This A-Rod story cracks me up for some reason

Here are my favorite few lines:

Upset with developments after he opted out, Rodriguez contacted Buffett, and the investor told him to approach the Yankees without his agent, the Journal said.
After speaking with the investor, Rodriguez contacted a managing director at Goldman Sachs that he knew, John Mallory, who then got in touch with Gerald Cardinale, a Goldman Sachs managing director who has worked with the Yankees and their YES Network.
With the assistance of the two Goldman executives, Rodriguez and the Yankees negotiated a $275 million, 10-year contract that is in the process of being finalized.

A-Rod runs with quite the crowd I guess.

If the agent gets left out of that deal, it makes the story even better. Sports agents are, IMO, the slimiest of all.
