The World of A-Rod
A-Rod’s lawyer calls Anthony Bosch interview ‘a charade’
This pampered lad is so used to getting things his way and buying his himself out of jack-pots that he cannot and will not accept the decision brought down on him by Major League baseball.
On Sunday, 60 Minutes did an interview with, Alex Rodriguez’s attorney Joe Tacopoina who is a seasoned attorney that can fabricate with a straight face with the best of them. He is calling the charges against his client “a charade”.
The whole thing in a nut shell is; A-Rod has been taking performance drugs since 2010 when he went to Anthony Bosch and told him he wanted to be in the 800 club (800 home runs), a club that doesn’t exist and he wanted to be it’s only charter member.
Bosch has testified that he personally injected A-Rod with the drugs. I am sure that he is coming clean to save his own neck.
A-Rod was paying Borsch $12,000.00 a month CASH to keep him juiced up before games and had the ability to hide or cover up any drug tests by taking another concoction that Borsch “the mad chemist” concocted.
As far as I can remember, there has not been one sports figure that either the government or one of their governing bodies went after that beat the rap. It is a very extensive list.
A-Rod with all of his arrogance will still insist that he is “clean as the board of health”.
If in fact if he would have come clean in the beginning, I don’t think that his penalty would have been as severe as it is, benching him for the entire 2014 season and costing the high roller 25 million dollars; OUCH. That even hurts a guy worth 300 million.
The old cliche, “you can’t fight city hall” is very appropriate in these investigations. The powers to behave unlimited resources and will spend 100 million dollar to prove someone stole .10 cents.
Chris Christy is trying to be upfront and do his damage control for the giant traffic jam in his state beforehand but this may have backfired on the Big Fella if the hound dogs find out that he was just attempting to CHA.
These celebs have to learn a facts of life. If you are going to be a good bull-shitter you better have “all your bases covered” and be a darn good liar with a good memory.
Secondly; if you are going to do a bank job, do it alone so no one can put the burn on you. Too many people involved in any illegal ventures is a recipe for disaster.
A-Rod didn’t think that his “main shooter” would ever drop a dime on him, just like the Mafia didn’t ever believe that Angelo Lonardo would be a whistle blower. In the world of crime it is every man for himself. Who can make a better deal to get a reduced sentence.
A-Rod is going to go down fighting and continuing sticking to his story. What Major League Baseball doesn’t get out of him, you can bet his attorney will.
Lance Armstrong certainly was a very convincing in his denial on take drugs.
These celebs live in their own little bubble and don’t like anyone with pins in their pockets looking over their affairs. They are used to people continually catering to their every whim and in plain English “kiss their ass”. When someone goes against their grain they have a very difficult time admitting their shortcomings or crimes.
As some of the preachers verbalize from their pulpit with every sermon they make; “the truth will set you free” and will be a lot less expensive.
