Caught between A-Rock and A-Rod


Comedy writer and blogger extraordinaire Ken Levine http://kenlevine.blogspot.com/posted his view of similarities between the Alex Rodriquez steroid scandal and the Rock Hudson AIDS scandal.

Don’t think it’s a stretch that I’m comparing you to Hollywood heartthrob, Rock Hudson. You’re both performers. And you both have strong ties with sports. You’re a professional baseball player. Mr. Hudson was involved in a prostitution scandal involving members of the 1962 University of Kentucky football team.
