You saw A-Rod play in HS?
Yeah, he played against my brother's team down in FL. I saw him hit 4 homers in three games. SO many people at those games. Just a cool experience hearing the crowd's reaction to him coming up to bat each time. He was already A-Rod. That's why it is hard for me to dislike the guy.
Same thing with Grant Hill, Dennis Scott and Randolph Childress up here. You just can't help but like a superstar more when you got to watch them become one.
