Nah, his arms and legs got bigger too. Look at his arms in the pic I posted compared to in the pic you posted. That's not fat.

Count me as surprised. I didn't think he was taking them. My opinion of him doesn't change either way.

As far as I can remember, there has only been one player to stand up against steriods, and his name is Chad Curtis. EVERYONE else who has accomplished anything special is a suspect. And it's the players (and their labor association's) own fault.

There really is nothing better on a Sunday morning than an in depth analysis of David Ortiz' body!

I was actually surprized by this....because he'd never tested positive before or since. Now comes info that a union official might have been tipping Arod
on when a test was coming?? In 2007, Arod had a chance to 'come clean' in an interview with Couric..and he lied. Now, he'll have to live with the repercussions. And MLB has another black eye!

he's not the only one trust you me. 103 of them tested + so that's almost 8% of MLB. A-Rod just got hosed by MLB saying theyed keep it inturnal on who tested +. What would happen if say Cal Ripkin's name was on the list of names +?

Anyone catch the interview with Gammons? I watched a good bit of it, curious as to what you think.

I only saw clips.
He admitted to use 2001-03 I believe.

The part I did not hear (maybe I missed it?):

"Is that I am Arod, and I am a bald faced fkn LIAR."

Does lying matter anymore?
I fkn hate liars, I cant stand liars.

I actually came up with:

Liar, Liar, pants and hopefully your gonads are on fire.
Or more gently, as a DTer put it...
I hope you die in a fire. Over and over.

Yeah, I watched it, pretty funny. He said way more than he needed to yet still felt the need to lie through his teeth and contradict himself everytime the question got too specific. I guess he's worried about legal action from admitting that some bodybuilder was shooting him up which is a shame cause I think we'd all like the truth more than a bunch of BS about GNC. You can blame the possible legal ramifications in the wake of those South Carolina cops saying they were looking into charges on Michael Phelps for his hesitancy though most likely.

there is no serious testing regimen.

my assumption would be that either everyone is using or only idiots aren't.

why else would i think someone wasn't?

I've tried to avoid it, but ESPN is milking it to the max. They showed clips throughout college hoops last night. Hell, it is on right now as I type this.

What do I think? Blah blah blah. I can't believe a word that comes out of his mouth. Anyone that has a track record of excellent lying can't be trusted. He' trying to save his own arse, plain and simple and will say whatever he needs to say to do that.

i would really be shocked, he doesn't seem the type. but then, once upon a time, i defended nick saban when everyone said he was going to bama after he said he wasn't...

and what ever did happen about the whole 'it's staying internal' thing??
