A-Fraud up to his old tricks

Man, Alex Rodriguez is a great guy.
Yeah, right.
A-Rod, after blowing off former Yankees manager and current Dodgers main man Joe Torre days ago during batting practice – not even offering a wave or a hand shake – finally went up to Torre after a couple days to look like a good guy.
Don’t buy that for one minute.
A-Rod care about his image, and the latest hit to his image was how he couldn’t even go up to shake his former manager’s hand.
But after a couple days – more like a couple days of bad press – he decided the time was right to bury the hatchet.
Are you taking the bait?
Not here, not even from a big Yankees fan.
Listen, maybe A-Rod’s a real nice guy, but his constant calculated moves are a tired act.
Obviously, he doesn’t like Torre for the way the manager spoke of him in a book and dropped him to 8th in the batter order when the slugger was scuffling. Yes, that would tick me off, too.
I would have been more happy with A-Rod coming out in the media and saying he dislikes Torre and won’t shake, hug or even wave at his former manager. That would be an honest and real emotion, and one that I could respect.
I thought A-Rod stopped caring about what other people say about him?
We know that’s not the case, at all.
It’s too bad that A-Rod will never be able to shake off that bad nickname of A-Fraud?
But, I guess, he brings it on himself.
