A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

People assume that a person on steroids looks huge and "Hulk Like" but that is not the case. THere are many different types of steroids and they all do different things. Some add bulk, some will cut you up etc.

I like many others have been saying without a doubt Randy Johnson was on the juice

I also knew A-rod and clemons were juciing too... id bet Glavine and Maddux juiced up as well. Pujols obviously juiced up Dereke Lee, Aramis Ramirez... all them dudes

when are people going to realize that everyone was doing it...so therefore it's not a big deal.
I also think its funny that when certsain players get outed its a huge story or theyre "out to get them"... but when freaking Eric Gagne and Clemons get caught its big for a week or so then all the sudden its a non issue.

All it did was make the ALREADY great players even better.

big whoop.

At the end of the day your still going to go to the park with your boys, and watch some people play the game.
Baseball is a game of "games-manship" aka cheating. (spit balls, scuffed balls, stealing signs, pine tar on the brim of hats during world series games, etc)

so why all the hoopla now??
Guarntee that half these dudes are on HGH as well...

Its a long season, at 30+ years of age that takes an affect on you, you need SOMETHING.

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

Wow, looking back at the '01 Texas roster when A-Rod claimed he started using....

- Ivan Rodriguez
- Rafael Palmeiro
- Gabe Kapler
- Ken Caminiti

That locker room was a roid factory.

GEEZ.....

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

Did you read what I wrote???, of course I don't believe Pettitte only took HGH once. Only admitting to using when you're caught red-handed is the BIG LIE.


A-Rod is lying through his teeth saying he only used in 2003, it's so predictable and laughable.

You got me. I have no idea what the heck you're trying to say.

Alex admitted to using from 2001-2003.

I merely mentioned that as long as Alex admits to using then he's taking the right step. Then you get on me because you're saying he'd be lying if he said only one year. That really wasn't the point of my comment.

But, you probably know my point better than me since you've been right time and time again about everything.

Is he wearing lipstick in this interview?

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

Never thought he'd admit it. I'm sure we're still not getting whole truths though. But at least he has a chance to clear his image a little, but this will hang on his head his whole career and into his retirement.

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

Judging by his comments from the interview, it's the smartest thing he's ever done or said. You've seen what happens to people that deny, deny, deny. I actually have a newfound respect for the guy (just a little bit lol). Simply because he admitted to it and admitted that he took it more than once, why he did it, when he stopped, why he stopped, etc. I think the court of public opinion will learn to forgive and forget somewhat, just like Petitte. I don't know if he gets in first ballot in the HOF, but he'll have a better chance to get in before Clemens/McGwire/Bonds.

I dont remember if Juan Gonzalez and Jose Canseco were there in 2001. If so, you can add them to the list.

as roided up as Rangers teams have been, you would think that they would have won

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

Agreed.

In the Gammons interview A-rod said that he didn't know for sure what he took. Yeah right. Give me a freaking break. I'm not stupid.

You're going to stick a needle in your body and inject an unknown substance? It's like these athletes think we are stupid. Take the Andy Pettite or Jason Giambi root and just give us the complete truth, especially when you're busted.

I'm not sure if I believe his 2001-200 time frame either. I liked how he tried to blame it on the "culture" and act like he was young and didn't know what he was doing.

Lame.

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

as opposed to what Clemens is doing.

Clemens never tested positive. They dont have any evidence on him at all, except the word of a criminal.

They didn't have enough roided up pitchers. Should of went after Farnsworth, Clemens, Gagne or that guy that used to close for the Braves. For some reason I can't remember his name. The crazy one that shouted obscenities at Mets fans.

I doubt very strongly this is the whole truth. I think the only thing he's being honest about is using from 01-03, which 03 is the date they have on him. I think it went on past that and he may still be on hgh or something undetectable. Clemens, Pettite, Giambi, Sheffield were all in that Yankee clubhouse too. I also don't buy the fact he didn't even know he tested positive until he was told this weekend so that means he wasn't lying to Katie Couric because he didn't know the truth and he didn't know for sure what he was taking because it was such a "loose" culture. That's what i find to be the biggest lie of all. The only truth you're gonna get out of these guys is the one thing they are caught on. This is all just my opinion of course.

John Rocker. He actually did play for the Rangers a few years ago

I know you're a Clemens fanboy but come on. They don't have any positive tests on McGwire either. I am a McGwire fan but I'm not naive to the fact that he juiced.

Clemens let his trainer inject his naked wife's *** with HGH but Clemens didn't do it. LMAO. Yeah right.

Re: A-Rod tested positive for 'roids in '03

That's right. Come to think of it, didn't Gagne play for the Rangers as well?

There is lot's of good **** in the Arlington area! You just have to know where to look.
