He went on with Couric 14 months ago and said that he had never done steroids before. Now, he's on here with Gammons saying "Yea, I did it once...but -never- any other times". What has he done that makes him believable?
"Don't follow this Selena Roberts lady..." Even though she was correct in her report (by Rodriguez's admission).<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Because unlike Bonds, Clemens and McGwire...and Sosa too...he's admitting it. If he's willing to be honest, then it says a lot. His story is on line with the stories from the NFL guys and other MLBers, who say that they don't know what they're taking. Obviously he knew it was shady, but this stuff ain't labeled "ROIDS."
Do I condone his juicing? HELL NO.
Have I always liked him? NO.
Do I think his career is tainted? YES.
But, I respect him for admitting this, although the Selena Roberts thing is douchey.

I hate my pretentious sounding username too.
