I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, for now.

There have been false reports in the news before, A-Rod never started looking anything like what Bonds became, and the news media has never been A-Rod friendly, since creating bad guys is a proven method to increase readers and viewers.

Testosterone is legal with a prescription. That leaves Primobolan as the only part of this report that looks bad. The report could likely be a combination of truth and disinformation.

Imagine if Blood testing was allowed how many people would test positive? Imagine in Football. Funnything, imho the owners knew and know who is dirty but without them who will fill the stands is their thinking. Problem is people will say big deal I will go watch A_ROID no problem. Make all the excuses in the world BLOOD TESTING should be the standard! Right now you can still take crap **** in a cup until you are blue in the face and never get caught. Great!

Imho what is happening to the common baseball/football fans condoning these guys. Furthermore how can you ever talk hall of fame with any of these guys? Once you cheat that is it you are done.

from Arod to Bonds to the lovable Mark McGwire. Regardless you cheat you are done imho!

As a yankees fan this just gives me one more reason to dislike A-Roid... But To defend him alittle I would like to see who the other 104 players on that list are. To see which other players that had a stat spike did it with help.

One of the more notible names could be David Ortiz who couldnt stay in the majors with the twins but became an MVP with the Sox in about that same time period.
