RE: A-Rod Tested Positive for Steroids
The main issue for me in this whole thing is what kind of message does this send to kids who want to be professional baseball players or just athletes in general? That they can work as hard as they want but in the end they're gonna have to take drugs to make it to the big leagues? I don't think many people want to do it that way.

Oh see, that's the thing. I don't like kids. Give them drugs for all I care.

RE: A-Rod Tested Positive for Steroids
Forgive my ignorance, but do we know who leaked this news in the first place? And does anyone think the other 103 names from these "anonymous" drug tests are just as likely to be released?
Obviously the Commissioner's hands are tied and the Union isn't going to allow any of the names to be released, but what's stopping the source who leaked A-Rod's name from doing the same thing to every other player who tested positive in 2003?

Did you hear what A-Rod said today in an interview?

I actually listened to a bit of that news conference... nothing particularly earth shattering.

He wasn't too smooth, considering everything.

He did overdo the "I was young and naive and young and naive and stupid and young" part a bit, but otherwise, I thought he didn't come off too badly. Compared to the other (former) players who have had to deal with this... he looks much better.

He was 28. That's not naive territory, especially for a pro athlete.

who cares if he roided? It wasn't against the rules when he failed the test anyway... He didn't do anything against the rules, so there's nothing wrong with it.

if a player gets a DUI, should we ban them from the hall of fame?

RE: A-Rod Tested Positive for Steroids
Hey, if I was a HoF voter, I would definitely consider putting A-Rod in, particularly if he keeps performing at the level he's been at. I'd also put Clemens in, despite the extremely strong likelihood that he also used steroids/HGH, and probably more than A-Rod did. So I'm not really the one you should be asking that of

Who ever said anything about Pete Rose? Totally different situation. What he did was against the rules of baseball. What A-Rod did wasn't against the rules...
