A-Rod

So, I know non-Yankee fans don't understand why Yankee fans give A-Rod such a hard time. I think it goes back to A-Rod's first year with the Yanks. I hate to recall that year...but it was the year that the punks in Boston beat the Yanks to go on and win the Series. A-Rod choked in his first post season as a Yankee. As a Yankee fan, that's hard to forgive. Though that was a few years ago, it's just hard to get over.

It seems like A-Rod just doesn't have the personality of a Yankee. He seems too whiney at times. If he'd just forget about being loved by NY like Jeter and just play ball and do well in the playoffs...then he'd be accepted as a Yankee.

He hit a game winning grand slam Saturday... that was awesome! We, Yankee fans, don't cheer against him. We love it when he does well...as long as the Yankees do well. It's all about the Yankees. When A-Rod figures out that it's not about him, it's about the team then the better off he'll be. It's not a personal thing, A-Rod. Just go out there and play ball. Don't whine to the media and make an issue of it. Just play ball and play ball well (especially in October)...then you'll earn your Yankee pinstripes.

Autumn, I did not know if you had heard that we had a miscarriage last week. This past week has been really tough. Our new church family has been great at caring for and providing for us. God has granted us much grace to get through this time. Just wanted to let you know what was going on. Hope everything is going well for you. Talk to you soon!
