I was meaning to blog about this sooner, but didn't get the chance until now.
I'm so disappointed in Alex Rodriguez.
But I'm glad that he came out, showed some guts and admitted to using performance enhancing drugs. He was totally, completely wrong for what he did, but he surprised me today and admitted that he used steroids.
I think that now that he admitted his mistake, people will forgive him. It might take some time, but I think they will forgive him. He has 9 years left on his contract and I think, for better or worse, the Yankees will rally around Alex and maybe the team will be better for it.
Will he still be voted into the Hall of Fame. I really don't know. Maybe the next 9 years will change things.
I'm so disappointed. But at least he stood up and admitted he made a mistake. We all do, from time to time. And only the biggest admit that they were wrong.

Tony - How about some investigative reporting here - when did the MLB know about this? Have they and are they going to turn a blind eye to this? Should Bud be fired? Give us your thoughts...
ARod is a primadonna and a liar. He lied a year and a half ago when he was asked about PED use. There is nothing honorable about his confession, he watched Clemens, McGuire and Bonds go through hell in their denial of PED use. He said he was young and stupid...but he was 26 and 8 years deep into his career. An MLB veteran since he had been in the league since 1996.
"honorable"? Are you kidding me? The only reason he admitted to it is because he got caught. There was evidence that he did it. He had no choice but to announce that he did it. If he was honorable he would have admitted to it well over a year ago when he was directly asked by Katie Couric. Now he just looks like the complete douche he truely is.
