Steroids and A-Rod. What a Mess....

He's the highest-paid player in the spot of baseball, and considered one of the all-time greatest players, but Alex Rodriguez is now facing scrunity for steroid use.

Rodriguez came clean about his steroid use, admitting that he used the performance enhancers from 2001-2003. Americans can rest assured that his $252 million contract over ten years was the result of performances enhanced by steroids, not strictly natural talent.

In a previous interview, Rodriguez claimed that he did not take performance enhancers because he did not think anyone in the field "could match him". Now he looks foolish on two levels; he lied to the American public and he exaggerated his natural skill level.

At least Rodriguez is an unlikeable character... I have yet to shed a tear for this over-rated prima donna. If this happened to a class act like Tiger Woods, it may be a different story, but with his inflated ego and pay salary, I can't help but think for someone like Rodriguez, this is just karma.
