does he care at all about the legacy of the mlb? is it really all about himself at the end of the day? >> i think it is. if you look at, you know, look in history and in recent history, roger clemens has done the same thing and said, look, i have never used steroids, even though there's significant evidence and witnesses that would say to the contrary. you know, alex rodriguez, like roger clemens, is sticking to his story. he's going to go to his grave saying he never used it. fact of the matter is, a lot of people have evidence against him. it seems pretty overwhelming. other players, at least in this recent boigenesis, have had the same type of evidence against them. they haven't even challenged it. seems pretty credible right now. it's really sad because if you look at the career of alex rodriguez when he came up with the seattle mariners when he was 18, so much promise. he was by far and away the best player in the game for a long, long time. he didn't need to use steroids. then one thing after another. i don't know if it was th
