from selig's legacy. it's going to be -- bud selig steroid era. he almost washed his name. got this players, we they all agreed. a-rod will not let them win. >> for a-rod it's about money, nothing else. >> you can say it's about legacy. it's about money. >> legacy? what legacy? >> fifth all-time home runs. wants to finish up strong in his career. not going to have many years after this. so it is about money and there's a lot of money to lose and a lot of money to gain. >> shepard: wrigley tonight. wrigley field has been the scene of incredible delicious booing over the years. you know one thing that yankees fans they've everywhere, especially in chicago. my guess is every yankees fan and every cubby's fan tonight, boo the hell out of alex rodriguez. >> it's going to be an amazing scene. i think so. if the game is played at yankee stadium he will get booed. it's amazing. he is going to take the field, put on the blinds and do what a-rod does. >> there is any thing that could change this scenario? something that could -- could a-rod -- is possible that a-rod will go, never mi

>> reporter: in june, the city sued the league claiming bud selig is illegally blocking the move. if san jose wins its lawsuit, every time a team wanted to move, it would lead to

this is a huge opportunity for selig. before this he would be looked upon as looking the other way and allowing cheating. now he has a chance to put his foot down. they have real testing in place and now real teeth in these sanctions here. now what we have is a deterrent and major league baseball is now finally after all of these years saying we're not going to allow this into our game. we're not going to allow dirty players to continue to garner headlines, get all of this money and set bad examples for kids. so i think if he follows through, which it looks like he will, i think, you know, he'll be looked on with great praise 10 or 15 years from now. >> b.j. shecter, thanks for being on the show, my friend. >> thank you. >>> up next, no more cinnabuns for edward snowden. he's out of the moscow airport. what it means for the u.s. you don't want to miss that right after break only on "the cycle." [announcer] there's no hiding the goodness of the latest from beneful baked delights. new heartfuls are made with real bacon... .

bud selig is not having his best interest of the game clause invoked here. therefore, it won't be challenged. you know, if they banned him for life and then a-rod challenged it in courts and through arbitration and, you know, it was found in favor of alex rodriguez, then bud selig would have had his power diminished. he's not going to have that challenge now. in the long run, he's going to have some teeth to this drug policy. he already has 12 other players that have agreed to the suspension. ryan braun, who has agreed to a 50-game suspension. so a-rod is the lone holdout. in the long run, i think, you know, baseball is going to be better because of this. >> i do want to point out the suspension is official now. it has just come out. we're all talking about, you know, not a lot of love for a-rod. he's the most hated player in baseball. i've heard him called the hollow man, probably for good reason, but he has come out and said i look forward to telling my story. this has been something that's very hard to tell my own daughters, trying to pull the old sympath

they think bud selig went out of his power here. they are going to go out there and vehemently fight for alex rodriguez. that's what it comes down to. >> okay. i like bud selig. the first time the guy used drugs, he broke the rules. he got caught. then he said he wouldn't do it again. then he got caught doing it again. then he tried to cover it up, and now he is finally caught, and now he is appealing. why would you take his side? why would anybody take his side unless they were a union shop steward. >> in this case, that's the case. the union shop steward does his job. does anybody who's objective take a-rod's side? >> it's not a matter of taking alex rodriguez's side. chris, you understand this. it's due process. he is due rights. he was not going to take the medicine that major league baseball was doling out, swallow it and in essence ending his career. you don't think he's coming out after being out of baseball for two years at 39, soon to be 40 and say you know what? that's good. i'll take my $61 million and go home. listen, in

bud selig has been a renowned technophobe. >> baseball is a relatively slow game.is will make it even slower if they have to hit a pause while there's a review of the play, right? >> they actually say that it's going to make the game faster. because they've done research that the average argument between a manager and an umpire takes three minutes. they suggest the average replay is only going to talk about 90 seconds. if you think about that over the course of the game it could shorten it, not lengthen it. i don't thipg that's going to happen. i think for the first year or two it's probably going to lengthen it. ultimately this is a thing that could help four or five years down the line. it's going to be good for the game and i do think eventually it could speed up the game. >> if there are really brutal calls this will clarify it. sometimes a brutal call can cost you a win. maybe a pennant or world series or whatever. so it's probably very, very important. explain also in the first six innings, you can have one challenge. and in the last few innings, seventh, eig

