True but if any athlete & their legal team deserve to be handle that way, it would be A-Rod & team. Braun is slowly creeping up there but A-Rod is still douchebag king.

Secondly, I hate lawyer talk in interviews. If Tacopina was doing his doing job correctly, he would have talking points to prove he & A-Rods allegations. I'm sure that Tacopina & A-Rod have privately discussed a plan of attack in concerns with going at MLB. It shouldn't have been that difficult to throw some talking points out there if indeed they have any at all.

No it wasnt. I was watching this morning, the lawyer was trying to use it as a means to say that MLB was hiding the real stuff and he wished he could talk about it and tell everyone how it really was. Then Lauer says okay, MLB has just said preach on. HE didnt know what to do after that and continued his shtick.

Trap question?

The very first question Matt Lauer asked that attorney was did he have the credibility to make the claims that he has been making and the attorney responded by saying that he belives he does. The attorney then stated that if MLB would just waive the confidentiality clause, then he would love nothing more to explain A-Rod's position, but he can't because of that clause.

So Lauer informs him that, since he brought it up, he just received a letter from MLB saying they are willing to waive that clause if he is.

The attorney then immediately proceeds to:
