Alex Rodriguez on Early Success, Therapy and the Baseball Hall of Fame

I think, well, I'm still recovering. But I, I've been in therapy now for over 10 years, and it's really saved my life, Craig. The one thing I will say is that I wouldn't wish on anyone, in a weird way, that you have so much success so early right out of the gates, 'cause I think your self-awareness

decreases, your ego increases, and personally, I just didn't have the tools to have so much so early.

I wanna be honest with you. There, I'm, I was watching it, and there was a part of me about halfway through the, the third episode and I, I, I started thinking, "Well, may- hang on."

Mm-hmm. "Maybe part of his motivation is obviously, you know, you don't need the money."

Mm-hmm. "Part of the motivation is maybe the Hall of Fame. May- maybe A-Rod really does think ...

Because the reality is, your numbers are better than 90% of the folks- ... who are in Cooperstown.

... who are in Cooperstown. Maybe this is part of a, a, a campaign- Mm-hmm ... to get into the Hall of Fame."

Yeah. That, that's totally fair. Um, I will go the other way now that you saw it.

I'm definitely not going in the Hall of Fame.

Whi- which is, you know, the, I knew the rules.

I, I broke, I broke the rules, and if that's the penalty that, that's completely on me
