Because none of these players are angels.

The Red Sox fans who don't want Arod are just as idiotic, if not more so [when not factoring in the salary concern].

You know what? I've got great character. I'm honest, I don't steal, I don't cheat. I've never cheated on a girl [and yes, hold that thought, I've been with girls, emphasizing plural]. I give to charity, I hold the door open for ladies and older folks.

So what if I can't hit a 95 MPH fastball with regularity? I'm a good person with an average glove and arm at third. I may hit .069 in the major leagues, but you won't hear a complaint from anyone in the clubhouse about me. Plus, I'll take less than minimum wage, I won't sign up with the player's union, and won't hire an agent.

Would you rather have me or Arod at third?
