A-Rod, why he is hated!

It is funny, A-Rod had 189 in SEA, 156 in Texas and 309 in NY, that's 6 yrs in SEA, 3 yrs in TEX and 10 yrs with NY...for an avg. of 41 per year.

There is a lot of money out there to be had if anyone can show A-Rod used before Texas...!

In Texas he hit an avg. of 52 HRs per year but, as everyone knows PEDs don't make you hit the ball...just hit it longer. The HRs in Texas may have been hit with or without the PEDs..everyone going to Texas knows the HR rate goes up because of many factors...check the stats!

Between the age of 25-33 a power hitter reaches his prime, just about the time he hit Texas and NY, so he would have hit more in Texas even without the PEDs.

Also, one must remember...PEDs were not on the band list until after he said he quit using in Texas.

A writer wrote A-Rod should have an * after his Grand Slam of the other night because he was using a band substance. Oh, really, are you out of your mine in your hate of a ballplayer you would think he is using now or even this year? Same for those that say he has been using as far back as high school. "Hate, will not set you free young man", get a brain and use it!

My dislike of him is simple...God gave him a great talent for baseball and he MAY have misused it, this is unforgivable, unconscionable and unacceptable in my book.

My respect for his God given Talent is with out a doubt one of the reasons I hope he is not guilty this time. He is one of the 10 best players I have seen in over 65 years.

Bottom line...A-Rod is not the guy he is made out to be...he may not be as PC as he should be but, is that a sin?

IF this last bit of trouble he is in is found to be true...I will be first in line to damn him but until then...He IS A Yankee and as such, he is to have the respect of all Yankee Fans.
