We really need to settle down at this point, and everything will be fine. And then I found this... Thing is everyone... he's delivering... that is a sick ABP against great teams... what more can you ask for??? I can't think of anything.

I agree with your conclusion but I'm curious about your formula for ABP. Have you posted it before?

"All he had to do was throw it on target, the guy would have been out by twenty feet," - Mike Mussina on ARod's error on Thursday Night

That can't sit well with ARod. No wonder why its rumored that not many guys like Mussina.

Maybe that's why Mussina is the only guy on the Yankees with a personal 24/7 bodygaurd.

Mussina is absolutely right though.

Yessir, All-Base Percentage... I posted it here: 10 Best Hitters through All-Star Break

but the formula is in my Signature.

Most people are right when they make a comment like this to the media, but you're still not supposed to do it. Was Peyton Manning wrong when he said that the Colts had some "protection problems" in the game against the Steelers?

No, and I don't see anything wrong with either of them saying it.

Then apparently you don't understand what it means to be a part of a team. If you read the rest of the interview with Mussina where he made that quote, you'll see that he basically blames ARod for the loss. You win as a team, and you lose as a team, one person isn't supposed to have the blame thrown on his shoulders by another team member (especially one who is probably more deserving since he couldn't pick-up his teammate with his pitching).
