More deliciously juicy incriminating evidence on steroids in MLB. Article on Rick Morrissey's column today: Chicagosports.com_Rick Morrissey_column


And I quote:

"his name [Radomski] is striking fear in a large number of current and former major-league players. Radomski, a former Mets clubhouse attendant, has admitted to supplying dozens of players with steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs from 1995 to 2005."

And I quote:

"I [Radomski] distributed anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs, including human growth hormone and Clenbuterol, as well as amphetamines. I deposited the payments for those anabolic steroids into my personal bank account, and then I used the proceeds to finance my residence, which was the base of the operation, warehouse and communications center for my anabolic steroid-dealing business."

And I quote:

"But federal prosecutors say the raid on Radomski's home uncovered hard evidence, including financial records and players' cell phone numbers. Again: uh-oh."

It comes to no surprise to me that players have been juicing in the past two decades. We were all duped. And we'll get to hear even more names linked with 'roids. I find this topic fascinating, even when I was a young athlete. There comes a time in a boy's life whether he decides to be good, or to be bad. I chose to be "good", bulking up the old fashioned way through exercise, throwing, weight lifting & eating steroid-pumped meat & dairy products. Of course, being nick-named "Stretch" has it that all of this didn't allow me to add any bulk, but to be lean and mean. Of course I never took it to the next level with the aid of 'roids, supplements and substances (which will prove that I'll still have a pair of nads in old age). There is an ungodly amount of cheating going on in baseball, and even as a pitcher I never scuffed or gelled up the ball, tho I did cork a bat purely for the novelty of it (hand drilled a 1" hole about 7" deep and stuffed that sucker with cork from the parent's leftover wine corks & sealed it with a cut out piece of cork). Yes corking a bat makes a world of difference: faster swing with a big bat, the ball jumps off the bat quicker tho I never used it in competitive play. The Pro's seal up the cork hole with a piece of wood & scuff up the end to hide it.

I have no longer taken the MLB record book with any kind of regard, (might as well burn it) and will shout "STEROIDS! CHEATER!" when Barroids Bonds breaks Hank Aaron's most cherished sports record. At least Hammerin' Hank did it cleanly, tho while in the two (at the time) tiniest ballparks there were. The only people celebrating the new record will be Barroids and retarded Giants fans, who will put down their margaritas and thick crab sandwich on buttery griddled Boudin sourdough http://www.examiner.com/a-682761~Ballpark_food_hits_home_run.html

So when 755 is broken, at least my rose-colored glasses will remain on the shelf and there won't be any needles breaking in my arm & whatnots.
