Did Alex Rodríguez use steroids? If anyone has been tuning in to the news lately, he knows the answer to this question… yes, since 2001-2003. “A-Roid” has been the new trendy nickname that recently tied him up in this HOT baseball debate.

Did A-Rod NOT know what his cousin was injecting into his body repeatedly over a three year period? You don’t travel to the Dominican Republic to get an over-the-counter “drug” that you’re told will give you more energy when you normally wouldn’t touch a Snickers candy bar on a 10-foot pole.

Today we are going to reveal the real reasons behind all this SUPER human supplement use by someone who has been in the heat of the trenches…myself.

The controversy surrounding steroid abuse in sports has raged out of control, and you know the answer to 99 out of 100 questions, right? MONEY.

Alex Rodriguez and all the other unfortunate high performance athletes who got caught don’t regret what they did, they’re sorry because someone saw them with their illicit hand in the cookie jar. We’ve all heard the saying, “It ain’t cheating if you don’t get caught!”

Furthermore, A-Rod has said that with the stress of such Ginormous contracts, he felt that he could not rise to the pressure as Clark Kent. Waving millions of dollars in the face of a 20-year-old can be very intimidating, and as he will see, the players are just pawns, the hot, sweaty light of guilt must rise higher up the corporate ladder.

We are not going to address the ill effects of steroids and HGH on the body today, we can find that on the back of a milk carton, but here is the story of the tape for the player,

Unfortunately for Alex Rodriguez, now as the NEW poster child for being a banned substance user, it all comes down to this:

  • Steroids are illegal, otherwise restricted in use,
  • It has been proven that they improve your performance much more than what we can do with natural means, therefore
  • It’s cheating, plain and simple.

If a player illegally risks using steroids to perform and a competitor doesn’t, then that creates unfair play. If you challenged me to a race in bouncing moon shoes and you show up with spikes, then that’s not fair. I’ll still beat you 😉

Dictionary.com puts the word “cheat” like this:

“To violate rules or regulations.”

But wasn’t androsteindione against the rules when Mark McGwire was caught? It wasn’t just that Andro McGwire was taking, he was just busted by the media…he was stockpiling other supplements on top of which, by the way, were steroids, and last time I checked they were illegal.

The real problem with players like Alex Rodríguez?

The MONEY is in the hands of dumb young millionaires looking for quick fixes. Playing 162 games a season is arguably the hardest thing to do in any sport, with 6 months to play, 7 if you’re lucky, and each game averaging nearly 3 hours per game. The player needs something to aid in recovery… steroids do just that.

Now, in response to the Teflon corporations, “don’t point fingers at me,” lips,

Do you really think that Bud Selig, the franchise owners, general managers and field managers DID NOT know what was going on? C’mon…professional baseball is a business, they’re in it to win it, they trade players like we do baseball cards…and after the black eye he received from the 1994 baseball strike, the sport needed a face.. .lift, or should I say peck deck with syringe included.

The front office may not have stuck needles directly into players like Alex Rodriguez, God knows they wouldn’t have done that (sarcastic tone), but they sure as hell didn’t ask questions when the company’s revenue skyrocketed before and after Mark Mcgwire. and Sammy Sosa’s season-long home run derby in 1998.

If you were a business owner and your pockets started swelling with money almost suddenly, wouldn’t you want to know what was going on and what you were doing right? The answer is that they knew. They lie like most politicians, and don’t worry, those scaly-skinned gentlemen were probably in on it too.

Back to naive modern day gladiators, like Alex Rodriguez, being thrown under the bus. Now, Congress is getting involved, which is weird to me, why would they care? Do you remember the answer to 99 out of 100 questions? MONEY. Whether it’s to distract people and the media from his own circus, we’ll never know.

The reality is…

Unfortunately, there are quite a few fans who have suffered from this down economy, which means they will not renew their season tickets, resulting in reduced ticket sales and therefore making it more difficult for franchises to pay their employees. (the Gladiators). so it will be interesting for years to come because the rooster will come home to sleep!

Or is it the Philly fan?

Where do I stand in all this Alex Rodriguez jazz on steroids?

I played four years of college baseball, never used steroids, but played with guys who did… the closest I got to performance enhancers was using creatine, and for about a week, I thought about using Mark’s Achilles heel McGwire, androsteindione (aka as a steroid precursor). I never dared to do it, but for a brief time there, I seriously thought about,

The potential for hundreds of thousands of dollars I could earn with a professional contract, as it would help me build massive amounts of lean muscle mass, hit the ball farther, run faster, and recover from intense workouts at breakneck speeds! All things look for foam at the mouth.

All we need is love…

The players must come out, take responsibility, before their name reaches the fans, unlike Alex Rodríguez’s forced apology. Be honest and people will forgive you, be stubborn like Barry Bonds (who would have been a Hall of Famer without the performance enhancers, by the way) and you’ll end up like Pete Rose, taking his denial to the grave and to the gates. he will be closed forever.

The business of steroids, or other derivatives, will continue as companies continue to introduce stealthy supplements undetectable to the naked eye in a laboratory petri dish.
