OT: AROD gets 162 game ban

[oldjudge]

Could have been 162 years for all I care. What a jerk!

[Brian Van Horn]

I think Robin Williams put in best in "Good Morning Vietnam" when he said,

"This will not look good on the resume!"

[calvindog]

Every step of the way, ARod and his band of idiots blew it. As an attorney it was painful to watch the heavy-handed missteps.

[Fred]

He should have taken a lesson from Jeter on how to be a class act. I suppose there's not much chance he could have changed because it's just in his nature to be such a putz.

+1, big, big time....

It's bad for baseball to not ban him for life. How many chances does he expect to get?

Pete Rose bet on a few games and gets a lifetime ban. A Rod gets caught multiple times only to receive a few slaps on the wrist.

I'll never understand the decisions MLB makes. Simply baffling.

One or a thousand...can't do that.

I don't find Pete Rose's lifetime ban puzzling at all.
Evidently he didn't either. Didn't he sign the agreement?

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.
