It is official I have had enough of the A-Rod/Steroids story. After the 20 mins of coverage on ESPN Sportscenter of the story I have decided that I just don’t care anymore what A-Rod did because everyone involved on this story (A-Rod, The Media, The lady who wrote the book) have made me frustrated as a Baseball fan. Forget being a Yankee fan, as a baseball fan this is getting out of control.
Do I feel bad for A-Rod? Kind of because he will have to deal with this for the rest of his life, but in the same token this is the price you pay for doing something so stupid.
Do I like the author of this book? NO. And now because of all this stupid coverage your getting I will not buy your book, I will buy Darryl Strawberry’s. Everything I need to know about A-Rod has been out in the media anyway now. What’s gonna be different in your book versus anything else the media has said? NOTHING. Unless they got a good story of A-Rod’s love of Hannah Montana dolls…I won’t read it.
You did steroids…we get it.
People are going to call you A-Fraud…we get it.
In about two years if you keep yourself out of the media (which I doubt he will) we will all forget anyway. Just ask Kobe Bryant, Mike Tyson, Ricky Williams and even Michael Jordan (remember his gambling addiction?).
Everyone in America has some form of ADD and the media is the biggest offenders of that. Someone else will come along in another sport to cause a lot of coverage and A-Rod will ride off into the sunset…until he does something stupid again.
Dear Sports Media-
I don’t care anymore about the A-Rod story. Your getting just as annoying as the swine flu stories.
Please stop. I just want to watch highlights.
