The brosius with the most-ius

Was anyone else surprised not to see his name? I thought for sure he was going to be named in the report based on his '98 numbers. He was the guy I thought of off the bat when this all went down. He seemed like a Brady Anderson type, he came from relative obscurity and then all of a sudden hes the definition of "true yankee". I guess he was before Mcnamee's time but I was pretty certain we'd be hearing his name.

For all we know the sources mentioned could very well be Boras, but you had to know the Yankees werent going to just let him walk away. Now all of a sudden the same people who said Hank et al were playing hardball and were not going to negotiate with A-rod are calling their alleged hardlined, principled stance, "posturing."

Looks like the talking heads seem to remember that the yankees and a-rod would be negotiating and maybe in negotiations its not best to let the other side know youre dying to get him back? But lets go with the "yankees tell a-rod its over" angle thatll get people talking.

Makes you wish there was some kind of accountability in sports journalism rather than rampant speculation and conjecture.
