    After reading Nadar's open letter to Mo, I started thinking, what do you think about these comparisons.

    Villian of MLB
    Now Arod comes #1 with Braun #2
    Future Harper

    Reason, they both started there careers with tons of talent, put the me first attitude is a huge turn off to the fans

    #1 Citizen of MLB
    Now Mo #1 and Jeter #2 and not because I am a Yankee fan.
    Future Andrew McCutchen

    Reason It has taken Mo nearly 2 decades to obtain this position by living a treating everyone around him with class and dignity. Andrew is on his way.

    What other comparisons can we make of the Good, The Bad and the Ugly.

    You really think Harper to be a villain? With Manny back in the game, he might be on the list as #2 rather than Braun... granted he is still at AAA, but I think he is more of a villain than Braun is... As far as future... I can't think of anyone that rivals the like of A-Rod, Rose, Bonds, or even Reggie, Belle, and Sheffield... as I see it, there isn't anyone nearly on par with A-Rod or Manny...

    ok... just saw this headline on ESPN and checked it out... the headline said "Poll: Braun among least trustworthy athletes"

    it goes on to say "The general population in the U.S. says only eight athletes are less trustworthy than Braun, according to Repucom's numbers: Marion Jones, John Daly, Manny Ramirez, Lance Armstrong, Michael Vick, Metta World Peace, Pete Rose and Dennis Rodman."

    what I found really interesting is that A-Rod wasn't less trustworthy than Braun...

    That list will most likely change after the suspension and all the facts come out on Arod

    it definitely will in NY, but not sure how it will across the nation... I would have thought he would have already been worse off than Braun... guess not....

    Arod is hated around baseball, when this comes out he will rocket to #1 with a bullet.