he may have to pay a pretty big price. >> selig has made it his mission to clean up the game.w, the allegations of what has been done but essentially a-rod's the way he handled this entire negotiation process and ego. >> gregg: he has done everything to alienate selig and lots of players. they have abandoned their support of rodriguez because he is so disgraced and things were so egregious, i'm not sure the players' union is going to back him. what do you think? >> everything you read, it looks like the union is backing off. if the evidence is what we think it is going to be, i think they have to. at some point it's got to stop. the other thing, two quick things. number one, i wonder if he was with another team with a smaller franchise, would it be as extensive, probably not. i'm wondering if he has any right -- i don't do employment law but maybe you know, if he could jump into federal court for injuctive relief. >> gregg: i don't think it will work in front of a federal judge, back has the only legal monopoly granted an exemption by the supreme court for anti-trust. maybe co

and that's why bud selig, people are calling him a hypocrite.ack in 1998 when mark mcguire and sammy sosa were having that magical summer where they were duelling for the single-season home run record, nobody said anything. if you look at these guys, i think it was fairly obvious at the time. nobody wants to go out and accuse them of what you don't know. well, we've later learned sammy sosa tested positive in 2003. mark mcguire came out and admitted widespread steroid use. for bud selig to be doing this now speaks to how he wants to repair his reputation and how he feels like being harder. i call him sort of like a mob boss. he's a 79-year-old mob boss trying to crack skulls at this point to repair the errors he made in judgment a decade ago. >> he says he's willing to go all the way with the lifetime ban. he says he has that authority, you know, under the title 11 there in the collective bargaining agreement. and that would basically not only do what you've reported about push manager rodriguez out. it also cancels very lucrative employment con

players association and umpires will get a chance to weigh in on what commissioner bud selig calls aistoric moment. it will be a game changer. >> i think we ought to he solve we don't want to stay stuck in caveman days so this, let's justry to make it better. >> major league baseball will expand use of instant replay. they'll allowed three challenges one in the first six innings and two from the 7th. challenges will be reviewed in new york. >> it's technology, why not? let beter for the game. >> jen says instant replay will drag out the game. she doesn't want to it change. >> i like that aspect of baseball. it's not all auto mated. >> but this sports writer says baseball is behind nba. >> baseball needs to catch up on technology. fans wantf> correctly. >> we'll have reaction at 6:00. >> thank you. it's nice to have the right call. do you think it's going to work? >> it's a cold move. -- bold move for major league baseball. a progressive step. the good thing is that they're going to adopt nhl model they have calls reviewed in a war room in new york. so a lot of the umps are qualified

>> this is bud selig's fault.r the strike, no one wanted to watch baseball, he let them all juice, they were all firing them out of the stadium. i am a terrible baseball player, but he let this go on because people were interested in the game. you had all of them hitting it out of the park, he loved it, didn't do anything about it. allowed that a-rod press conference to go on, now we're supposed to believe he is serious? >> you know whose real fault it is? president obama! this is his way of undermining the american past time with the assistance of oprah winfrey. >> that's exactly right. can i say one thing about a-rod, he is still a phenomenal baseball player. >> phenomenal. >> and great kisser. >> one of the best baseball players to play. >> he has been playing all right. phenomenal? >> yeah. >> if i was juicing, i would be phenomenal, too. >> the yankees want their title back. >> new rules in baseball this year? challenges. they're going to have -- >> how annoying, they'll be like eight hours long. >> one in th

i think that's unlikely but he does have that right. >> if it's two years, david, and bud selig -- the commissioner comes down and says two years, if he appeals that, i mean do you think he's got much shot at appealing that? >> i think there's a couple of problems. recently there was a report that there's maybe a criminal investigation. >> i was going to go there next. is that what normally happens? >> there was a criminal investigation with bailco and barry bonds. i would be concerned if there's a criminal investigation that if i'm representing a-rod and i would try to appeal this, i would have to try to testify under oath and i might, as owe know, judge, having been a fifth. rosecutor, he might have >> like roger clemens. but roger clemens got out of that one. what else can you tell us? >> it's interesting with the money. there's so much money involved here. that's really what alex rodriguez is negotiating for. he can still make $60 million and there's provisions in his contract that if he hits 16 home runs he can tie willie mays. >> for 60 million dollars, i'd try to play. but yanke

