Mark Teixeria signs with Skanks.
Eight years $180 mil. What a bargain for a Bora$$ client. Now let the media and fans rip his greedy hide off. And we'll watch the Angels own the new stadium like we owned the old one.
75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS; 75WORDS;
When will the horror end. The Skankees now own all of MLB. Pay off the deficit.

what I think is funny
Is how often his wife is brought up when it comes to his decision making (she was even at this press conference). Between her and Boras, do you think Mark even had a say in where he was going to play?
wa-pssshhh!

whooped..
It was probably Mark’s wife dealing with Borass the whole time

Wow. He doesn't sign with us so he gets bashed? Funny.
He was a professional while he was here. He played his ass off. I see nothing wrong with him.
This is the worst offseason in years. But hey we got Colorado's closer!

Doesn't matter
I see nothing wrong with having a little fun at his expense. It isn’t like us fans can do anything about Tex going to the Yankees.
If it was probably someone we didn’t like, there would probably be more threads bashing the particular player and no one would be saying anything about it.
Take heart, most fans will take the conservative rout and Teixeira will likely be cheered in his first at-bat in Anaheim.

This should be saved as the next "WIn" picture when the Angels beat the Yankees.

Uh, the opening is in the back of the U-Haul!
Seems that this renter had the right idea for how to more quickly pack up their U-Haul, but just drove in the wrong direction.

according to u-haul it was only after his wife saying “i want you to be a yankee” that he made his decision.

“I’d been asking her for weeks and weeks, Where do you want to go? Where do you want me to play?” he related. "And she said, ‘I want you to be happy. I just want you to be happy.’ And finally, she said, ‘I want you to be a Yankee.’ So that’s when it was done. And once we got the contract figured out, it was a no-brainer.

ON XM today
….heard him actually say that he wanted to be part of an organization that was willing to show they had the desire to win by spending money on quality players, or something to that effect.
That was when I changed the channel. Thanks for a few good months, now GIRUY.

she probably wanted out of Orange County so a Cougar/trust fund baby wouldn’t take him away…

what a goober. he looks 12 years old in this picture
and his wife looks like a 4 year/32 million type wife. Definitely not 8/180. Maybe A-Rod will set him straight at one of his celebrity cougar bars
by ihearhowie2.0 on Jan 6, 2009 10:41 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Perhaps Madonna
will hook Tex up with Paula Abdul, or Janet Jackson. A-Rod went for the old bag… maybe Tex would too. But hey, A-Rod’s wife wasn’t exactly good lookign either. Nothing special.

Looks like a typical UGA girl
Me Tex went to Ga Tech so, you know, it all makes sense.

Yeah it sucks that Teix signed with the yankees and not the Halos......
but I hold no ill will towards him….infact Im grateful for his play that helped clinched the AL West…..and his good play in the ALDS….I wish him success (no need to wish him fortune cuz he has it) but I hope he fails against the Halos……..lol

"I want you to be a Yankee, Mark..."
“Because, while $160 million is a lot of scratch, $180 million is just like… more. And the endorsement deal jack that goes along with playing for the Yanks is like, well, a lot more than the entire Angels team endorsements combined, including that coach pimping Howard’s TV’s. That’s a lot of bling, That’s a lot plastic surgery. That’s a lot of Hampton’s pool boys.”

Then didn’t like the Angels so he left for the East Coast. You know, what’s his name.

My feeling is that
Mr. and Mrs. Mark Texiera are a little too Apple Pie for The Big Apple. Sure, it’s all good as a tourist and everything, but wait until New Yorkers realize that they got another Paul O’Neill, at the cost of a shot at Ryan Howard.

Paul O'Neill?
Wasn’t he one of the all-time Yankee fan favorites?

Yeah, he should have said “but wait until New Yorkers realize that they got another Alex Rodriguez” (all salary earned in the regular season and no clutch playoff performances).
