Jose Canseco isn’t the most credible man in the world but, love him or hate him you have to admit he’s a necessary evil of the steroid era. He might not have done it with the right intentions in mind but Jose’s book “Juiced” helped get the anti-steroid ball rolling. Canseco’s new book, Vindicated, spills more dirt although the information seems less reliable this time around.
Jose writes about people that he unsuccessfully tried to blackmail, and reminisces about the good ole days of being a washed up 38-year-old ballplayer that’s trying to catch on with the Los Angeles Dodgers.. At an open tryout. Jose remembers the day well.. Read the full story
Alex Rodriguez knows that the media and fans are going to scrutinize his performance as he nears the career home run record. Rodriguez has been loosely linked to the steroid and HGH era by Jose Canseco and John Rocker.. They’re not the two strongest character witnesses, but rumors take on a life of their own. In an attempt to pick up some good karma down the road, A-Rod is going above and beyond for admitted HGH user and teammate Andy Pettitte. Read the full story
Naming people in steroid investigations is the in thing. Every other week, somebody gets accused of or admits to taking the juice. With the notable exception of Sylvester Stallone, the roid user is usually an athlete.
The investigation into the Albany, New York-Orlando, Florida Signature pharmacy drug trafficking ring has turned up over 10,000 names.. None more surprising than Mary J. Blige and Tyler Perry. 50 Cent and Timbaland were also named, along with Wyclef Jean, but everybody knew Fiddy and Timb were on something.
Ok, so Roger’s denying everything.. Of course he is.. I like how he and his team are hiding behind the mistake made by the Los Angeles Times. You may remember the L.A. Times reported that Roger Clemens’ name was mentioned in the Jason Grimsley affadavit. As it turns out, he wasn’t and now Team Clemens is saying see, we told you… Here’s my thing.. The informant for the Times had good information, he was only wrong about the source of the info. Guys up and down the Mitchell Report have come clean about their steroid/performance enhancing drug use. Roger Clemens’ ace boon coon Andy Pettitte admitted to using HGH, but Roger’s the one clean guy? Uh, no.. Roger should’ve paid more attention to how poorly Barry Bonds handled the allegations against him. America will forgive you if you come clean, but all of the hemmin and hawin, and videotaped denials are only making the hole deeper.