>> i think it's a step in the right direction for what bud selig is trying to do.y with in the court of law is going to be interesting. the union has to do what it thinks it has to do in terms of supporting these players, doing what they need to do from a union standpoint in protecting them. there is all this wondering about whether evidence and fact finding is what bud selig is trying to do. how much that holds up in court is going to be the big question. >> chris boden, thank you very much for the latest there. we'll be following this all night. more on markets next when closing bell returns. stay right here. i get one viewd brokerage accounts with one login... to easily move my money when i need to. plus, when i call my local scottrade office, i can talk to someone who knows how i trade. because i don't trade like everybody. i trade like me. i'm with scottrade.

. >> david: bud selig has unprecedented power in levelling these bans. that's a fact. the role of baseball to told the players and the owners accountable. this situation has been festering for years, and all of the focus seems to be only on the individual players. is this a systemic problem, and can the union hold the owners accountable? >> that's a great question. there's kind of a lazy media story coming out that the reason why the player's union has been so much more arm in arm with baseball owners and bud selig, is because their own members want action on steroids, and they are responding to the will of their membership. there is perhaps some truth to that, but in actuallity, i think the player's association needs to be doing much more to be able to address the issue of performance-enhancing drugs in baseball. this should be their role as advocates for players, to change the way it is discussed from being an issue where the penalties pal on individual players, yet all of the benefits of the bulked up players go right to major league baseball own -- team owners. the

>> if bud selig had his way, alex rodriguez would this is about money. and this is about ego. okay?es this deal that baseball wants him to take right now, which he should take by the way, he wouldn't play again until 2015. and not only that, he would lose about $34 million. what he wants to do now, play tomorrow in chicago. here's the problem with that. if he plays tomorrow in chicago or tries to, at the last minute, bud selig still could invoke something called the best interests of baseball clause. if he does there, some feel that alex rodriguez cannot play during an appeal and he would lose $100 million. here's the bottom line. the last five years alex rodriguez did play, he was in steep decline. he knows that. if he waits till 2015 when he's nearly 40, being out of baseball for two years, recovering from a bad hip, that could be it for him. that's why he's fighting so fervently to get in there. >> you think he will fight this, he will definitely appeal the suspension? >> yeah, i mean, there's no question about that. i tell you something that's getting lost in the shuffle. there

and so selig yesterday removed the possibility of a-rod being immediately removed from the field.ight for the yankees in chicago. and play until the appeal is settled. and i think it's a smart move on baseball's part because it removes the argument that a-rod is being unfairly persecuted, he's being denied due process, that the alterer motive is to get the yankees out from under the contract. his case if he chooses to file a grievance will be heard by an independent arbitrator and not bud selig. >> can you describe the relationship between or lack thereof between alex rodriguez and not only major league baseball but alex rodriguez and the new york yankees which has deteriorated to a point they've been taking public shots at each other over the last couple weeks and months. there's no goodwill here. >> i think the yankees players will almost all welcome him back pretty core yally. he's not the player he once was, but the yankees have been getting no production out of third base at all so even if he's the equivalent of an average major league third baseman he represents an upgrade.

