Because, Pedro Martinez, the most-hated man in the Bronx, will still find a way to deal with the Yankees' offense, even if he really is losing his fastball.

Because Pedro Martinez sent Derek Jeter and Alfonso Soriano to the hospital last year, after hitting them both.

Because Pedro didn't even pretend to be sorry.

Because Pedro body-slammed Don Zimmer.

Because Pedro didn't say he was sorry about that, either.

LOL... He does know that both Jeter and Soriano were swinging, right? And that Clemens put one up by Millar's head just a couple days earlier.

It's funny how so many New Yorkers think that Pedro and the other Sox players are a**holes while their players juice, start fights (i.e. roger and piazza) and make almost twice as much as any other team

Yea, I remember the whole 'Redsox and their fans have no class' arguments that were being made. Man, those really pissed me off.

Just one quick comment if I can..

Benny - It is too late to save Pedro. No matter what he does or how he acts from now on people are going to hate him and he's going to be painted as the "bad guy" and as an asshole.
