By The Book

Lies that he told,
When he was 18 years old or perhaps it was 17.

“I’d say that was accurate,” Alex Rodriguez told ESPN, when admitting he took steroids.

“No, I didn’t take steroids,” Alex Rodriguez told CBS.

So which answer is it, yes or no?

That’s the main problem here. The secondary problem is wasting money on bad bets like Youkilis and Wells. 0 1
