    Well I finally had some time to find out what this guy is all about. I started to do some research and came across this article:

    Scott Boras Demands $35 Million To Rescue Drowning Child

    http://thebrushback.com/Archives/scottboras_full.htm

    It's a couple of years old so you guys might have heard about it, but its new to me and I'm appalled.

    In current Boras news, he's up to his old tricks, with the Red Sox playing the willing suckers this time:

    "We're on Scott Boras's doorstep because he hasn't negotiated with us so far," Henry said, frustration registering in his voice during a post-midnight conference call with reporters. "We're taking the fight directly to him to try to have a negotiation here."

    Epstein said that he and Lucchino intend to present a new offer to Boras today, even though the club never received a counter offer to its original proposal.

    I'll also add; here's Boras, discussing the Matsuzaka posting last month:

    "I'm going to first assume that this whole process is done in good faith."
