A-Rod Out 10 Weeks!!!!

[salsadancer7]

Wow. C'mon Salsa, maybe you should re-take Reading Comprehension 101:

You said:



I said:

pretty obviously I thought referring to the prior news conference where journalistic vultures picked up the story on the unnamed cousin and named him within 24 hours.

Don't you think the same thing will happen here??

NO and here is why....IF a player admits that this REALLY happened...then HE is now admitting HE CHEATED by getting the pitches....put's now in the A-Rod category. NOW, that makes him a head hunter victim to just about every pitcher in the league.

Believe me, I'm no Serena Roberts fan, or a fan of her type of journalism. I can't believe she still has a job after she botched the Dook Lacrosse story as badly as she did. But, she apparently has learned her lesson from that because at least to this point she has been right so far with everything about A-Rod*.

I guess time will tell on the new stuff...

I think she has been right on the money....but she also had names and relatively credible sources too...this time, from what I have heard...there are no names attached to those sources of giving signs....

 

[cosmo_kramer]

I find this "tipping opponents" allegation VERY weak. It's very hard for me to believe that.

OK, maybe you'll believe some "photographic evidence" then...

 

[televisionarchives]

Bad comparison, because that person that lied about his degreee....his lack of knowledge will soon come out. Sort of apples and oranges there....

The steriods STILL didn't improve his eye hand coordination and didn't improve his glove work at short....remember until he moved to short, he was THE BEST SS in the majors.

They improved his power and he used the numbers from Texas to get a contract with the Yankees.That is dishonest . And it stealing money you didn't earn. If what you say is true why didn't Arod admit to the Yankees that he used them? According to you it didn't improve his eye hand coordination and didn't improve his glove work at short. So why did Arod lie about taking them? The reason Arod is hated is before the facts came out Arod had a attitude of being a natural player.

As for tipping, ESPN talked about it and they nailed it. He only did it during blowout games and that he expected those players to reciprocate when he needed a hit and it would not affect the outcome of games. Arod is a real thug .

Now for her not having names? BIG DEAL. She's protecting the people who talked to her. That happens all the time. Arod just makes things up. Saying she tried to break into his house? That was a lie and he knows it was.


And remember , Arod yelling out during the Toronto game when he was passing the player going from second to third? It caused the player to back off because he thought it was being called off from the catch. So you don't think he would tip off the other team in a blow out huh?

IF you have someone alleging wrong doing, prove it. This thing about tipping pitches is not even he said/she said because NO ONE will admit to it....WHY, because now the OTHER PLAYERS accepting the tip are now cheating...and the next time he comes to bat....he will be nailed in the ribs. ESPN didn't nail ship because they didn't do any investigation what so ever, they just went word for word FROM THE BOOK! They didn't go out and ask players, coaches or people inside....

Again, back to PEDs...you HONESTLY think none of these owners, GMs and managers did NOT know that ALOT of these players were taking PEDs...??!! IF you don't, you are more naive and clueless than most.

Well, Arod has proven to be the only liar so far. If she lied about it in the book Arod can sue her for slander but I bet he won't . In fact, I know he won't .

So in other words...YOUR insinuating that owners, GMs and managers DIDN'T know that there were alot of players taking PEDs? And that they were ALL "kept in the dark"? And they are NOT lying that they knew this was going on?

LMAO!!!!!

This has nothing to do with it. Arod is the one with the credibility problem . Just ask any Yankee fan.

Yankee fans don't give a hoot! They want results....and that would about 40 - 130 - .300 and a World Series ring....

They want steak and not too interested in how the cow was killed....

First of all come down on the language Ok? I invite you to listen to WFAN if you think Yankee fans love Arod. They don't . I'm looking at him with open eyes and not with "fan eyes". And I do agree they want results no matter if a player cheats or not .

Who said ANYTHING about love....??!! Where in ANY posting did you find that I said the Yankee fans love A-Rod???!!! Yankee fans want results, more so than any other fan....

.....and love is such a bull**** word in sports. Fans ONLY love you if you produce....if you stink up the place, they will run you out of town. And YOU ARE looking at him with fan eyes because he admitted he took PEDs, apologized and that is all you are owned as an explination. Other than that, all he owes is 45 - 130 - .300.

MLB is going over the tapes of some of the games when Arod was with Texas to check for the tipping and they are going to investigate the other story about Arod using Steroids as a Yankee. So again, Arod lied when he said he only used Steroids as a Texas Ranger. Again, I question just about all of what Arod says.

ALSO, if you didn't know....A-Rod use to call the signs from the dugout to the catcher, which was CONFIRMED by Michael Young, oh yeah, he played next to him for a few years and it will be litterally impossible to prove because those that are accusing him will be in on the so-called conspiracy and benefitted from it.

Young doesn't believe A-Rod tipped pitches

ARLINGTON – Michael Young played just the other side of second from Alex Rodriguez, so he'd probably notice any funny business between A-Rod and opposing hitters.

And Young's take on allegations that A-Rod occasionally tipped pitches in lost causes?

"Ridiculous."

The allegations are forthcoming in a tell-all book about A-Rod by Selena Roberts.

The story: A-Rod would signal opposing hitters as to what was coming late in lost causes, in hopes that opposing hitters would reciprocate.

Roberts reportedly also comes up with allegations that A-Rod's dabbling in steroids goes all the way back to high school and continued in New York.

Believing A-Rod did 'roids in places other than Texas is not such a stretch. But tipping pitches to hitters privy to his system, who would then return the favor? A tough sell.

Still, it's tempting, because it might help explain some of the empty numbers he put up late in meaningless games.

But here's what I'd like to know: Who gave Roberts the information?

Had to be someone with Texas ties. Someone who didn't like A-Rod, either.

Plenty of the latter going around, and apparently more every day

Arod hasn't denied the tipping pitches allegation at all. And if you watched the interview on MLB Network you have no doubt about her credibility. And remember he did it when the game was a blowout. If it's true that Arod has plenty to be worried about. The video will give them some clues. And you're never going to find out who gave her the information just like you will never find out who told her that Arod was on the list of players who tested postive for steroids. This happens all the time with reports. She even said that she won't tell MLB the names because of the agreement. She also said they need to investigate it themselves .

And it might help explain some of the crappy numbers he put up in meaningful postseason games.

When you demand a salary like Arod did you get everything you deserve if you cheated in any way. It's that simple.

Just like her credibility about the Duke players...? You remember THAT one right?

Sure I remember it. The problem is that many who defend Arod use this as the reason Roberts has no credibility. Trouble is she does. She's the one who got Arod to finally admit to using them and so far I haven't seen one inaccurate thing she's reported about Arod. If you remember I was the one that said Arod used Steroids as a Yankee. And the book backs that up. You would have to be a fool to believe Arod went cold turkey when he became a Yankee. While I agree Roberts isn''t perfect , she's got it right on Arod.

Ah, you are right that she has proof of him using BEFORE the Yankees because there are names. I have seen no proof of him using with the Yankees and if you see how the rules were put in place....he would have been turned in by MLB. ESPECIALLY since his name was in the original 100 names that tested positive.
