		<description><![CDATA[Well, I finished &#8220;A-Rod: The Many Lives of Alex Rodriguez.&#8221; It didn&#8217;t end as badly, with all the heavy psychoanalysis, as it began. But it didn&#8217;t end well. The book didn&#8217;t really tell us anything about Rodriguez, it didn&#8217;t make a hard and fast case that he is a cheater, and it didn&#8217;t tell us [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Elizabeth, it looks like Dave has left us. He is on vacation this week, but didn&#8217;t leave before asking me if I expected him to read and blog about A-Rod while he was gone. I told him I did not. I don&#8217;t want to read this on vacation either. In the meantime, I&#8217;ve gotten through [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Elizabeth and Dave, thanks for reading the book with me! I&#8217;ll think we&#8217;re in for a really interesting discussion. To answer your question, Elizabeth, I&#8217;m going to &#8216;fess up and admit that I actually am not a big sports fan. And by that I mean, I usually hate sports. I haven&#8217;t played any team sports [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks, Monica and Dave, for inviting me to join the fray and kick start the book blog. Since you took me up on my suggestion to start off with Selena Robert&#8217;s book on Alex Rodriguez, I&#8217;m preparing to shoulder the blame should it somehow fail to be blog-worthy material. My hope was that, at the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to admit, the overriding reason for my participation in discussing &#8220;A-Rod: The Many Lives of Alex Rodriguez,&#8221; is to help my colleague Monica get her blog off the ground. As a fellow blogger, I understand the importance of trying to get an audience right away and then grow it. Truth be told, I [...]]]></description>
