I speak of Champagne and Niagara Falls



Olde Wade doesn't mean to complain here, but is this really it?

Is this the only kind of endorsement deals a first ballot hall of famer gets today. What a sad world it is where the only man to hit a home run for his 3000th hit is reduced to doing hair replacement ads (regardless if I now have the mane of Stallion).

It pains Wade to live in world where a man like A-Rod, a man who wears purple lip gloss, gets multi-million deals from Nike.

Check out these stats:

* All-star:1985-1996
* Gold Gloves:1994 and 1995
* Silver Slugger:1983, 1986-1989, 1991, 1993, 1994
* AL leader in batting average in 1983, 1985-1988
* AL leader in hits in 1985 with 240
* AL leader in doubles in 1988 and 1989
* AL leader in On-base % in 1983, 1985-1989
* AL leader in runs in 1988 and 1989

Just do that, A-Rod!

Let's get olde Wade a Nike commercial. He's earned it.
