The Red Sox say that the trade which would send Alex Rodriguez to Boston is off. The players' union rejected the deal because they say that contracts cannot be reworked unless it benefits the player. I guess if he takes a pay cut to go to a team with a chance of winning a World Series that does not benefit him.
Now if he would have negotiated a deal like Kirk Jones, the Niagara Falls jumper, he would have had no trouble with the union. Jones's contract "stipulates he is entitled to an unlimited supply of shaved-ice snow cones." A-rod needs an agent that could get a sweet deal like that for him.
