That's the attitude I like. What have you done for me lately? For All Athletes: Ride out into the sunset or get used to critics. Prefered choice of huge fans that will remember you for the rest of your life: Ride out into the sunset. See John Elway.
It doesn't make much to me for him to wait until May to come back unless it's because he's coming back to play for the Astros. I honestly don't believe he's going anywhere else or retiring.
I was at the game at Ameriquest... the crowd really didn't seem too overly "cheery..." Perhaps it was because as the announcer was flowering him up, I stood and tipped my Astros hat to the crowd around me... and some started chanting "let's go Astros" before the announcer finished. Sure, Rocket was cheered, but I think most people up here sincerely doubt the Rangers' ability to woo him here... They've all seen the ownership and GM botch these deals before... Besides, the offense was non-existent up here too... and he left in the 4th or 5th inning to be back in Houston for the Astros home opener... Roger got to see the BoSox rip the Rangers -with a DH- "Thanks for the free plane ride Tom Hicks." <----probably about the depth of the "talks." I doubt he'll do any playing unless it's at MMP, or in the playoffs in a pinstriped uni with a star on the hat.
