And why does he take the brunt of this? Piazza is playing for Italy. Where's the hate for him? I'm pretty sure he was born and raised here too. As for people making their living here, well, that would be every major leaguer, so that doesn't really apply.
I'm not trying to start an arguement, I think the whole A Rod thing was a circus, but I think we don't know everything there is to know about it.

I think it's retarded he's playing for italy but in his case he's probably doing for the fact that italy doesn't have anyone else while the south american and caribbean countries have a whole lot of MLB representation. I think the whole thing is pretty stupid and I only watch one baseball team anyway so I doubt I'll be watching this.
