Are We Really Surprised?


Andre Agassi: "I Used Crystal Meth"
Tennis star Andre Agassi serves up a bombshell in his new memoir: In the late '90s he began regularly using crystal meth. "I can't speak to addiction, but a lot of people would say that if you're using anything as an escape, you have a problem," he says. Agassi's book, Open, details his descent into drug use, as well as his hair loss, his troubled marriage to Brooke Shields and the love he eventually found with his current wife, Steffi Graf.
When asked how he thought his fans would react if they found out he was using drugs, Agassi, 39, says: "I was worried for a moment, but not for long. ... I wore my heart on my sleeve and my emotions were always written on my face. I was actually excited about telling the world the whole story."

In the AL though, Mark Teixiera, Miguel Cabrera, Joe Mauer, Derek Jeter and Jason Bay have all made their cases. Unfortunately I don't have a vote, but if I did it would go to Victor Martinez based on handshakes alone - and the 108 RBIs this year didn't hurt. So you tell us, who is the 2009 AL MVP?
