A-Roid, A-Fraud, A-Juice, J-Rod...

Well, I have to be honest here... I'm not at all excited to here the news about A-Rod juicing up. So, here's a list of the Rangers "All-Juice" team. Pudge and Juan have only been here say, so it's not official with both of them. Still, there is a bit of tarnish with allegations and you can't help but wonder if there is a bit of truth to it all.

Did he do it? Well, according to one report, he admitted doing it.

I told my wife that this is another blemish on baseball. And right now, baseball is a pimple covered teenager, so really, what's with another blemish.

I think that with steroid use comes a form of shame. It's making the players say that they weren't good enough on their own to do what needed to be done, so they turned to steroids to help accomplish something they believe they cannot do on their own.

And that is probably why, that when there was an age when steroid use was acceptable (or at least not against the rules), they still cannot confess their use.

Alex Rodriguez used steroids when it wasn't against the rules. He also didn't come "clean" about his use, as so many players before him have made that same very mistake. To be honest, I am a little disappointed about his use, but I am more disappointed about him lying to try to save face.
