A-Rod is of sound mind
I'm rarely inspired to post a story unless something exceptional occurs that lights a fire in me. On my way home this weekend from a company sales meeting I heard the news about A-Rod's then alleged steroid use and almost lost my lunch on the dash. Let me explain. For those that have never attended a large corporate meeting, they usually book a "motivational" speaker with the intention to inspire the troops to aspire to go above and beyond for that fiscal year. Out of respect for the person that spoke I don't want to provide his name or website. However, I will say that he may very well be out of a job thanks to A-Rod.
Our special guest started out by saying that he's a life coach for some of the greatest athletes in the world, and has studied the psyche of these athletes and their ability to achieve amazing things. I always go into these presentations with an open mind and try to dial down the cynicism in order to appease management. However, I couldn't believe my ears when this speaker bragged about the fact that he's a life coach for A-Rod. Apparently, he talks to him daily, and has done so since he started out in MLB. I couldn't help but think that if I was a life coach for a guy of A-Rod's caliber that I would keep that to myself. Especially, when my client is not that well respected by his colleagues, fans, and family. I leaned over to my co-worker and whispered "next thing we know he's going to say he's Barry Bonds' life coach." Dude lost it, and we just checked out for about two hours straight.

When your career is based on name dropping clients
and then the clients show poor decision making ability then you’re message is screwed.

Did the life coach have
any insight into A-Rod’s hair situation?
