Jesse as much as I agree with you about needing coordination and the most fun sport to play... it does blow to watch! I.M.O.

Not only hard to master technically and strategically, but one needs huge doses of stamina to shine. Four years of soccer contributed mightily to my track stardom! :king:

I didnt say that soccer sucks... just that watching it sucks. I would say the same thing about the NBA. Playing basketball is fun and I am sure that playing soccer is fun although I have never done it, but watching it... yuck!

Craziness. The single hardest thing to do in sports is hit a fastball. Now lets talk about "the juice" some more.

Eveyone out there does what they can to succeed in their field of endevour. What would make atheletes any different? Were they on the banned substance list at that time? If not, whats the problem? Are there any current or former Red Sox players on the list? If so why aren't you blasting them? Is it because there are diffrent standards for them? I think A-Rod is being blasted on these pages because he plays for the Yankees, who just happen to own the most world series championships than any other team. Sounds to me like sour grapes. Just so you know, I'm not a fan of either. I'm a Cardinals fan.

It is funny that A-Rod was juicing the same year Bonds hit 73 homers. It was the players fault for talking it. But the blame should have been on baseball for ignoring it. At least A-Rod, Pettitte, etc had the balls to admit their mistakes compared to Bonds, McGuire, Palmeiro, etc. We live in a steriod era of sports for at least 30yrs and we cant change that but we can move on so kids of the future dont.

We still have pure baseball players at least. Ichiro Suzuki is probably one of the purest hitters of our time.

Cutler that picture of Hank Aaron looks like he 20 years old. Look at A-Rod at 20. No difference. Not defending A-Rod but you can't tell on some people that juice.

I think we know what Stoika is getting at. He'll be dropping 400ft bombs by summer

It is their lives at risk. What needs to be done is controlling how the steriods are distributed. You are a professional athlete, you have a prescription and use under the care of the team doctor. You are 12 and trying to make the football team, no roids for you!

So you'd have no problems if you found out that David Feldberg was using steroids to better his game? Or better yet if a local pro that had beaten you in numerous tournies was an admitted steroid user?

Just lower the pitching mound and lighten the bats F the 'roids

Obviously she didn't notice the girls she's not a lesbo, that's why she was playing hacky sack with the guys (insert joke Bob)

My highschool was the reverse all the drinkers and partiers played soccer and all the straight laced kids played football.

I think people are bashing ALL of the players that have been named. A Rod is just being made an example of, as he should. He's a huge name and an even larger douchbag. It just turns out some of them are Yankees. That's why i want to see the list, I want to know all the players. There probably are Red Sox on the list, I want to know their names too.

I dont understand why no one ever bashes the athlete who has profitted most from his Steroid abuse? Lance Armstrong. People seem to overlook it because of his battle with cancer and the all the good he does through his foundation.

Perhaps because those are unproven allegations by a few questionable detractors which Armstrong has vigorously denied?

This is from Wikipedia: "Armstrong has continually denied performance-enhancing drugs and has described himself as "the most tested athlete in the world". Throughout his career only one test showed doping products: in 1999, a urine sample showed traces of corticosteroids, but the amount was not in the positive range. A medical certificate later showed he used an approved cream for saddle sores which contained the substance."

Lance is a true athlete. If you question that, read this.

Good point. IMO the yanks got gAyRod so they could regain the all time HR record. Now there should be an * next to his stats. I think we deserve a refund.

I am going to do a cycle today, win Tourny 54, and then blame nefa for not regulating steriod use. haha, lot's of these top athletes are egomaniacs and will do ANYTHING to get an edge and win.

why is it that a-rod gets bashed more than plax

plax brought a gun to a club and shoot himself

really is what a-rod did that bad?

do you really care if he lied?

John DeBois · Post by **John DeBois** » Thu Feb 12, 2009 7:29 am

he cheated. not good.

Matt Buono · Post by **Matt Buono** » Thu Feb 12, 2009 2:00 pm

so did at least 100 other guys but only arod get the blame

how does that work?

he did cheat but if the other names were out there then the blame could

be spread around not just focused on arod

Shawn Mullen · Post by **Shawn Mullen** » Thu Feb 12, 2009 2:36 pm

I'm sure the others will get theirs eventally too. A-rod is just the 1st step, he is 6'+ wearing blush and lipstick and popping roids. I'd make an example of him too.

Matt Buono · Post by **Matt Buono** » Thu Feb 12, 2009 9:21 pm

Sounds like most of the Rangers during that time were all juiced
