"It was really amateur hour. I mean, it was two guys," Rodriguez said. "We couldn’t ask anyone. We didn’t want to ask anyone."
Maybe it was.
A-Rod's entire persona seemed as contrived as ever.
Pardon me, but I seem to recall a time when the above bolded phrase was used by legendary anchorman Ron Burgundy to reference something a little more serious than a ball-player using a banned substance.
PED's may have taken over the game of baseball for nearly a decade, but when a woman tries to take over the news, well that's just going too far. Amateur hour, indeed.
If you thought A-Rod was mad at the Sports Illustrated reporter..

A good friend of mine used to say, "This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Brian Cashman really said this?
It’s in the NY Times:
"This is Humpty Dumpty," General Manager Brian Cashman said. "We got to put him back together again. We got to put him back up on the wall."
