So, A-Roid gets a 211 game ban from MLB

They should ban this self-serving, lying, arrogant douchcanoe for life. Alex Rodriguez, Ryan Braun, all of 'em. Don't care who they play for or how many RBI's they have. Broom the bunch.

Maybe a guy you'd never associate with baseball said it best in the dying moments of the Sex Pistols at the Winterland in San Francisco. Baseball fans FF this video to the :30 second mark and you'll immediately get the sentiment.


That is all. Carry on.

Anyone surprised at A-Rod showing up again in a list of drug cheats?

Or Ryan Braun in Milwaukee or ANY of the other cheats about to be named and suspended by Major League Baseball? We've known since Barry Bonds allegedly went from a 7 1/4 hat size to an 8 in one offseason. We've known since Sammy Sosa suddenly forgot how to speak English before Congress. We've known since Rafael Palmeiro lied to Congress. Mark McGwire admitted to it. There are no surprises anymore as so many have been caught juicing or offering up such ridiculous defenses you just know. Like Amanda Bynes swearing up and down she doesn't smoke the reefer.

Which makes ole' A-Rod sound like an even bigger fool when after being named by Sport Illustrated in 2009 said famously:

"The only thing I ask from this group today and the American people, is to judge me from this day forward. That’s all I can ask for."

OK, here we go. In the words of Robert Shaw in The Sting "Not only are you a cheat, you're a gutless cheat as well." How long did you wait after saying those words did you head back to Dr. Feelgood in Miami? Well Dr. Feelgood took copious notes and he's ready to spill on you and your "not Tic-Tacs". You made millions by cheating to get an advantage on other players. How proud you must be. Johnny cares not who else did it, he'd broom their sorry cheating asses too. Hopefully your time in New York and anywhere else is done. The Yankees will probably never get their "investment" in you back ever even if they sue for the unused portion of your contract.

Thus far Bud Selig has been an absolute failure as a commissioner. He now stands on the precipice of where baseball goes from here. Are there long suspensions and some even 100 game suspensions (we'd hope without pay) coming for some big names? Or will the bigger punishments come against the smaller names like Mets minor leaguer Cesar Puello or the Yankees Francisco Cervelli who also may be suspended in all this. Which is it Bud? If it were up to Johnny he'd channel his inner Kenesaw Mountain Landis and broom them all for good. Probably a big reason he's not in charge.

Oh no, Alex Rodriguez to have surgery

The bleating NY/NJ media are at it again, worried about ole A-Roid having surgery. First it was steroids they were panicked about, then should he have surgery or shouldn't he, oh my god it's just terrible it could really affect the Yankees chances and the club said he was fine and could play through it and only need surgery at the end of the year but his agent said it might be important to get it done now and then the media asked if he would need it and again the club said no but his agent said was and now oh dear he'll be out 6-9 weeks and STOP IT, enough!

Here's your A-Roid news:

See if you can't follow the logic here...

Unless you've been living under the Brooklyn Bridge, you know Yankees star Alex Rodriguez took steroids for many years which according to him were procured for him by his cousin Yuri Sucart. Sucart never took the illegal steroids, he merely got them for A-Roid. A-Roid was the one who took them. So, if you're the Yankees what do you do? Ban Sucart from all team facilities. According to New York Yankees human checkbook Brian Cashman, "That's been taken care of, It's been handled."

God forbid you'd punish the guy who ingested illegal steroids. Oh, wait, silly us, he's the one who will hit 40 home runs this year. What were we thinking, he should be GLORIFIED.
