In the future, movies will be made about the legend that is Alex Rodriguez
Never a rich man, Alex Rodriguez played baseball for the love of the game
Famous for his incredible work ethic, Alex Rodriguez played in a time when baseball was littered with doping and rampant cheating, yet he managed to do it the right way and stay clean his entire career.
Known for one of the manliest plays in postseason history, Alex Rodriguez is responsible for the new rule in baseball that allows you to attempt to knock the ball from a player who is trying to tag you out. A rule that revolutionized baseball.
So let's celebrate this man, this man who epitomizes everything great about the MLB. A man who will never have an equal. A man who was once fed popcorn by Cameron Diaz and dated Madonna.
As a father of two sons, I plan on using Alex Rodriguez as the ultimate role model for my kids. The perfect example of how to play the game right, and importanly, how to be a better man.
Thank you, Alex Rodriguez for giving me a person to look up to in this dark world.

i hear they are putting that in the next NFL Films Super Bowl Anthology dvd special
Meh, when you're worth the kind of money he's worth, I'm not sure you can say his life is going down the shitter. I'm fairly certain he could never play another game of baseball in his life and he'll be absolutely fine.
Wiping away his tears with $5,000 bills.
I'd give 50/50 odds of him being broke in a year or two if he's banned from baseball.
I don't know. He never seemed like the guy to just blow all his money.
Whenever anybody says how bad A-Rod's life is going, somebody inevitably says "oh yeah rich boy sure has a lot to be sad about".
Considering he has to have troubles walking with how much his body is deteriorating, the likeliness of him ever playing another game while still being 100% healthy or anything close to it aren't looking good, the odds of him playing a full season ever again look even less good, he's facing a lifetime ban from what he loves because he continues to say he did nothing wrong even when people close to the situation say his opponent has at minimum "hundreds" of pieces of evidence against him, and everything he's contributed in the past will likely never be recognized because at the very least he's going to have to wait to get into the Hall of Fame (if he even ever gets in) due to all the steroid allegations.
Money can't fix everything.

Look I know a lot of ball players go broke, even ones that are relatively highly paid but I don't think any of them made close to A-Rod money. The highest paid athlete to face bankruptcy that I can think of is Vick and federal prison certainly played a role in that.
Not saying it's impossible (I guess even Trump has faced personal bankruptcy) but it would take some remarkably bad decision making for A-Rod to go broke and it would certainly take more than a year or two. You can't really squander ~$500M in salary over 2 decades on cars and mansions. He'd have to lose some big money on bad business ventures or maybe some kind of a scam.
isn't he one of the guys involved in those crazy private celebrity poker tournaments?
i can see it
he's not a smart man
plus he's probably spent millions on tampering with evidence
Pretty sure he will still have a pretty solid life thanks to his million of dollars.
He won't have to worry about money but he could still have a shit personal life if MLB won't allow him to keep doing what he loves.
Why do people think people think like this
Not everybody is Donald Trump. Alex Rodriguez isn't fighting this long for money, he is fighting to continue doing what he loves.

To be fair, it's hard for the "regular" person nowadays to have any sympathy for someone who's mega rich since so many people are struggling with money right now.
This attitude might have something to do with A-Rod being a bit of a shithead in general not to mention a liar and a cheater.
Do yourself a favor and read this one too.
exactly.
he chased the money his entire career. arod doesn't give two shits about winning a championship, he wants to another 27 million dollars.
I'd cash in those life insurance policies if I were you, kids.
You may get your wish, Schide.

Not much sexy out there on the market.
The writing (read: trolling) in these is worse than the figures he bemoans. "Mickel-sin, not Mickel-saint", "A-Roids", "Lyin Braun", "Johnny Goofball"? Peter King and First Take are more tolerable than this shit.
Treasure? Really?
They'd have to basically give the Cubs the Bucs farm system to pry Samardzija out of there, I think
He hasn't had the power this year that teams want
I think that is somewhat overkill but man that would be a hell of a move for them.
It's intentionally terrible. I love them. It's like the worst Rick Reilly/Peter King nonsense boiled down to it's purest state.
And if he's in a wheelchair the rest of his life... Well, there are inherent risks to roiding yourself up for so long, he took those risks, it made him as wealthy as he is now, and now he is going to pay the price. I don't wish harm on anyone, but he knew what he was getting into.
We've had better quality trolling on these boards.
I'm assuming this post is an example of that, unless you genuinely don't understand that when the audience is in on it, it's satire
do you consider the onion to be trolling
=/=
"this article was written in order to get you to bite on it and rage at its poor quality HAHA WE GOT YOU"
shane ryan is the worst offender
i don't know why they think being insufferable jackasses would be sustainable for.... multiple years day-in and day-out
trust me, I've done it
it doesn't make you popular
it's funny every now and then but i don't see how any sane person could read that kind of content every day
