Selig should definitely face him at the hearings but I have very little sympathy for a thief, liar and cheater like A-Roid. You fuck people and then have the balls to show outrage when you get fucked in return? Laughable. And pathetic. What a circus.

The issue with having the Commissioner there at the arbitration case is moot. Sure he can testify, however the Basic Agreement with the Players Association requires one person of authority from MLB to testify at cases like this. The league did so when they asked COO Robert Manfred, Jr.

Done deal.
Now asking him to be thrown off the three member panel (by Alex Rodriguez's lead attorney Jerry Tacopina) is a different story. This panel, made up of the arbitrator, a representative from the Player's Association and Bob Manfred of MLB, will help Arbitrator Horowitz to reach his decision.

Selig isn't looking to stick it to NY. If for anything, he's helping put money into their pockets. The first reaction from the Yankees about the ban was, "Let's get under the cap." 13 for Granderson, 12 for Pettitte, 10 for Mo, a fuck you to Cano at 31, 40 for the A-Rod suspension over time, CHA CHING.

Well the independent arbitrator Frederic Horowitz has ruled...
* 162 games * for Alex Rodriguez. Good. He and his lawyers will bring the lawsuit and the his big challenge as well as his case will be dismissed. The Supreme Court has ruled in precedents that federal judges shouldn't involve themselves in independent arbitrator rulings.
The only positive thing... More money in legal fees for his attorney Joseph Tacopina and his expert legal team.
... Alex Rodriguez should pay out millions of dollars. :rofl2:

Ah, but A-Rod is going to go with the "they are targeting me unfairly" defense. All of the evidence that was behind closed doors will be opened to the public now. It's not just about taking roids, it's a case of him being a ringleader in the distribution to other players.

It's over. I'm sure it wasn't his legal team that made the suggestion. Alex took a look at his legal bills and said fuck this. 2 more lawsuits with all of the evidence open to the public and no guarantee.

It was rather amazing to see him go after the Player's Association, as well. Talk about biting the hand which was feeding you, big time. And what a way to push some players who were on the fence to the other side, A-Rod. Class move. Perhaps he saw his waning popularity with players, fans, press and club owners alike,

Considering Jeter's retirement, Alex may very well be back in pinstripes next year. They own him for another 3 years for 61 mil. May as well play him since no one else will take him for that price.
