Man, this just bites in every conceivable way.

Talk about rueing the day

i would love to learn the whole story as accurately as possible.
the accusation that arod "recruited" patients is bizarre as hell.

[3] It's A Rod. Nothing could surprise me at this point.

[3] Not only about him, but all. The Ryan Braun deal irks me, still. What did he do? What did he admit? His I'm sorry sticks in my craw. And, as for bizarre, I stand with [4].

Not happy to see Sorry,Sorry back either. Gave up another arm that will come back to whip them.

At this point, can I just hope for a meteorite to strike the conference room the next time Arod and Seligula get together?

I'd like to see this whole mess go to federal court and have the entire history of PEDs come out, especially with who knew what and when. Too much Captain Louis Renaults here.

Oh, and does anyone think Biogenesis is a one-off thing?

I just want this to be over at this point, and I don't even have the energy to get all up in arms about Selig abusing his power. A-Rod made his bed, at some point you gotta wash your hands of it.

A Rod is shameless. If he can't just cop to his wrongdoing -- I mean, I usually don't like to prejudge people, but come ON -- I hope Selig does hit him with the largest hammer possible. I would consider that a GOOD USE of his power, not abuse.

ARod would have gotten away with it had he not been caught digging all those shallow graves. It's not so much the mass murder that Bud disapproves of, it's the cover up.

Least favorite Yankee ever.

You got me. I actually do dislike Pavano more. But the gap is closing!

[10] Scooby-doobie-dooooo!

I was never a fan, but even I am surprised that it has come to this with Alex, not the threat of a long and/or lifetime ban, but that the Yankees (and so many of the fans) are so ready to wash their hands of him. I thought that everyone would be rallying around him when his day of reckoning finally came. Look at Bonds. He was scapegoated and selectively prosecuted by the federal authorities, but the Giants and their fans stayed loyal to him, even to this day. Goes to show that the worm really does turn.
