As a baseball superstar and a competitive athlete, Alex Rodriguez had his fair share of rivalries over the years. A-Rod has fought and confronted many people on the field while playing the game. But let’s talk about one of his most bitter rivalries off the field. The former New York Yankees star has been in a tense feud with MLB legend Jose Canseco.
Notably, back when A-Rod was dating JLo, Canseco accused him of having an affair with his wife. That is when the bitter feud between the two legends began. Most recently, Canseco used his own tainted past as a selling point for a new business venture.

Others appreciate the fact that he is upfront and honest about his tainted past.
At least Jose is honest with himself and owns it. There are probably many players who juiced but will flat out deny it.
