A-Rod Sues MLB . . . No Surprise.

Alex Rodriguez is suing Major League Baseball over their investigation regarding his steroid use and his involvement in the Biogenesis scandal.  He is taking the stance of "How Dare You Use Incriminating Evidence Against Me."  And this is why you suck at life, A-Rod.  Enjoy your seat on the couch during the playoffs.

Jaguars Get Destroyed By Chiefs . . . But, At Least They Looked Good

The Jacksonville Jaguars have new uniforms this season.  Apparently, the owners are trying to distract fans from realizing how crappy their team is.  The uniforms did not distract the Chiefs, though- Kansas City decimated the Jaguars in Jacksonville yesterday 28-2.  Don't worry Jags- Lots of teams put a "2" up on the final scoreboard . . . but they play baseball.

Did A-Rod Throw His Own Teammate Under The Biogenesis Bus?

A report by "60 Minutes" on the Biogenesis scandal says that A-Rod 's camp leaked the names of Ryan Braun and Francisco Cervelli, who just happens to be Alex's teammate.  A-Rod says its not true.  At this point, I wouldn't believe Alex Rodriguez if he told me that 2 + 2 = 4.  Would you?

Let Pete Rose in The MLB Hall of Fame Already!!

Pete Rose said that he should have taken up drinking, or drugs, or wife beating because if he had, he'd still be eligible for the MLB Hall of Fame.  Crass?  A bit . . . But about as true and real as it gets.  In my opinion, using PEDs like steroids and HGH is worse than gambling.  PEDs get you a 50 game suspension (longer in A-Rod's case), but Rose was banned for LIFE.  He is the all time hits leader and deserves to be in Cooperstown.  Tell us what you think . . .

During a radio interview for New York's WFAN, all-natural Angels slugger Mike Trout said that players caught using PEDs should be banned for life.  Do you agree with him?  And A-Rod, all-natural means that he doesn't inject himself with stuff.