bud selig has to nip this in the bud, it's not good for baseball.e's a lot of other great stories out there. and this is really kind of consuming everything and they need to get it done. 211 is -- it's going to arbitration at the end of this season. so something's going to happen, he's still playing throughout the rest of the season. but it is disappointing for fans like us who just want to watch baseball and not worry about a-rod. but if he did take stuff from biogenesis, he really does need to pay the piper. >> i think it's very fair, and until we know otherwise, look today, randy levine says i'm happy to go along with you releasing your medical records, it's going to show just exactly what the yankees have had to deal. we have to view him as having committed the crime. >> he has not denied it this last time as well. >> good to see you both, congratulations, leann. when we come back, your choice for video of the day is next. the great outdoors, and a great deal. grrrr ahhh let's leave the deals to hotels.com. perfect! yep, and no angry bears. up t

but he was rebuffed and that is when the talks broke down with commissioner bud selig's office. selig had been considering a lifetime ban for the 38-year-old third baseman. >> it's the way baseball sees this, if all ten major leaguers they suspended accepted without fighting it, that is a huge victory for them. >> reporter: they played his final game in trenton, new jersey, saturday night. he walked in all four at-bats. he says he will be with the yankees on monday in chicago but right now that doesn't look likely. and with the suspension now, all but certain, the only question whether rodriguez will be able to appeal whatever punishability the league metes out and return to the ball field pending a decision by an arbiter. and we have breaking news overnight, four people injured in a limousine crash in las vegas. police said it happened when a pickup truck crossed the center line of traffic and crashed into the limo. four taken to the hospital. two in critical condition. >>> incalifornia, a building demolition went awry sending shrapnel in a crowd of spectators. it happened on s

it's unclear if bud selig is actually on board with the lifetime ban, and, two, alex rodriguez couldikely fight this in arbitration and win but those who are pushing for a lifetime ban said at least it would make a-rod defend himself and allow the evidence to come out. then after arbitration, alex rodriguez could then negotiate a suspension. here now is fox sports.com's ken rosenthal. >> baby has been aggressive on it in the minds of some too aggressive, going after some of these players, but that definitely the message sent, whether he is suspended for life or for 2014. either way, baseball is saying, enough is enough. >> we should note that a-rod has admitted using performance-enhancing drugs back in the early 2000s but denies the current allegations. >> is it not a young guy so a long suspension could mean the end of his playing days even without a lifetime ban. >> he is coming off two hip surgeries, not as nimble as he was, and even he admits he is no longer a spring chicken and if he does agree to a year-long suspension he would be 40 when he came back. that said he would love t

. >> alex are you prepared to fight bud selig on any suspensions he may hand down? >> you know i can't comment on that right now. it's still an ongoing investigation. i will follow with due process. >> reporter: according to a major league team executive, rodriguez is up to one of 15 players facing suspension or worse for performance-enhancing drug use tied to a notorious florida clennic. fans at last night's game were conflicted. >> i think he's bringing a lot of bad and negative publicity to the team. i'm kind of hoping this might be the end for him and we're not going to see him again. >> i think it would be sad for baseball, one of the greatest players going down like that. >> reporter: the other players are expected to receive 50-game suspensions but a-rod is in a field all his own. a source with knowledge of the investigation says he's facing a much longer suspension or even a lifetime ban. >> are they trying to make an example of him because he is such a big name? >> they feel he actively tried to obstruct the investigation. they feel like he recruited player

i think selig is a coward.e, ratings were terrible in baseball and everybody started juicing, knocking home runs, fell in love with the chase, they looked the other way while the guys were juicing up. you remember those guys. barry bonds' head grew about 12 inches, then he wants to protect his legacy, he is going to rere soon, he picks a villain, a-rod, no one likes him, cameron diaz feeds him popcorn in the stands. he kisses a mirror. he has two oil paintings over his bed. he is not a likeable guy. >> how do you know about his bed? >> a little birdie told me. >> 211. like when the limit is 14 miles per hour, how do they get to 211? >> the world is plagued by guests who wouldn't leave. a-rod is theony weiner of baseball, since his name is a-rod. you can't blame these guys. >> did you just say that? >> if you do something that makes you better at your job, why not. i know for a fact do you know how bill hemmer looks so good? he injects live mice into his face. he is 93 years old. he could get his hair from poor

selig had already banned ryan brawn of the milwaukee brewers, the national league's most valuable player in 2011, for the rest of this year. today he also handed out 12 other suspensions of 50 games each, essentially the remainder of the regular season. among the marquis names on that list: texas rangers outfielder nelson cruz and detroit tigers' shortstop johnny peralta. but road reeg ez, a three-time m.v.p. has eclipsed all the others and joins barry bonds, roger clemens, mark maguire and a host of others as fallen icons of the game. the 14-time all tar had off-season surgery but as fate would have it, he's ready to return to big league play tonight in chicago. he addressed the matter friday night after hitting a towering home run in minor league tune-up games. >> i think there's a lot of people that are confused and don't understand the process. there is a lot of layers. i will say this. there's more than one party that benefits from me not ever stepping back on the field. that's not my teammates. it's not the yankee fans. >> who is it? who benefits? >> i can't tell you. i can't tell

