BT Says Get Rid of A-Rod

Today, Tierney goes on a rant about how the Yankees should dump Arod and blah blah blah blah blah. He's a cheater. He's a headache. They haven't won with him. Etc. Etc. Etc. It's all pretty much BS. Then he lays a good one when the callers call up and said that the Yankees hold onto A-Rod because he gives them more PR and he boosts ticket sales. Somehow some way BT goes retarded.

"The Yankees were filling up the stadium well before A-Rod got there." Cap'n Sleeping Pills

False Brandon, very very very false. Let's take a look at the numbers thanks to Baseball Almanac.


See how the attendance numbers stagnated and then all of a sudden massive uptick in the year of A-Rod's acquistion and the subsequent increases each of the following seasons. Nothing to do with A-Rod obviously.

Uhhhh and then we get into really retarded arguments.

"The Yankees don't need A-Rod to win a World Series and the proof of that is the fact that they haven't won one with him here." Cap'n Sleeping Pills

Hardcore analysis right there. It hasn't happenned so it won't happen. Let's do some diligent analysis myself.

The Cubs haven't won a World Series during Alfonso Soriano's lifetime. They won't win until he dies. So quite obviously if the Cubs want to win a World Series than one of their fans must murder Soriano. Without murdering Soriano, no World Series for you.
