Alex Rodriguez, the legendary baseball slugger, said that he is proud to come clean after being accused of using performance enhancing drugs. During a press conference, A-Rod said that he preferred sleeping after giving one of his best performances to end a 15-inning marathon on the Friday night and did not saw David Ortiz’s news conference Saturday.

From TimesUnion.com:

While Ortiz denied ever using steroids and blamed his positive test in 2003 on over-the-counter supplements, A-Rod came clean about his use of PEDs during his press conference, a decision that unburdened the three-time AL MVP.

“I’m so proud of the way things came out,” Rodriguez said. “I took a lot of things off my chest, and since that press conference, I feel like a new man. I feel like I’ve been embraced by not only the city of New York, but my teammates, my coaches and my manager. I feel liberated by the way I came out and did things.”

The fact that A-Rod disappeared for a month during spring training to rehab his surgically repaired hip also helped him move past the steroid controversy, his month in Colorado serving as what he called “a blessing in disguise. It gave me a chance to refocus, rethink things and basically take a time out from all the white noise I created for myself over the last year and a half.”

Fans of Rodriguez are happy to finally learn that the baseball slugger wants to remain free from controversies after being in issues, from the steroid controversy to his public relationship with Madonna to his pending divorce.
