I am supportive that you guys, Hrbowski & Sam Morley, are looking forward to A-Rod's milestone accomplishments. They are heady and very big milestones indeed. But, let's not fool ourselves, A-Rod will never get the HOF call. Imagine you were one of the favorites running in the Boston Marathon, and one of your highly rated competitors, we'll call him Hotbox McGee, was on equal footing with you. The starting gun is sounded and off you go. You are off to a fantastic start and you have a considerable lead. In the meantime, Hotbox McGee, sneaks off the route and takes a taxi cab 20 miles towards the end of the marathon route. He gets to his preferred destination, smokes a few cigarettes, has a beer or two, hits on a couple young ladies, etc, etc. McGee has it timed out, he knows what the time frame is for a runner to win the Boston Marathon. When you are about .5 miles from where he is, he gets on his way, eventually winning the Boston Marathon and beating you by 1 minute or whatever. If what Hotbox McGee did is acceptable to you, that's your call. But, Hot Box McGee is plain and simply a blatant cheat. Alex Rodriguez is the Hotbox McGee of Major League Baseball.
