Everyone is missing the story. This is not about did ARod use PEDs. We all know that. It is all the other claims of obstructing the investigation is what has the ARod camp really up in arms. Those claims very little evidence has been made public.

I think Selig was upset that he didn't accept his punishment and move on like all the rest. It was Selig's swan song. ARod could afford all the legal wrangling it took to make it difficult on the league, so much so that I'd like to know the real bottom dollar the league paid to get this information..

Selig making his buddy Bart Giamatti proud.

 

No doubt. However, what does your gut tell you about it? You think ARod is guilty based on what is out there? I mean, seriously, he blatantly denies it all. I don't know how fast test leaves your system but he's been clean a dozen times. Part of me thinks that if he passed, you should either figure out how he beat it, or do nothing because he's been smarter than you. Mixed feelings, but ny gut says he's a guilty bastard.

Very little doubt in my mind that he's guilty. However, if the MLB only has a rule in place that makes one guilty if, and only if, they fail a drug test, then I fail to see how he can be penalized at all by MLB. Of course, a personal confession would work but short of that, they shouldn't be able to penalize from hearsay.

 

I do think they may have some evidence we haven't heard about. Still, considering the source, it would take a lot to convince me to trust him.

Guilty of what? The PED use. Or threatening to kill Bosch?

I feel certain about A. 50/50 about B.

No doubt about it.

In fairness to MLB, what kind of source is going to be dealing with these type substances? Not as if we are dealing with reputable doctors. If MLB felt all is true with threatening Bosch's life, sending him to Colombia, etc. why would they not go for a lifetime ban? 211 would seem way light in that respect. Remember, Bosch is being compensated now by MLB.

A, obviously. B, which to me is the real storyline here, I genuinely feel MLB is not above concocting a lot of what Bosch is now saying.

Right. So how can he be trusted? In a court of law a prosecuting attorney would never put someone with such a questionable reputation on the stand. Too easy to show the jury what he really is.

 

It's a witch hunt...

I don't disagree. REmember, the fearless leader is a car salesman.

The most damaging evidence I saw was the text back and forth...pretty clear at least to me what they were discussing.

A witch hunt implies there is no truth to allegations and/or charges. Do you think there is no truth that A-Rod used PED's supplied by Bosch?
