Poor A-Rod. He just never knows what to do. He never knows the right answer.
4 years ago he got killed for saying he would play for the Dominican Republican in the unnecessary silly "World Baseball Classic" (aka Thing That Makes Your Team Underprepared Coming Out Of Spring Training), then he decided to play for the United States because that was cooler.
Now four years later he will play for the DR.
Well A-Rod, which is it. Do you represent the USA or the DR. The answer isn't both. Neither answer is wrong. Just pick one and go with it,
Here's what A-Rod said in 2005 (from the Seattle Times):
"In recent weeks, following dialogue with caring friends and players, both Dominican and American, I reached the conclusion that if I played in the Classic, I would play for the United States and honor my American citizenship," former Mariners shortstop Rodriguez said in a statement on his Web site.
"I appreciate the support and understanding of my fellow Dominican players and friends who aided me in making this decision. The World Baseball Classic offers baseball and its fans an exciting new forum and I look forward, if selected, to representing the United States in what will be baseball's greatest international competition."
Why the change now Alex? Pick something and stick with it - like being a Texas Ranger for example.
