Are you kidding me! That's like Kevin Federline saying his rap album was a good career choice! Has anyone seen a Johnny Damon commercial lately? It could be for anything, shoes, a book, or even a razor to shave his beard? Or has anyone spotted the on-air talents of Mrs. Johnny Damon? Hell no! That's because J.D. is invisible, a non-factor in New York. With a Yankees team with no less than 12 All-Stars, poor J.D. is about as popular as Rick Pitino in Boston. What happens to man who lost millions in endorsments, and lost a city in Boston that embraced him for who he was? A lot of regret! Stupid hurts J.D.!
