60 min. A-Rod

If what this guy says is true what a piece of crap cheater. No respect is due this guy and to deny it still even after a years ban is a slap in the face to every fan. I am so glad we never got him and even better he went to the Bronx. Sad for baseball. Henry Aaron is the king still in my book.

Look at what the roid age did to baseball.America"s game has been tarnished forever.I would much rather see Pete Rose in the hall than any juicer. Including Papi who I think is awesome.

I have to think that anyone who put up HoF-worthy numbers over the last 20-25 years was juicing at some point of his career.

The guy who was supplying and injecting A-hole seems pretty shaky to me too. Between A-hole and that guy baseball is looking like the Capone gang or some Columbian Cartel guys. Big shame that the game is so tainted.

For a long time the use of these drugs was not specifically forbidden so I'm willing to forgive and forget some of the players but once it was addressed by the league and specifically banned , I think the guys who kept doing it should be excluded from all record books and the HOF. Now you got to be sure , not just speculating on who used what. I don't think there is any doubt any more that A-hole was juicing long after all the rules were in place to forbid its use.

Including Ortiz !
All of baseball is suspect.
Baseball is a joke.
The league officials & owners certainly loved the tv ratings & $ brought in by all these guys on juice. League & owners all suck also !
And Pete Rose is still banned.

All Sports use them....not just baseball. If you think Baseball and Football are the only sports using PED's.....I have some shares in a bridge I'd like to sell you.

The Olympic sports are all bound by the WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency) code, which has much more stringent testing requirements, and a much greater list of banned substances, than the North American pro sports. Off season testing, called "out of competition" testing, is also required under the WADA code. The flaw in the system is that each member country is in charge of testing their athletes out of competition, and some countries are, uh, "somewhat lax". For example, in recent months, it was discovered that the Jamaican federation didn't do any OOC testing of its sprinters for over a year. Spain is also notoriously lax in testing their athletes, especially their soccer players and cyclists. France, on the other hand, is really serious about it, and for many years, using PEDs for sports enhancement has been a criminal offense there.

I am not naive enough to think guys don't use it but I think the thing that gets me is his denial of the situation. Take you medicine like a man and move on. Your records are a joke in my book becasue you got caught, a few times. The evidence is overwhelming. You blew it.
