Keidel: A-Rod Has Devolved From Diabolical To Delusional
A-Rod makes it impossible for anyone but his lawyers to defend him. And they do so because he pays them. What's your excuse?

A-Rod makes it impossible for anyone but his lawyers to defend him. And they do so because he pays them. What's your excuse?
It's only getting worse for Alex Rodriguez, and it's not likely to get better for a long time. Rodriguez's reputation is being destroyed further with every accusation that hits the news cycle.
"It was not difficult for me at all," Selig said. "I spent many, many hours thinking about it, trying to be fair, trying to be logical and rational. I wouldn't second-guess a thing at all. I thought it was eminently fair."
Adding to the intrigue: Lackey is scheduled to start Saturday's game against Rodriguez and the Yankees in Boston.
Welcome to the NFL, MLB! In case the tone here is confusing, let us clarify. This is not a good thing. Not at all.
Chris Nelson hit his first two home runs of the season, including a grand slam against his former team, to send C.J. Wilson and the Los Angeles Angels past the New York Yankees, 8-4, on Thursday.
The Yankees do not appear to be content to have just Alfonso Soriano and Alex Rodriguez as their main right-handed power threats down the stretch.
Commissioner Bud Selig called it a historic moment for the game in a press conference in Cooperstown after two days of meetings with representatives of the 30 teams. The proposal is to be voted on by the owners in November.
Don't look now, but the Bombers are creeping up in the standings with Alex Rodriguez back in the middle of the lineup and Alfonso Soriano absolutely crushing the ball.
Soriano's mighty stick and megawatt smile have lifted the gloomy mood in the Bronx.
TMZ's report "was greeted with both skepticism and bemusement" at Wednesday's quarterly owners meetings, according to the New York Daily News.
Alfonso Soriano homered twice for the second straight night and drove in a career-high seven runs, giving him a staggering 13 RBIs in two games while powering the Yankees to an 11-3 win over the Angels on Wednesday.
There's no appealing this one. Rodriguez's role in "Henry & Me," an upcoming animated children's film, is going, going, gone, according to the New York Post.
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.
"Look, as I told him when I talked to him in Tampa, we need him," Steinbrenner said. "We do. That's just obvious. We've still got our injuries, and my hope is that he comes back and continues to improve and stay healthy."
