BREAKING: MLB reduces Communist Yankees 3B/DH A-Fraud's suspension from 211 to 162.

The MLB can go fuck themselves for caving into A-Rod. 

Suspension had been 211 games, now reduced to 162. A-Rod statement says he will 'take this fight to federal court' - http://t.co/6zcrH9Nil5.

He's not the impact bat or perennial best player on any given field that he used to be...but then again non-stop, rampant PED use, and the hands of time, will do that to a person. But that he gets to play baseball when the league has piles and mountains and loads and bales and bundles and dumpsters and cabinets of evidence against him in the Biogenesis case is beyond infuriating and embarrassing, for baseball and its fans (yes, Yankees fans included). It's just stupid. "Due Process", "Right of Appeal". Please! We all know. Everybody knows. That he cheated. That he lied. That he's an assclown of epic proportions. But when we learn today that he rolled on Ryan Braun and his own teammate, Francisco Cervelli (who I'm no fan of, that home plate clapping prickface), giving MLB info on them and their PED use so as to possibly save his own chapped ass skin? Wow. We're in a brand-new stratosphere of PoS-dom. But nothing with this pan-fried penisbrain surprises me at this point. Nothing. Not that Lackey is anything short of a piehole himself, but I totally understand why he has an on-field problem with A-Rod playing. And I totally hope he plunks Dismay-Rod, leading to a Saturday afternoon A-Roid vs The Red Sox Catcher Brawl 2.0. Get ready, Salty. Should be a humdinger! Enjoy your beer at the stadium tonight, folks. That's all you'll get, because all the boos should be hurled at the field. Wonder how creative the Fenway folks will get tonight? Remmeber when A-Rod had the Canadian affair with the blonde bodybuilder, and then Sox fans wore blonde girl masks to the game? That was a hit pile of awesome. GO SOX! Winning the game would be great because it's a pennant race, and these are the rival Yanks in town, nipping at the heels of the Wild Card. But winning so that this crudstorm doesn't get the satisfaction of victory again at Fenway before finally getting suspended would be double-great.

My nerves are not as raw as others in my family, but when I hear a PED using baseball player say "I'm fighting for my life", I'd like to drag him by the ear to meet my 12 y/o nephew (with non-Hodgkins lymphoma) who actually is.

Allow me a moment: My two-cents on a Millionare

Is he that dumb? Smug? Soul-less?

Alex Rodriguez.

Gifted. Dopey. People-pleasing.

Amazing to watch at his peak. The way even a single up the middle would fly off his bat. Even though he seemed to make waves when he probably could have avoided it, cringe-inducing even, sometimes- you couldn't help but be awed by the ease with which he swung, and at the resulting connection.

Flawed. Human. Conciliatory.

After he came clean about his PED usage in his years in Texas, I thought- okay, it's an ugly mark on his past, but it is in the past- and at least he was man enough to admit his wrong-doing. Say what you will, that he had to come out with the truth with the overwhelming evidence against him- but there are other cowards out there with as much if not more against them who continue to rail against their accusers. So, no gold star- but a small pat on the back at least for seemingly stepping up and exposing his own faults.

Unbelievable. Idiotic. Head shaking.

When the news broke this a.m. about his alleged involvement with a clinic that supplied many high-profile athletes with various PEDs, and apparently as recent as the past couple years- post mea culpa- I couldn't believe it. Here we go again. I am not sure, if this winds up being substantiated, how he will ever be able to repair his image. He'll definitely lose the few fans that were still tenuously in his corner. The Yanks still owe him A LOT of money over the next five years- but I am not entirely sure how they could let him take the field again wearing the Pinstripes. Fool us once... ah, you know the rest.

So... if it be true- good riddance A-Rod the ball player. I'm done giving anyone the benefit of the doubt, who will go to such great lengths to deceive others around him. No skin off my back, really - but imagine his teammates, his employers... he's let a lot of people down.

So it is stupidity? Smugness? Lack of scruples? That's for A-Rod the man to look in the mirror and decide. A-Rod the ball player has done a fine job living up to the nickname A-Fraud that many have called him- me never included, until today.  It is a shame when people can't get out of their own way.
