I'll make a deal with you, Mike: I won't write sports columns if you won't give medical advice! I am an MD, and I can tell you that there is a lot of controversy in the profession regarding this often-unreliable "simple little test". Readers: talk to your physicians.

What the heck do the Yankees do with Alex Rodriguez? His huge contract and distractions, not to mention his inability to step it up in big games, makes me think his days as a Yankee are coming to an end.

Men need to get over that crap about the Digital Rectal exam. If a finger up your butt is that scary for you go to a female urologist- they have smaller fingers. I believe I'm alive today because a VA Doctor- doing his job- did a DRE on me and found a lump- my PSA was still under 4- it would not have caught the cancer and mine was an aggressive tumor.
So man up wusses and take care of yourselves. A number of men are dead today because they refused a digital rectal exam.
