Reggie Jackson gave an interview to Sports Illustrated (S.I.) a week or so ago. In the S.I. interview he mentioned that Alex Rodriquez’s (A-Rod) stats where in question since he admitted to using Performanve Enhancing Drugs (P.E.D.) to help him get some of those stats. Reggie Jackson still works for the New York Yankees as a special advisor. Since this interview has come out Jackson has been asked to stay away from the team. Why? All Jackson did was tell the truth and now he’s being punished for it. A-Rod cheated; he cheated himself and he cheated the game of baseball. I guess because A-Rod is still an active player and Jackson is just a guy behind the scenes that Jackson is the one they want to punish and try to shut him up. We all know A-Rod cheated; he admitted to using P.E.D’s; so what was the issue with what Jackson said. Jackson also mentioned Andy Pettitte in his interview saying he was a nice guy and will end up in te Hall of Fame. Now Pettitte is another guy who’s admitted to using P.E.D’s and was a witness at the Roger Clemons trial. I guess the thing that seems to be throwing me off here is why is telling the truth wrong?
