    Griffey and Pujols are the only ones that I can believe in right now. In five years, I don't know if I will feel the same way.

    By the way, how dumb do you have to be to test positive now?

    So, how much of this is tied in to Manny's charade of a holdout during the spring?

    No, but for Tebow's sake Dale Murphy certainly belongs!

    Came out of absolutely nowhere.

    Scott Rolen had a similar ridiculous jump.

    Yeah, but if there is truth to this, you'll know. There may be substances that are illegal, but have a medical use. But if it turns out that it was something like stanozolol, it's a BS excuse.

    Also, even if there is a legit "doctor made the mistake," excuse, what are the odds he was still also knowingly using stuff that was banned?

    Does that make Manny's story more believable?

    So, what is the scouting report on Xavier Paul?

    Pujols is also going bald. I'm sure he'll blame it on the rogaine. :)

    I'll lay dollars to donuts that in 5 years we will have proof positive that Tiger Woods and Lance Armstrong also use PEDs.

    I have friends who have huge bulging arms and I know they aren't on steroids. Looks aren't everything.

    As conspiracy theories go, this one is not so far-fetched.
