A-Rod and others received HGH from a Miami :
"The names are all included in an extraordinary batch of records from Biogenesis, an anti-aging clinic tucked into a two-story office building just a hard line drive's distance from the UM campus. They were given to New Times by an employee who worked at Biogenesis before it closed last month and its owner abruptly disappeared. The records are clear in describing the firm's real business: selling performance-enhancing drugs, from human growth hormone (HGH) to testosterone to anabolic steroids."
Wall Street Journal sports writer Tim Marchman on Twitter says:
"Anon. guy who says he was ripped off by dope pusher provides what he says he thinks are the pushers' implausibly detailed notes to reporter. Nothing squirrelly about that!"

The story of how Anthony Bosch built the East Coast version of BALCO the notorious California lab that provided baseball greats such as Jason Giambi and Barry Bonds with steroids
I'm no Barry Bonds fan, but shouldn't the word "allegedly" be in there somewhere?

So the Yankees stand to save $114 Million if it can be proven A-Rod was juicing.
I smell conspiracy ... and a gaggle of lawyers being well compensated.

Hey, it was only alleged until he fessed up last week. Barry hasn't fessed up.

I can no longer support A-Rod. Always wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I'm over it. A voided contract, suspension, and him gone from the public eye forever would be like a dream come true for the Yankees.

A-Rod's rapid performance decline appears to back his claim that he isn't using anymore.
Or perhaps he's just using weak juice.
