A-Rod on roids, Favre retires and Chris Brown beating up Rihanna?

Well, nobody is safe when it comes to baseball players. Earlier this week there were reports that Alex Rodriguez tested positve for steriod use in 2003. At first, he denied it when he was interviewed by Katie Couric. But a couple of days ago, Rodriguez admitted to ESPN that he did use steroids from 2001-2003 when he was with the Texas Rangers. Now, in 2003 he did win the AL MVP award and was the homerun leader.

So here's my question - Is he a Hall-of-Famer? The answer is yes because if he only used steriods from 2001-2003 and he was clean from 2004 to present time, I think the numbers would dictate he would still make it to Cooperstown. He made a mistake and he lied to the public about making the mistake. But it goes to show you that anyone that is accused of using steriods, can you trust a player when they say they didn't do it? And if a player say that they didn't use steroids and they really didn't, will the fans believe the player? Those are a few questions to think about.

Brett Favre announced that he will retire and it looks as if he is really hanging it up this time. I know that a lot of people don't like Favre for various reasons. But I love Favre for what he did on the field. Sure, he wasn't as smart as Tom Brady and as accurate as Peyton Manning, but what he did was played the game like the way it should be played. He gave 100 precent every time he stepped on the field and was a absolute warrior. He threw over 300 interceptions but threw for over 400 touchdowns. He won the most games out of any quarterback and has a Super Bowl ring so he is certainly a first ballot Hall-of-Famer. Congratulations Brett on a great career and good luck on your retirement.

Somebody who I won't congratulate is Chris Brown because there are reports comming out that he physically assaulted his girlfriend Rihanna. Both were scheduled to be at the Grammys and both canceled at the last minute. Brown's songs have been pulled from radio stations and he will no longer do the DoubleMint and Got Milk commercials. If he really did this to Rihanna, I lost a lot of respect for him and he needs get some help before he even thinks about music, TV or film.
