Union official tipped A-Rod to test, report allegesby Ken Rosenthal
This is going to get ugly.


snip
You know the rest: Federal agents, while investigating BALCO, discovered the list of 104 players who tested positive. Surprise! The names are starting to leak, with Rodriguez's being the first.

"If I've heard of him," my son said, "he used steroids."

1. A-roid's the first because he's the biggest name...
...also the biggest a-hole, so maybe that figured into it as well.

3. AND they knew they were going to be tested, and 104 still tested
positive...this just shows that it's much more widespread than MLB ever admitted, and we ever wanted to believe.

4. I'm just disgusted by the alerting of Arod to drug testing
That says it all about Selig and MLB. They were complicit in the cheating.
