* Here we go again

May 1, 2009

First it was the endless chatter about The Yankee Years. Seems the media just couldn’t keep their yaps shut about how Joe Torre dissed his players and bosses, blowing totally out of proportion thefew entries that actually addressed said topics.

Well, brace yourselves, boys and girls. It’s about to happen again.

When the news first broke that Alex Rodriguez had used performance enhancing drugs, there was buzz. Then came word that Selena Roberts was about to release a tell-all bio of the Yankees star, even though it was months before publication. The release date was moved up, from July to April, then pushed back to May (perhaps just in time for his return to the team? Hmm. Think of that as a promotion. Come to the ballpark and get a free copy of the book.)

So expect many articles like this (and this, and this) in the days and weeks to come.
