No more Aroid but more Arod

First I have been and I am still against Roid users being admitted into the hall. This thread is about how I am moving from Alex Rodriguez being known as Aroid instead of Arod.

I was watching ESPN first take, YouTube link, as well as watching MLB tv a lot since getting YouTube tv. I will say that my disgust with Arod has really started lowering. Seeing him on tv has really gone a long way in saving his image.

The first take video is a great example of how to redeem yourself in the public eye. He still isn’t a Yankee to me but he is a great representation of someone that is moving in the right direction.

There is an interesting article on Fangraphs (I think) from 3-4 years ago in which players were asked to select a name form a list of not-yet managers who would make good managers. Several players answered along the lines of "you know this may be strange, but the the guy who could become a great manager if given a chance, is Alex Rodriguez."

He's got a lot to overcome, however he is working hard at proving his worth to baseball. I say good luck to him.
