AROIDbum

The biggest slimeball in sports, Alex Rodriguez refuses to be a man and accept the consequences of his banning. In his lawsuit, he details his use of performance enhancing drugs. He also describes some of the treatment he received from the Biogensis lab.

(CNN) — Baseball superstar Alex Rodriguez isn’t going down without a fight. But in the process, the slugger may have let out a dirty little secret.

Tucked deep in the lawsuit Rodriguez filed Monday against Major League Baseball to get his suspension vacated is an exhaustive report about his alleged steroid use. And boy, is it detailed.

The report alleges injections of banned drugs, secret meetings and big money payments. Part of the 34-page document details Rodriguez’s alleged cocktail of banned substances to the milligram.

Some of these accusations have leaked out in recent days as Rodriguez’s fight with baseball has gotten uglier and uglier.

[….]

So Rodriguez sued league Commissioner Bud Selig and even his own union, the Major League Baseball Players Association.

In the lawsuit, Rodriguez’s lawyers say the actions against the slugger have been a “carefully orchestrated smear campaign” and the suspension should be vacated.

The lawsuit also alleges that the baseball union did not protect Rodriguez from continual leaks of “prejudicial information” from baseball officials.

A-Roid is a bum who deserves all the ridicule he gets.

Fenway Fans cheer as A-Rod is hit with a pitch

Despite the decades long rivalry between the NY Yankees and the Boston Redsox, the fans of either team never cheer when a player of the opposing team gets hit. Alex Rodsriguez is in a category all by himself as he is the most hated man in baseball. Even Yankee fans like myself despise this fraudster and sad excuse of a man. During a Yankee-Redsox game Sunday, A-Rod was hit by a pitch and the crowd rightfully cheer. Sadly, A-Rod got the last laugh by hitting a home run later in the game.

BOSTON — In the second inning, Boston Red Sox starter Ryan Dempster drilled New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez with 3-0, 92 mph fastball. In the sixth, Rodriguez drilled Dempster for a long solo homer that sparked the Yankees’ comeback victory.

“It was the ultimate payback,” Rodriguez said after the team’s 9-6 win.

When Dempster plunked Rodriguez in the elbow with a fastball, it resulted in both benches being issued warnings, the ejection of Yankees manager Joe Girardi and the bullpens of both teams emptying onto the field. No punches were thrown.

With the Fenway crowd chanting “You’re a cheater” to start the second inning, Dempster’s first pitch to Rodriguez, an 89 mph fastball, sailed behind him, nearly catching him on the left leg.

After two more inside fastballs, Dempster’s 3-0 pitch nailed Rodriguez squarely on the left elbow pad. Rodriguez interpreted it as Dempster’s way of saying he did not like how Rodriguez has handled the 211-game suspension for performance-enhancing drug violations that Rodriguez is appealing.

“Whether you like me or hate, that was wrong,” said Rodriguez, who finished the night with three hits and raised his average to .319 in 47 at-bats. “That was unprofessional and silly. It was kind of a silly way to get someone hurt on your team as well.”

A-Fraud, everyone even your own team mates hate you and the Genral Manager of the Yankess Brian Cashman does not feel confortable speaking with you.

Prior to the game, A-Rod’s boss, Yankees general manager, Brian Cashman spoke to the media about the A-Rod situation.

Cashman said when he does speak to A-Rod, it is very brief and doesn’t have much to say to him.

“I’m not comfortable talking to Alex on this stuff, because I feel we’re in a litigious environment, so I am not comfortable anymore talking to him.”

“Hello, goodbye, and that’s it. Because anything else, I don’t want to be distorted, to be quite honest,” Cashman said.

Cashman said he is very frustrated by the whole situation, because A-Rod is not just going after management, “he’s putting it at the level of our trainers, our medical staff. The organization. The team.”

Alex Rodriguez is a disgrace to baseball and humanity.

Alex Rodriguez to sue MLB for ban

Juice head Alex Rodriguez continues to dig his hole deeper with baseball fans. Rather than man up and admit he used performance enhancing drugs and accept his penalty from MLB, he doubles down on his arrogance. A-Roid is threatening to sue MLB if they do not rescind his suspension

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Alex Rodriguez plans to sue Major League Baseball in federal court next month if his suspension related to the league’s latest performance-enhancing drugs scandal isn’t lifted, according to TMZ.com.

The Yankees third baseman is currently appealing a 211-game suspension for his alleged ties to Biogenesis, the closed Florida anti-aging clinic accused of distributing PEDs. Twelve other players will serve 50-game bans. Milwaukee Brewers star Ryan Braun previously accepted a 65-game suspension.

TMZ’s sources called the investigation of A-Rod “abusive and borderline illegal” and said the league has “no proof” that he allegedly obstructed the Biogenesis probe.

 A-Roid is not phased by the boos he receives from Yankee fans. He is an ego maniac bringing shame to a historic franchise like the Yankees and the sport of baseball. He is a low life scum and disgrace to humanity.

A-Rod cut from Yankees cartoon

Not only does A-Rod get booed at Yankee Stadium, he is also being cut out of a cartoon about the Yankees called Henry and Me.

The Yankees can’t sever Alex Rodriguez’s contract, but his role as the team’s hero in an animated film is heading for the cutting room floor.

Rodriguez, who did his own voice work while appearing in the upcoming animated film “Henry & Me,” will be removed from the film’s final version due to fears from investors that the Yankees third baseman, who is currently appealing a 211-game suspension for his alleged use of performance-enhancing drugs, will hurt the marketability and profitability of the picture.

Though the producers and Yankees ownership gave their full support to the film — and in Hank Steinbrenner’s case, voiced the role of his father — and can offer their opinions about whether Rodriguez should be included in the final version, the ultimate decision falls upon a group of eight or nine investors, who despite being fans of Rodriguez, believe that the controversy surrounding him will detract from the family-oriented film centered around perseverance and belief.

“We have investors that we have to answer to, just like the Yankees,” said executive producer Ray Negron, a longtime Yankees adviser, whose children’s books served as the inspiration for the film. “If ownership decides that this is a direction that we have to go, meaning our investors, we have to listen to ownership. That’s just the way it is. It works just like a team. It’s the same thing.”

Could not happen to a bigger scumbag.
