Arbitration Makes the Headlines (When A-Rod's Involved)

The Headline in Today's New York Times Blares "Arbitrator’s Ruling Banishes the Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez for a Season." 

Usually, arbitration is relegated to a dark corner of the business section if it gets any press at all, but (like him or not) A-Rod really has had a great career so banning him for a year is big.  The Times adds "In a statement through his spokesman, Rodriguez criticized the ruling and vowed to challenge it in court.... Legal experts say it is unusual for a judge to second-guess an arbitrator in a labor dispute."
