- Thread starter C-4
- Start date
^^^^....yea but you neva know thoe,....he was always a lil stocky and towards the end of his career he blew up and got fat and hella thick!.....and plus ...that list says Wally Joyner;another name that makes you say huh?...but i think it was prolly when wally was at his careers end there when he played in san diego and if thats true then wut could be the chances gwynns name dont pop up either?...do u think if its tru they will make a big deal out of it since hes a hall of famer already?.......but like i said .....ya neva know!
hm, maybe because steroids doesnt =insane numbers. 1st off, this is whats wrong with the "steroid" scandal, everyone thinks that steroids=record shattering numbers and CHEATING CHEATING CHEATING! you still have to be a good player, otherwise steroids wount do shit. 2nd, for being a shortstop, tejada has always had great numbers, and until last year, hadnt missed a single game since he started playing.
Miguel Tejada was regarded as one of the best players at his position when he was with the A's. He was taking shit then.
And in terms of A-Rod:
The original "whistle blower", Canseco, says the list is incomplete and he couldn't believe A-Rod wasn't named in the report. It's a little hard to think Canseco's lying after this shit all comes out that he was saying years ago.

Bush Says Steroids ‘Sullied’ Baseball, Forgets His Blind Eye Helped Nurture ‘Steroid Era’ »
Earlier this week, former senator George Mitchell released a damning report on steroids in baseball, noting that “for more than a decade, there has been widespread anabolic steroid use.”
President Bush — an avid baseball fan who sometimes watches games in the Oval Office — addressed the report today, saying he is “troubled” by the steroid allegations. Bush “hopes that this report marks the beginning of the end of steroid abuse,” said Press Secretary Dana Perino. Bush added:
I think it’s best that all of us not jump to any conclusions on individual players named, but we can jump to this conclusion: that steroids have sullied the game. … And my hope is that this report is a part of putting the steroid era of baseball behind us.
Watch it:
“[P]ayers and the owners must take the Mitchell report seriously,” Bush ordered today. But from 1988 to 1994, when Bush was managing general partner of the Texas Rangers, he turned a blind eye to steroid abuse.
Several former Rangers — Ivan Rodriguez, Juan Gonzalez, Rafael Palmiero, and Jose Canseco — were all alleged to have used, or have admitted to using, steroids while playing for Bush. Gonzales, Palmiero, and Canseco were identified in Mitchell’s report.
Jose Canseco authored a book about steroids in baseball during the early 1990s and argued that Bush must have known about the drug use. In July, sports columnist Skip Bayless — previously a sports journalist in Dallas — said Bush “looked the other way” when working for the Rangers:
I knew the President when he was owner of the Rangers. And I heard all the whispers around the locker room and the clubhouse. … I think he looked the other way.
Ironically, Bush wants to put “behind us” a steroid culture that his negligent management helped foster.

Actually, George J. Mitchell, the guy running this investigation is on the board of directors for the Boston Red Sox. And we all know damn well that someone on the Red Sox had to have been juicing too.
