In this particular case, however, the controversy was politicized by the baseball player, not the participants of the board. So I feel that while politicizing every topic on the board certainly is inappropriate, in this case how could one not? It is an integral part of the story.
And for my two cents, I'm not at all surprised by this recent development. Who could be? I long had my A-Rod suspicions as well before he came clean. And is Clemens' legal actions, and the actions of the Republicans who supported him, disgraceful? In my estimation, yes, as he was clearly welcomed into the good ole boy network.
Clemens' behavior and obvious drug use warrant no such special treatment.