>> well, they're very serious about this, according to bud selig, the commissioner, and the owners.y, really serious about this. they want to straighten the game up and make it the game it was many, many, many years ago. >> ken, is that possible? i mean nobody is -- that doesn't play baseball has studied it quite as much as you have. i want to read you something that john cass wrote in the "chicago tribune." he wrote recently a-rod didn't kill baseball and turn it into a cousin of professional wrestling all by himself. he's had help over time, over years and years when baseball got sick and turned to drugs. baseball knew it and baseball let it happen because the lords of baseball wanted to sell tickets. do you agree with that? >> not entirely. i think that's a view. there was a time in the late '90s when people were turning a blind eye, wink wink, to some of this stuff but i believe major league baseball woke up. i think bud has handled this exactly right. he didn't go too far. my heart tells me in the best interests of baseball to get rid of a-rod altogether but he understood that

would not have been able to play tonight would have been if major league baseball commissioner bud selig had enact the the best interest of the game clause and said that alex rodriguez playing while appealing his suspension would not be in the best interest of the game. now, this is rarely, rarely used by the baseball commissioner. it would have been seen as a very confrontational tactic towards the major league baseball players association. right now the players union and the commissioner have the best relationship they've had in decades, if not ever. clearly bud selig did not want to anger the union, so a-rod will be allowed to play while he's appealing his suspension. >> bob, is that what this boils down to, the power of the union? we've all read the reports. some of this stuff confirmed. others perhaps will never be confirmed. there is at least smoke, fire, and everything else around alex rodriguez. he still plans to fight this or appeal. >> he does, tamron, because he thinks if he has a suspension through 2014, you know, he'll be 39 1/2 years old. he comes back, he may not be able t

when baseball commissioner bud selig finally announced his decision, his words were strong and direct. in a written statement this afternoon he said learning players were linked to the use of performance enhancing drugs, we vigorously pursued evidence that linked the individuals to violations of our program. if the biggest roundup of players accused of using the p.e.d.s, 12 including nelson cruz and johnny peralta have agreed to immediate suspensions. alex rodriguez, the highest paid and one of the highest profiled players ever to play the game is getting the most attention and will receive the most severe punishment. 211 games. it's the longest suspension in mayor league history. >> i am thrilled. and humbled to have the opportunity to put on the uniform again. the controversial all-star will be allowed to play while he appeals major league baseball's decision. >> it's possible they could drog out the problem rations rong enough to play in 50 or so games remaining this season. the arbitrator will uphold the suspension for 2014. >> and a-rod will start at third base as they open a ser

bud selig knows the steroids era is in the first paragraph of his legacy as commissioner.wn as the commissioner that got rid of steroids in baseball as opposed to the commissioner who essentially oversaw the steroid era. that is a big part of this. alex rodriguez in the quote you just played is talking about the new york yankees, the team he plays for which does have a lot to gain from him being suspended. the amount of time between this year and the end of next year that they would save in salary if a-rod is suspended is $34 million. and that is a lot of money for the yankees, especially because a-rod is not a very productive player right now. so they would be more than happy, at least financially, to see him suspended. >> right now, they are not in the best situation. put on your sports psychologist hat. this is a guy who was born, it seems to me, to play baseball. all that talent. why juice? >> it's a great question, especially because this current scandal all happened after a-rod signed a $275 million guaranteed contract in 2007. so he didn't have to juice. and he stil

