When has ARod been caught "multiple times"? At worst, this was his first official offense - the admission on TV doesn't count - and it apparently didn't involve a failed test.

So what were the multiple times?

Hmmm. Good point. Kinda.

He admits using, but nobody "caught" him. He and all others hide behind the
Players Union. Drug tests "fail" to catch him, and many others. And now a person claims to have injected A-Fraud. A-fraud is also alleged to be purchasing documents, from this same guy(or company, can't seem to keep all this straight). The commish says A-Fraud is interfering... He gets 162 games.

I am sure a much better informed individual could string this together better than I am doing.

If he were to say he did not have sex with that woman, I would know he screwed her every which way from Sunday.

This guy, to me, messed with the game more than Pete Rose ever did. No comparison.

But what do I know, other than A-Fraud is a liar.

your right he was only "caught this 1 time" and there have been many others who were caught more and received less and many more than that who were never caught.

No one knows the evidence from the arbitration; however, ARod didn't release the written decision for a reason--because it buries him. Major obstruction of the MLB probe and great efforts to circumvent the drug testing policy. And the evidence was irrefutable that he used PEDs.

Absolutely!

Poor A Rod, he's getting such a raw deal.

Keep in mind when trashing ARod for obstruction that MLB did the exact same thing - only they obstructed a federal criminal investigation and not just an investigation of an employee.

Which federal criminal investigation was that? I must have missed that.

I was just watching the 60 Minutes segment on this matter. All I can say is there are unsavory characters on each side of this matter.

I watched it too. All I can say is WOW!!! Death threats? Justifying giving A-Fraud PEDS as doing nothing wrong under the belief that other players are juicying and if you're going to juice, you need to do it right? Both surround themselves with convicted criminals? Offering to pay and hide Bosch in Colombia to obstruct justice? The volumes of text messages is very damaging and indefensible. What a pair of sociopaths. They deserved each other and both should be in jail.
