He's a phony. Think J.D. Salinger and 'The Catcher in the Rye'. Whatever happened to that word? A phony is just somebody that most people intuitively dislike, because, he/she is well, phony. And most people just sense it. End of story, no other explantion necessary. C’mon folks, it ain’t that hard to figure out why people don’t like ARod. He’s a phony. Think J.D.

Boston's media isn't that far off from NY's in terms of its omnipresence and undue influence on the team and the players themselves. Rodgriguez wouldn't have found Boston's pastures any greener, or its townsfolk more forgiving. ARod sounds like Derek ... Zoolander. "There's more to life than being really really really good looking." Blue Steel!!
