About what I expected. He salvaged about $10 million for himself and isn't done yet. Still curious how the case against him will stand up in court vs the Braun suspension.

Not sure the court has jurisdiction here. All depends on how the union contract is written.

Withdrawing his appeal. Adios, A-Roid:

quote:
Alex Rodriguez's attorneys filed notices of dismissal Friday in federal court in Manhattan to drop his lawsuits against Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association, and will accept his 162-game suspension for the 2014 season.

"We have been informed that Alex Rodriguez has reached the prudent decision to end all of the litigation related to the Biogenesis matter,'' MLB said in a statement. "We believe that Mr. Rodriguez's actions show his desire to return the focus to the play of our great game on the field and to all of the positive attributes and actions of his fellow Major League Players. We share that desire."

I wish he would've kept going. He's a sleaze, but MLB has been underhanded and hypocritical in this case.

If he followed the rules, he'd be playing this season. Cart, horse etc.
