Being a diehard Sox fan my opinion maybe biased but Arod can be the best at whatever he does but bottom line is no team will ever win a Championship with him on the team. He is an absolute chemistry killer.
Jeter may not be the best at shortstop but I would take him 1000 times out of 1000 over Arod. Jeter does whatever is necessary to win. Arod does whatever it takes to make himself look good.
I hate the Yankees with every fiber of my being but I cannot hate Jeter, he is the definition of class, he is clutch, he almost always makes the big play and there isn't a better face for a franchise than him.
Would I have been happy if the Sox signed Arod? Probably. Would we have won the Series? Not a chance in hell. Mariners better without him (not in the last two years) Rangers better without him, and the Yankees would be better without him.
