Mr. Hooten is being way more PC, and nice, than I would be... no way in hell that coach didn't know what was going on with that kid.

 

 

Which is also the way he can be the most effective. Kudos to him. He's no dummy.

You heard it right. And while it's only his opinion, it makes perfect sense.

Yikes...

That's more common sense. If they would risk their health to cheat, they cheat by going through a loophole.

Ugh.. I do NOT like Pellman.

The way he said it makes sense...they scout a kid after the game...go up to him and say nice fastball kid..or nice power...you should probably try and bulk up a little...something along those lines.

I know.. I just can't believe it was said.

What time are the players due on?

I get it...

 

 

I'm sorry guys.. I guess I am just floored at some of the things that are being said. I did not think it would be like this at all. Those guys got big brass ones. Kudos to them.

Woah.... Westmoreland "could the basketball players going into the stands be a result of roid use...?"

I agree, up to now. They are not pulling their punches. Let's see what happens when it's the players or Selig and Fehr on the hot seat.

They are trying to connect Artest/Jackson/O'Neal to steroids.

Reminded me of a funny story. In the eighties Lawrence Taylor took a drug test, and afterward the lab couldn't figure out what to make of the sample.

 

After three weeks of tests, they figured out it was apple juice.

I've been watching since about 11 and this is flat out boring. They aren't going to get anything out of this except kids, don't use steroids. That kid's manager who had 20 players on the team taking steroids has to be an idiot not to realize what's going on and not showing the kid a proper diet(giving him a list to eat).

I would say that more of Artest being a freaking psychopath more so than being roided up..... :bang

As opposed to the users. They don't have big brass ones.

Actually, come to think of it, I think that happened once too.

Souder just asked if roids effect hand/eye coordination.. Dr. Volkow says there is no evidence of that in her studies.

Nope. I agree with Hooten.. they are cowards.
