Arod juiced? never! I wonder if any of the stars I like are on that list, I'll be very sad if any are.
 
I bet there was a whole generation of star baseball players who were on steroids.

It is slightly ridiculous.
 
So much for all the fawning sports casters going "oh oh, that juicing Barry may have the record now but our love, our savior, the great A-Rod whose pure and clean will pass him before its done".
 
Perhaps we should have a separate sports league where all players are allowed to do as many illegal performance enhancing substances as they want. I'm sure it would make for wonderful ratings.
 
There is no reason to believe he was juicing. Ephedrine and Adderall are both "performance enhancing substances"...

Blood doping is not considered steroids, although it is most definitely performance enhancing.

That's the most depressing part. Who's left that could do it cleanly?

My money's on Evan Longoria.
 
Update: He did in fact test positive for AAS; two substances known as Primobolan and Testosterone.

This stack is pretty common among athletes because desired results can be achieved with low doses.

An asterisk just isn`t enough, and maybe baseball is getting more...empty stadiums! Mr. clean,"Pete Rose", sure packed em in. Gambler or not, he looked more normal,... flying through the air, head first, steroid free...for the team and fans.

Steroids are the most abused drug in the U.S.,that was brought up on 60 minutes at least 10 years ago.
And that was mostly with kids under 18,with parents providing it for their future Hall Of Famers in pro sports.
They estimated around 20 million kids were using it then.I doubt that it's gotten any better since then.
But that's OK, even if it is against the law.

My money is on the smallest guy in the league; you know the one who is there becuase he is pure talent but gets 1/5 of the amount of money of these roid users, and even less a percentage of play-time.
 

If I could get my hands on some HGH for cheap, I'd probably be using that **** like crazy.

I used to be a HUGE fan of the sport until the strike, and the year that there was no World Series. I think babe Ruth and Joe DiMaggio both rolled over in their graves from that. Since then, I have been looking for opportunites to get back into the game once again, but nothing has drawn me back. There have been some bright moments, but to me, they've all been overshadowed by the drugs and over-inflated salaries.
