Two losers?

I sure hope you don't mean Andy Pettite?

Him going to the Astros for LESS money than the Yankees offered him made him, in my eyes anyways, among the RAREST of athletes today - one not motivated solely by his wallet.

Admirable.

Perhaps you meant someone else?

Don't waste your breath arguing with guys like that. Some people will never understand that there is something more important than money. New Yorkers would never understand why Andy signed for less money so that he can play at home. Same reason they'll never understand why Clemens is coming back to pitch for his hometown team. Before either boys were Yankees or Red Sox or whatnot, they were Houstonians and Texans, enough said.
