Thanks. What exactly does acting like an ****** entail? Not accepting consequences or denying allegations altogether or what? Guess I didn't realize that would be a suspendable offense.

I believe just for the way he handled the appeal in 2012, making disparaging remarks about the sample collector and MLB's testing program in general when he was in fact, guilty as all heck

As an A ROD fan, I would like to see him just hang it up and take the licks like a champ. He has nothing else more to prove...I mean, I'm sure we can all agree A Rod was a beast....but the beast is aging and wearing down and can't do it like a youngster no more


Looking for Alex Rodriguez Cards, let me know!

MLB said they were going after the lying during the 2011 test as an offense and this would have been a second. So basically it seems as they used that 100 game fear to leverage a deal.

Arod probably deserves a lifetime ban but if palmeiro didn't get one I just can't see arod..

Anything over a100 games is too much. I would be shocked if he got more then that

Unless Arod was a distributor I don't see how they can give him life.

Second time offender
Lying
Obstruction of investigation


....as a Yankees fan, please let this all be true so that we can get rid of this hinderance and distraction.

I probably missed something on the Braun story, but can someone explain how it is that he gets a 65 game suspension? I mean what happened to the actual policy of 50/100/lifetime for your first three offenses? Why is it just until the end of the season?
If he would have went to MLB lets say in 3 days from now, it would be a 61 game suspension. No bearing it was just for the rest of the year.

Reportedly AROD tried to buy documents from Tony Bosch that incriminated him and others. Thus he tried to hamper MLBs investigation.


I think the ban hammer is coming.

not a arod fan but he,s been the whipping boy ever since he was outed, from a list that had a 100 others on it.. he should get what he deserves but no more.

The last few years have just been sad, I sold every Arod card I had when he first got caught. Ya I took a hit, but lost all my respect for him. Now this.. Honestly collecting sluggers is a waste of time now a days. Especially a guy like arod as mentioned earlier his 1994 sp foil was such a fun card to chase after.

These PED scandals really affect all cards - - or rather they really should affect all cards.

Any rational person would look at the history of ARod cards and wonder if any modern card is worth dropping big bucks on.

So he gets a lifetime ban, do the Yankees extend his contract for another five years?

A-Rod=Pete Rose

Meaning he could be one of the greats to have a lifetime ban.

Before someone says there not equal I'm not comparing stats just IF he gets the lifetime ban.

They are both ********** but there is someone heroic people still see in Rose [the way he played with arrogance, skill, hustle, THE WILL TO WIN] while A-Roid is seen as just a big ***** [or centaur].
