A-rod new allegations are rediculous even with gear.
Ok i am not a fan of the guy at all but leave the guy alone, he used juice and admitted to it but who cares anyways. What i find funny is in this new book the writer claims of reports that the guy went from benching 100 lbs to 300 lbs in six months while in high school. This is such bullshit and the writer doesn't even realize how stupid she sounds. I can believe 100 to 200 lbs but 300 give me a fucking break you fool. Statements like this are funny yet the general public hearing this probably believe it.

A-Rod used in high school ? I don't think he was able to bench 300 as a rookie.

Losers attract losers.
Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Or why they spend millions and millions of dollars trying to prosecute them using tax payers dollars. Our government is in so much debt and they still continue to go have after professional athletes. It should be the least of their worries.

Bio hazard: A-Rod author has credibility issues
A-Rod biographer/hunter Selena Roberts is beginning to remind me of Rev. Al Sharpton. Sharpton separated the crime from the culture, too. When he gallivanted around New York in the '80s seeking justice for alleged victim Tawana Brawley, his target was the culture of racism more than the six white men falsely accused of rape. (Photo Illustraton / FOXSports.com) Tuesday, as I listened to Roberts defend her New York Times columns that painted the Duke lacrosse players as rapists, cowards and liars during an interview on Jim Rome's nationally syndicated radio show, I couldn't help but notice she went with the Sharp-tongue defense. "I wrote about the culture at Duke, and there's no doubt about that. I stand by that today," Roberts said. "I separated the criminal investigation from the culture." Maybe it's a New York, freedom-fighter thing, this amazing ability to ignore the innocence of the criminally accused while making your justifiable point that America suffers from and with racism and sexism. Roberts' writings/rantings on Duke lacrosse have become relevant again because she's asked us to trust her anonymous investigative reporting and speculation about Alex Rodriguez, the confessed steroid cheat and home run hitter. According to Roberts' new book and her interview blitzkrieg, Rodriguez used steroids in high school, tipped pitches to opposing batters, tipped Hooters waitresses a paltry 15 percent, was nicknamed "Bitch Tits" in the locker room and is caught up in being perfect because his father abandoned him as a child. Her sourcing for the most damaging allegations, by her own admission, is either anonymous or non-existent. She wants us to trust her, and her New York Times- and Sports Illustrated-highlighted résumé. Unlike Bob Costas, the producers at ESPN and the steroids-obsessed baseball journalists, I don't trust Roberts or her book, and I expressed some of my reasons in a Kansas City Star column that ran on Sunday. more..... |

True but it is A-rod so it is justified
