Default Re: A-Rod opts out of contract

I would bet this decision wasn't about money, or more accurately that money is probably the least important reason.

Pretty much spot on imo DC. I said back in the old thread that if he opts out and leaves NY, than most likely he has been planning on doing that for awhile. And the tough times he had last two seasons ago, and how he was treated probably had huge influence on him.

The fact that he didn't even seriously consider or negotiate with the Yankees, and opted out earlier than he had to also makes me think all this.
