My granddad always said that you have to give a dog its due and I am here today to give a Yank dog his due. Monday A-Rod manned up and sat down face to face with ESPN's Peter Gammons to discuss the issue at hand.
A-Fraud, the nickname given to him by those wacky club house boys and other Yanks, at least had the guts to admit that he did 'Roids while he played in Texas. But not since 2003 has he done 'roids. Do I believe him? As I look at it you have a clubhouse with at least 3 big name players juicing (and I am so sure that no one knew) and you have been juicing for the past 3 years, but now you decide to not juice. It is like an alcoholic doing rehab at a the Dew Drop Inn Saloon. But, in his defense, if A-Rod has been clean then good for him and I hope that he is not lying to us once again. I can see why A-Fraud is coming "clean". He is seeking a pass and keep himself in the Hall of Fame. A pass has been given to Giambi and Pettite as they apologized for their roid use. Well, I am not sure what Giambi apologized for specifically, but he should immediately issue and apology for the whole thong thing as well as that awful 'stache he had going. It made Jeff Kent's 'stache look good. On the other hand, others who have been linked to steriods have not even sniffed the Hall of Fame...Mark "Big Mac" McGuire..even if they had the numbers to get in.
In all this though I have to ask, where is Bud Selig? The man who has reigned over the the Roid Era that has included two players strikes, a canceled World Series, an All Star game tie, and a World Series postponed game. HMMM...just where is the man, the myth, and the legend (in his own mind) Oh wait I think I see him there in the corner of the room during the interview look closely and you can see him. If you have trouble here is a still picture taken off of the video.
