Covering the Yankees since 1842, we are the Sons of Kevin Brown. We believe that Derek Jeter is some kind of modern day living deity. We believe that Alex Rodriguez must hit 1.200 or he deserves to get booed mercilessly. We believe that EVERY ONE of our prospects will grow to become bonafide superstars. But most importantly we believe in the Yankees in 2008!

It Only Took One Day

Alex Rodriguez and the media are back at it again.

After declaring in no uncertain terms that he has never used any type of performance-enhancing drug, A-Rod said he had been tested "nine or 10 times" last season. The comment, meant to point out how stringent Major League Baseball's testing program had become, wound up causing speculation that Rodriguez may have flunked an amphetamine test.

As it turned out, Rodriguez says he was simply exaggerating the number of tests, as the Yankees later released a statement by him to clear up the issue.

"My quote from earlier today was taken literally," Rodriguez said. "I was not tested nine or 10 times last year. I was just using exaggeration to make a point.
