-with regarding ozzie he is a disgrace for always opening his mouth and sounding like a uneducated idiot. He has no right to bash the best player in baseball when he was barely a average player who never intimidated a pitcher in his life. Arod has the right to take as long as it takes to decide on what he was going to do regarding the WBC. I also feel passion for my heritage and can relate to Arod taking his time on a very important issue. Just because you were'nt born in the country your heritage decended from doesn't mean you should forget who you are and where you came from. Arod's last name is a direct connection to his heritage and always will be. If Ozzie really feels that Arod isn't Dominican, I guess Arod should change his last name and his parents and grandparent. If Ozzie agrees with his oringinal statement then he should jump on a raft and get out of this great country. Ozzie should focus on learning better english and the history of this country that has been so generous to him before knocking any YANKEE. I have no respect for idiot ozzie and i look forward to the yankees beating on them this year. get some class idiot ozzie-
