CHEMOTHERAPY FOR THE CANCER AT SS:
Chemistry lesson from Strawberry (Providence Journal, December 20, 2006)
Darryl Strawberry thinks the Yankees' clubhouse is beset by bad chemistry that can be cured only one way: Derek Jeter needs to "embrace" Alex Rodriguez.Posted by Orrin Judd at December 20, 2006 8:21 AM"They've got to come together," Strawberry said yesterday. "It's time for them to mend their relationship and get back to, like, OK, let's have some fun. We're here in New York together. We're on the greatest team that we possibly could play on. Let's try to win instead of going separate ways. Because I remember them when they were young and they went to dinner together and they did everything together."
Soooo . . .
Strawberry's your rabbi on this one?
It might as well be a rule in life that if Darryl does one thing, one does the opposite.
