ckcsaber Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Well, I'm not suprised. Actually most people who watch baseball shouldn't be suprised... link Looks like he got the drugs from Bond's personal dealer. You got to love the situation the Yankees are in, though. Giambi's got 76 MILLION dollars left on his contract, and he just had a horrible year because the league began a steroid testing program. Look at the Yankee pride now. They're going to have a 90 million hunk of crap rotting on their team for years to come. And now, your moment of zen. Giambi in 2001, all roid'd up Giambi in his rookie year, Gumby's stunt double.

Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 As if it was shocking, people just never liked to discuss it until a few years ago. Sadly it was at one point the only way to get into a profesional sport. It just shows to go ya that people will always find a way to cheat...

Pedantic Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 While this certainly isn't a surprise, I do find it disappointing. Hopefully this causes some players to finally come clean about their usage (Bret Boone, we're looking at you). I'm just glad that pitchers don't use steroids (or, if they do, they'd be stupid to).

ET Warrior Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I wish the league would strip him of his MVP award last year. They probably won't, but I think they should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just watched a commentary on SC predicting Bonds passing Babe Ruth's record + admitting/caught of using steroids = PR disaster for the MLB.

Spider AL Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Pfft, steroids. "I know, let's grow bags of useless water under our skin and pretend they're powarfol MUSCALS!!!111" Pathetic people with self-image problems. You want a power physique? Look at a Thai boxer. Or a classical wrestler. THAT'S what muscle looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBell Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Originally posted by Spider AL Pathetic people with self-image problems. Athletes dont take steriods for their image. That's why they call the ones used by Barry Bonds and Jason Giambi "Proformance enhancing drugs" not "Look big and muscular for the public drugs" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taos Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 No real surprises here. I figure that it caused his health problems he went through during the season. I just hope he doesn't end up like Lyle Azado or Ken Caminiti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 yeah, that Giambi was always on a one way road to self destruction He shouldve stopped hangin around with prickle, goo and pokey, and spent less time chasing the blockheads He looks much leaner too, in this early photo mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why Barry Bonds and Giambi still should get some credit for their achievements, as taking steroids doesn't make you faster, doesnt make you quicker, doesnt make you see the ball more clearly. It just gives you a better swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you are standing there stiff and always keeping alert. You have to be able to react from that stiff position (don't do it astro). And make that big play. I hate it when people accuse baseball players of not being as atheletic as other sports players. And yeah, roids only make your swing more powerful.

Then again, so is taking a 300 pound beheameth of a man to the ground, getting back up and doing that 20 or 30 times a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
