September 8, 201114 yr Entering his age 31 season, Steve Finley had 47 career homeruns. He finished with 304.
September 9, 201114 yr QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Sep 9, 2011 -> 03:26 PM) Don't you mean the Saluki Steve Finley? The part of him that hit those HR may not have been developed until after he graduated.

September 12, 201114 yr JPN, I think it's really going to be fascinating to see former/active major leaguers possibly start dropping dead in their late 30s/early 40s due to steroid-related health issues (like wrestlers)

September 12, 201114 yr I would think that most of the late 90s/early 00s 'roiders are over 40 by now.
September 15, 201114 yr Well the wrestlers also throw pain pills, coke, and massive amounts of booze into the mix as well.
September 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Sep 15, 2011 -> 04:04 PM) Well the wrestlers also throw pain pills, coke, and massive amounts of booze into the mix as well. And professional athletes don't?

September 15, 201114 yr All of the players from the 1980s would be dead if booze, coke and speed resulted in death
September 15, 201114 yr There's some fascinating stories out there about old/current WWE performers doing massive amounts of cocaine.
September 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 15, 2011 -> 10:10 AM) And professional athletes don't? Not to the levels that wrestlers do I'd bet on. I'd also bet a the % of wrestlers on the juice + massive other drugs is much higher than a pro sports guy. You think guys like Bonds, Sosa, and Clemens were downing pain pills like skittles while juicing? Edited September 15, 201114 yr by Jenksy Cat

September 20, 201114 yr All of the players from the 1980s would be dead if booze, coke and speed resulted in death Esp the mid-80's Mets Teams... And Doc Gooden wouldn't be on Celeb rehab
