This particuar question your asking here has been debated by Boston journalism royalty eg Ryan Gammons etc to the same thing I am saying. To a man (sorry Jackie McM.) they all have cast votes for "If A-Rod were here the curse would now have 90+ years to it....." It does have to make sense to be the truth...sometimes you DO subtract from a team by adding talent to it if it comes with baggage like this!!

That may be the silliest thing I've ever read on here. I'm sure the Patriots fans would have said they'd have been worse off with Randy Moss on their team when he was a "loser" in Oakland. Any team is better off with Gay-Rod. The only question is whether he is worth the money.
