the return of Felipe Baloy

By: j | July 16th, 2008

Felipe Baloy returned to the Rayados, apologized to his teammates and noted his rationale of needing to take care of his families well being. After discussions with Ricardo Lavolpe and upper-management, he rejoined his teammates and was received well with understanding. While I disagreed with his walking out, obviously there were other pressures beyond the scope of the public eye that caused this and its a great statement that reconsidered his position and was honest about it. In an era when athletes seem to think they are above issues that you and I feel in our day-to-day lives, I respect Felipe for his honesty and am glad to see him back. I doubt any negative feelings will linger and if anything it might help galvanize this team as a family.

Now please Felipe, the man-purse.

    I guess it’s alright he was honest about being an ass, although he’s still an ass. He had just recently gotten an advanced, but he wanted more. I would’ve sold him!