the union is backing him saying bud selig, the baseball commissioner, has not acted fair. they say rodriguez is trying to cement himself as the guy who cleaned up baseball from performance-enhancing drugs. but beyond the next few months, what are the chances alex rodriguez has a future in professional baseball? >> i think he does. i think this suspension by major league baseball was an overreach. he is protected by the union. he is protect by the collective bargaining agreement. i expect the arbitrator to reduce the suspension maybe 50 games or a hundred games. i think we will see alex rodriguez back on the field. he's got a few more years left on his yankees contract and i don't think this season will be the end of the road for him. >> ben reiter, thanks for coming in. >>> a pennsylvania man who had ongoing feud with town officials is accused of opening fire during a public meeting killing three people. three others remain hospitalized including the shooter. police say rockne newell fired through a wall and burst into the ross township meeting. he was wrestled to the grou

>> reporter: in june, the city sued the league claiming bud selig is illegally blocking the move. if san jose wins its lawsuit, every time a team wanted to move, it would lead to absurd results. mlb would be subjected to suits from any city that desires a team, and from any city that does not want to lose its team. >> that's not what the competitive laws say or the antitrust laws say for any other business in america. baseball shouldn't be treated differently. >> reporter: so this 14-acre lot in midtown san jose where the stadium would go has pretty much been unchanged the last four years. both sides will be in federal court october 4th. everywhere.. as nearly half ♪ [ inaudible ] ♪ ♪ >>> long lines at lottery outlets everywhere as half a billion dollars signs danced in people's heads. ♪ [ inaudible ] ♪ million *before taxes. odds of winning -- 1 in 175 million. winners have been reported minnesota and new jersey. shark week hits close to hon the bay area. where this little guy was spotted...ne. a word of warning if you use google chrome: your passwords may not be as protected as

so selig is going to go ahead tomorrow and suspend him.'s going to suspend him on two count, under the joint drug agreement but also under the overall collective bargaining agreement and the so-called integrity of the game clause. and the reason why that's significant is that on the first, if he or any other player, like let's say nelson cruz of the texas rangers, who leads them in rbis and is expected to be suspended tomorrow, as well, any player could appeal and remain on the field pending the outcome of the appeal if they're just suspended under the drug agreement. but if you're suspended under the best interests of baseball clause, you can still appeal but you're off the field and cannot play while that appeal is being adjudicated. and baseball apparently wants to make sure that a-rod doesn't play until this thing is completely settled. >> the cover of "sports illustrated" this week, as people have read it, the last days of a-rod. i wanted to talk about this not just as a lifelong baseball fan, but this is an american institution deali

pogue: this is leonie seliger, the head restorer at the cathedral. i've come in search of ancient nanotech secrets. um, what we're looking at here are stains. the stain gets fired, so it's like pottery glaze. it's fused onto the surface of the glass. okay. the trouble is that you don't just paint a yellow color on glass and you know how deep and how rich it is. you have to use a chemical process. so, to make yellow, you mix silver with clay. silver and the heat actually produces a yellow glass. wow! pogue: she's using silver chloride, which in its natural form looks like small, silvery crystals. leonie mixes a tiny amount with red clay. seliger: it's a silver salt that is mixed with this clay. i got you. you can't see it; what you see is the clay. okay, okay. you would then paint that on. i've made a little series here where i've now applied this clay, and after it's fired if i then wipe that off... presto. oh, look at that! from silver clay comes a golden color. there's some kind of voodoo chemistry going on there for sure. that's the mystery. pogue

no guidance at this point, but we are expecting something from bud selig.e for a-rod and these other players mixed up with the florida lab. this dates back to january. we've got foxbusiness.com senior correspondent dun son pyle and charles payne. charles, he is still owed at this point $8.5 million, charles, from the yankees, that's for the rest of his salary, another 28 million for the last four years of his contract. all of that is in jeopardy now, correct? >> well, it's all in jeopardy particularly if there's a lifetime ban. apparently, that's one of the things they've been trying to negotiate with him, if he would sent a deal, you know, whatever their deal is and not fight back, then he would still be able to resume his career after next season, if not, they'll try to come down harder. we're essentially talking about a gigantic hit. either the 29 plus 8 million for this year or the entire package, four years at almost $30 million each. so either way it's gigantic numbers. there's a whole lot involved in this, and there's a whole lot of implications, too
