 82 years old. WR, Baltimore Colts during their two NFL championship wins. Coached New England Patriots to Super Bowl XX. Also the site of one of the worst, maybe the actual worst, battles of the Civil War.
At and around what is now the intersection of Frankiln & Gresham?

Cool. Can you tell me which gym exercises cause your head to double in size?
Mike Murphy, the San Francisco Giants’ clubhouse manager, testified Monday in the home-run champion’s perjury trial that Bonds’ cap size increased for the 2002 season. It went from 7 1/4 to 7 3/8, Murphy said.
This, despite the fact Bonds had begun shaving his head.
Now, on the surface, this might not seem like a big deal. Murphy also testified that aging ex-players such as Willie Mays and Willie McCovey had required similar adjustments to their ballcaps.
However, Bonds was still in the middle of his playing career, when cap sizes rarely change. Oh, yeah, and he was also coming off a 73-homer season in which he broke Mark McGwire’s (tainted) record.
Use of human growth hormone is widely believed to cause enlarged head size, which is why I tried (without success) to obtain one of Bonds’ Pittsburgh-era baseball caps at several points in the past decade.
Thanks to Murphy’s testimony, that’s no longer necessary.
At long last, it appears we have our smoking ballcap.
He`s not getting paid.......DONE DEAL!
