The AL MVP
Yes, Singapore Sox Fan has not been updating much - largely because work commitments will be flinging me into London and Montreal for the next three weeks, and since it's the offseason I will take the occasion to take a slight break... meanwhile my main blog will keep chugging along.
But just a quick word in to say: I don't really mind that A-Rod won the AL MVP - and that he's won it at 2 positions (and not easy ones to play at that) is actually pretty impressive. His comments though are so filled with self-import:

But just a quick word in to say: I don't really mind that A-Rod won the AL MVP - and that he's won it at 2 positions (and not easy ones to play at that) is actually pretty impressive. His comments though are so filled with self-import:
"We can win three World Series; with me, it's never going to be over. I think my benchmark is so high that no matter what I do, it's never going to be enough, and I understand that"Big Papi's rings: 1... A-Rod's: 0. I also thought this was reflective of A-Rod's "I have to carry the team approach"...
"My one regret is I thought I could have walked 10 or 12 times and really just passed the baton and been a little bit more patient," he said. "Probably at the end, I got a little overanxious."That lovely GIDP near the end of the Yankees' 2005 season... brilliant.
while i do hate arod, its hard to argue with him as the statistical mvp, ill take papi everday of the week and twice on sunday (or after the 6th inning)
btw, I dont know if you’ve seen it yet but i just got my copy of that City of Champions dvd. It’s pretty sick. There’s footage of pretty much every major Boston team over the last century and even more. my buddy works for the company and gave me this code to knock 20 percent off the price. just go to www.cityofchampionsdvd.com and type INSIDER1 in the shopping cart. Figure everyone could use something for the stockings during the holidays!
