I do somewhat agree. His postseason has been atrocious, only with the Yanks, he was fine with Seattle. And his '09 practically won them the whole darn thing lol.

True on roid use, I don't necessarily care he used it, what saddened me was he was already a HOF player and one of the best ever before he used in '07, I was saddened by the 'why' factor, because he was supposed to be baseball's savior to overshadow Bonds.

And his attitude is bad, but he has been good these past few years, and (from a public perspective, I don't know what behind the scenes looked like) A-Rod took his benching like a class act in the playoffs and really won me over.

I always will and have been a huge A-Rod fan.

I don't recall the details now but his obnoxious demands when he was negotiating with the mets and yankees and his dissing of jeter said all you need to know about him. I admit he has faked some class of late but I don't think it is genuine, the way Jeter's is.
