So who does care?? &amp;nbsp;His wife, whom he sweared a comittment to, and his kids, that will follow dad's behavior. When you have only yourself to answer for, do what you like, but when you have others counting on you and learning from you, you MUST conform to a different behavior. Whether the fans know or not, God knows - and that's really important.

That's just completely wrong. This is only his third full season in the bigs which means is he eligible for salary arbitration next year not free agency. That is a HUGE difference and a monumental oversight on your part. If Prince were gone at the end of the season trading LaPorta would have been asinine. Please either check your facts or get a fact-checker. Otherwise your wasting our time.</description></item><item><title>A-Rod's been naughty ... so what?</title><link>http://openmike.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/07/01/1179220.aspx#1187285</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Jul 2008 17:46:54 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1187285</guid><dc:creator>Jeff, Parsippany, NJ</dc:creator><description>You're absolutely right on this one - what they do off the field is private and it is their lives.
