Alex "The Fraud" Rodriguez just 'fessed up to taking performance-enhancing drugs while playing for the Texas Rangers during a three-year period beginning in 2001.
Cheater Rodriguez told ESPN's Peter Gammons, "When I arrived in Texas in 2001, I felt an enormous amount of pressure. I needed to perform, and perform at a high level every day."
Liar Rodriguez continued, "Back then, [baseball] was a different culture. It was very loose. I was young, I was stupid, I was naïve. I wanted to prove to everyone I was worth being one of the greatest players of all time."
Ruiner of Sports Rodriguez also said, "I did take a banned substance. For that, I'm very sorry and deeply regretful."
Blah, blah, blah cheater.

The sad part of all this is if a player has to take drugs to be the best player in baseball, then he never had a chance at becoming thte best player at all. The best player is natural ability..and doesnt have to stoop to drugs to do it for him.

The truth is he IS NOT A CHEAT because 90% of all athletes USE STEROIDS, u all can live in ur imaginary world and believe that only 1 or 2 is using but the truth is its in every sport and will never go away. So its stupid to single out any1, 90% of people in baseball,nfl,pro wreslting,olympics etc it doesnt matter what sport they are using something to give them an edge. So how can u be cheating when every1 is doing it? thats the reality face it or be a SHEEP and believe in the fairyland world.... BTW the USA is has the most amount of steroid use in sports more than any1, why do u think the keep wining the olmpics? hmm i guess carl lewis wasnt using and ben jonson was?pff what a joke. The major nations USA,RUSSIA,CHINA can get away with it... But as i said b4 every1 is using so its not cheating but testing 1 guy positive and another negativer because hes nation is richer and gives there athletes desgigner steroids,hgh etc and gets away with is cheating. carl lewis is no2 not no1.

This is a little harsh, you jump all over the guys who lie about stuff and won't admit it. This guy is admitting it and your still all over him. We need a little fair journalism or this country is screwed.
