    To be honest, I find it completely plausible that Bonds wasn't on the juice at that point. Shortly thereafter, yes, but maybe not at that point.

    You also believed Braun was framed.

    Albert Pujols statement on Jack Clark comments:

    "I’ve said time and time again that I would never take, or even consider taking, anything illegal. I’ve been tested hundreds of times throughout my career and never once have I tested positive. It is irresponsible and reckless for Jack Clark to have falsely accused me of using PED’s. My faith in Jesus Christ, and my respect for this game are too important to me. I would never be able to look my wife or kids in the eye if I had done what this man is accusing me of.

    I know people are tired of athletes saying they are innocent, asking for the public to believe in them, only to have their sins exposed later down the road. But I am not one of those athletes, and I will not stand to have my name and my family’s name, dragged through the mud.

    I am currently in the process of taking legal action against Jack Clark and his employers at WGNU 920AM. I am going to send a message that you cannot act in a reckless manner, like they have, and get away with it. If I have to be the athlete to carry the torch and pave the way for other innocent players to see that you can do something about it, I am proud to be that person. I have five young children and I take being a role model very seriously. The last thing I want is for the fans, and especially the kids out there, to question my reputation and character."

    I guess he's using Ryan Braun's PR team.

    I doubt he'll take any legal action, but damn, if you make that statement, and you have used, you pretty much deserve to go to hell.

    Player accused of using PEDs says nothing. A_QB's response? He must be guilty because he didn't deny it.

    Player accused of using PEDs strongly denies the accusation. A_QB's response? He must be guilty because Ryan Braun denied it, too.

    Player accused of using PEDs does anything else. A_QB's response? He's guilty because they are all guilty. He just knows it!

    Based on the use of "Jesus Christ" in the statement, I think you may be mistaken.

    That was the red flag that caught my eye when I first read this. Clark is claiming that Pujols definitely used PEDs because a guy "basically" told him. I think Pujols will burn Clark with this lawsuit.
