Then he contrasts A-Rod's fessing-up to the ludicrous denials of Bonds, Clemens, McGwire, and Manny, and gives him some credit on that score. The bottom line seemed to be that Jeff could not pick a bottom line.

That's pretty much the way I feel too. But nevertheless, I am willing to give him his day in the sun.
