This is ridiculous.

These pussy baseball writers crying because their old childhood idols' records are getting broken. The guy roided up. He didnt sell secrets to North Korea.

"That's not for me to determine".

Yes it is. Take some responsibility.

He wishes he would have went to college?? How many pro players don't go to college these days? Lame excuse, IMO

More throwing his cousin under the bus....including transporting the steroids into the US.

But, he "would rather not name his cousin". Laughable.

He's not blaming his cousin. He's telling the story how he got hold of the stuff. Would you rather him just say "I got some roids and used them"? Are you not listening? A-rod has said "my mistake" "I was young and stupid" multiple times.

i do not have access, but Good God! If true, he is just making matters worse. I hope all of this blows up in his face.

He's really blowing this. He has the perfect opportunity to be the poster player for doing everything anti-steroids from this point on in order to cement his place as a HOFer and get this behind him.

Instead, he's doing exactly what some lawyer is telling him to say. Very sad. But the guy's a prick anyway and that fake frickin tear was a joke.

Okay, since when is being in your mid 20's an excuse for not making the right decision? If you throw rocks or something at someone's house at 12, you may be able to pull off the young angle. If you smoke pot at 16, you may be able to pull off the young angle. If you're a 25 year old man, you can't pull off the young or naive angle when it comes to injecting yourself with shite. I personally don't care if he used or didn't, but that's just fricking stupid.
