SI.com: Troy Glaus -- Roids

Agree, Devil.

I'm a big Piazza fan but I always believed he skated on the steroids issue more than anybody in baseball.

 

Or was Piazza's groin injury made up to cover another ailment that they did not want released? Or maybe he just wanted a few days off? We all know injuries are made up sometimes.

 

He was out for six or eight weeks ... described as tear of muscle away from the bone

 

Ugh. I'm waving the red flag.

 

Ah, this is tough. I always thought he was a solid player and kind of liked him.

Then again, I was a McGwire/Sosa fan when that whole shindig was going on, and now looked what happened.

Who's next? Mark McLemore?

 

I'd really appreciate if law enforcement could just release their entire list of suspect athletes in this case, instead of leaking them out in dribs and drabs. It would be much more convenient, don't you think?

 

The big winner (for now) in the whole Ankiel / Glaus / performance-enhancing drugs news cycle?

Barry Bonds.

Other guys are getting lit into by media and fans. They're either not even talking about Bonds for the moment or they're on the verge of saying that Barry deserves a pass on this one since he obviously isn't alone.

Not saying it's right, just saying that's where this is heading . . .

 

This will not end well.

 

People with asthma are given corticosteroids, not anabolic steroids. BIG difference. You can't build muscle mass from corticosteroids.

Corticosteroids are also over-prescribed... but that's a different story.

 

True on both counts....though I believe there have been some cases of positive tests in track and swimming due to asthma medications, leading ot some confusion on the subject.

 

I'd really appreciate it if law enforcement wasn't a sieve.

 

Yup, and Ankiel and Glaus are getting ripped, so there goes the race card that's been played over and over by the Bonds crew.

You cheat, you get skewered. Period.
