    i could be totally wrong though as you're closer to the situation.

    No, you may be right. By mixed I meant there will be enough people on each side that you hear cheers and boos, but the boos could very well be significantly louder.

      If players want to see how to handle the aftermath when you got caught, they need to watch Everth Cabrera's apology. Seemed very genuine and contrite.

        Really can't wait until they come back to Baltimore...A-Rod is going to get destroyed. During the ALDS last year there were "steroids" chants you could hear clearly on TV. Refer to 15:32 of this video:

        It's going to be like that, maybe even worse.

            Of course you'd never see a reaction like that coming from "Rod up his A". Instead, we get "I'm fighting for my life!" Really *******? Maybe you should visit a cancer or burn center.

            And **** the Yankees organization, GM, coach, whoever, for allowing him to take the field. If you hated the Yankees before, this will only stoke it.

              If Arod spoke like this, most people would say it wasn't genuine, that he's a phony, that he's fake and a bunch of other things. Rarely anything he says is taking positively

                I'm not letting you get away with that simple statement and EXPLAIN AWAY his perpetual behavior and attitude. Defend what you're saying. In light of how he has acted in the past, how CAN you take what he says as positive, especially when it has a narcissistic slant? Fighting for my life? Really? So he would have to stop playing baseball right now and his life would be over?

                Stop.

                      Like anyone who is under investigation at a job. Sit there *** down. The Yankees don't get to determine if they should pay him or not like a regular working citizen. I keep hearing how much pro sports is a "business". Ok. That's what businesses do.

                        The rules are that you get to play during your appeal. Has nothing to do with the Yankees.

                          It just seems your on a warpath against anything Yankees. The you said **** the organization. I mean, c'mon.. I'm not a homer, I call it how I see it. Why not play him? If he can help out some, before he goes down. Then fine.

                          It just sounds like another reason, and explanation to hate the Yankees.. Been there done that.

                            Fine. Just don't shed any tears for this guy 10-15 years from now when he shows up on some talk show looking emaciated and wanting people to pity him.

                            (ref.: Lyle Alzado)

                              Shed tears for Arod? you got me all wrong Daflys, He made his decision, and now he has to live with the consequences. I don't like Arod, dude's got about as much integrity as Mike tyson does. He's a liar, and he's a disappointment, and all around strange. He's a distraction in the clubhouse, and I wish he was gone. I wish we could eat that fatass contract.

                              But while he's still available to play, I'm all for it, if he can help, so be it. Doesn't make the Yankees organization Satan, it's part of the rules. And it means me not having to watch Lillibride at 3rd for a few games. Jesus..

                                The man has a union, and like any union job, when an employee is up for discipline your union rep fights for you.

                                As for the Yankees, why should they suspend him? To make an example of him? To show A-Rod who's the boss? He's gonna be paid no matter what.

                                If anything you should be yelling @ MLB & Bud Selig who basically postured in the media & now look stupid.
