How Steroids Altered the Fate of Baseball and The Cubs
2011-04-09 19:25:00 Manny Ramirez's abrupt retirement serves as a grim reminder of the impact steroids and other performance enhancing drugs have changed the game. Current Cub pitcher Sean Marshall openly mused about the series changing home run he gave up to Ramirez in the 2008 playoff series. The implication is this: If baseball had cracked down on steroid use earlier, would Manny have ever been around to hit that home run? Did he and his use of steroids alter the course of Cubs history? This isn't an excuse as to why the Cubs lost, nor will this be a morality piece about whether using steroids is right or wrong. People will have their opinions on steroids, but the fact is that whenever...

Are Chicago cops on steroids?
2010-12-15 19:10:00 An investigation by the New Jersey's The Star Ledger recently revealed rampant steroid use among police officers there, prescribed by a unethical physician looking to make a quick buck. When that doctor died because of side effects from his own steroid use, people started to take notice.But it's not just this doctor or just New Jersey. Steroid use is a big problem in law enforcement, according to the investigation."I really believe if it's not the most commonly abused drug in law enforcement, it's damn close," said Larry Gaines, chairman of the criminal justice department at California State University.More at chicagoreporter.com...
Elite / Professional / Olympic Athletes And Steroids Go Back A Ways
2010-08-30 14:00:00 All the current news devoted to MLB players Roger Clemens and Alex Rodriquez, Tour de France riders Floyd Landis and (alleged drug user) Lance Armstrong, and rookie NFL player Brian Cushing, would seem to indicate that steroid and performance-enhancing drug usage is a more recent phenomena. At least that is what one might think based on the media attention given to these stories, especially when comparing it to what was readily available about high profile athletes of many decades past.

A preliminary report from the Dallas County medical examiner Friday found that Mr. Jacobs shot himself in the stomach and the head. Authorities also said his on-again, off-again girlfriend, professional fitness competitor Amanda Jo Earhart-Savell, died apparently after she was shot multiple times. A Glock .40-caliber semi-automatic gun lay next to Mr. Jacobs where both bodies were found early Thursday in the master bedroom of his Plano home.

Barry Bonds Pleads Not Guilty to Lying About Steroids Use
2008-06-06 23:26:00 Barry Bonds, Major League Baseball's home-run record holder, pleaded innocent today to renewed charges that he lied to a grand jury about taking steroids and obstructed a federal steroids probe.The former San Francisco Giant appeared today in San Francisco federal court with his lawyers for a second time in six months to answer criminal charges in a U.S. probe into steroid use among athletes. In his first appearance, in December, Bonds pleaded not guilty to an indictment accusing him of four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice. Prosecutors filed a new indictment last month charging Bonds with making 14 false statements and obstructing justice after a judge said the first set of charges were flawed. "Not guilty to each count,'' Allen Ruby, Bonds's attorney, told U.S. Magistrate Judge Bernard Zimmerman at a two-minute hearing today in San Francisco. Bonds said only "Yes'' when asked if he would appear at a hearing later today before U.S. District Judge Susa...

Sex and the City - chickflick on steroids

Well, generally, if you don’t like shopping, shoes, girl talk or New York City, don’t go. I loved it. But i was it’s exact audience. And while they know they’re alienating the entire non-gay male audience, they also know that chances are, most girls will go twice. I wanted to know what happened to the girls. I wanted to know if Big and Carrie would make it. I even wanted to know if Samantha and Smith forever was possible. So this didn’t disappoint. It was as shallow and girlie as i could have wished for. I turned my brain off, sat back, and lapped it up. I am in love with New York, so any movie that makes the city a character, i’m all for. While i don’t exactly relate to any one girl, because i think each of them is actually 1 type of stereotype, the tr...

Muscletech Fires Christian Boeving for Talking About Anabolic Steroids
2008-04-28 20:37:00 Filmmaker Christopher Bell interviewed his good friend Muscletech spokesperson Christian Boeving about anabolic steroids for the critically acclaimed documentary “Bigger Stronger Faster”. Boeving spoke honestly about his use of anabolic steroids. When CNN aired excerpts from the documentary shortly after its screening at the Sundance Film Festival, Muscletech released the bodybuilding and fitness model from his contract.Muscletech apparently has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to steroids. You certainly can’t talk about steroids if you are sponsored by Muscletech. Muscletech allows you to publicly talk about quite a few things (like masturbating to Christina Lindley’s Maxim photo spread, making multiple references to Lindley’s ample breasts or alluding to Lindlay and microphone fellatio while interviewing Christina Lindley) without consequence, but talking about steroids publicly crosses the line. Such a public admission of steroid use might indicate to consumers tha...

Canseco's dealer said he never gave A-Rod steroids

But in a story posted Friday on Sports Illustrated's Web site, the magazine says it found "Max" — real name, Joseph Dion — and he says he never gave Rodriguez steroids according to an account in the New York Daily News."That's really, really funny because I am the one person that hates steroids," Dion told the magazine. "I'm against it 100%. And A-Rod, at the time that I trained him - and this I swear to God - was 100% against steroids. He was one of the hardest-working guys, and most natural guy, that I've met in my life. He hated steroids. We talked about it."

At Least It's Not Steroids
2008-04-18 06:55:00 Just in case you were getting sick of the performance enhancing drugs witch hunt that has been tumbling out of control over the past few seasons, Miguel Tejada has singlehandedly kicked off a new one. In case you haven't heard, it was recently discovered that Tejada was born in 1974, rather than the 1976 that has been listed in MLB media guides throughout his career. Tejada will turn 34 in May.If you recall, a similar thing happened with current Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez. He was thought to have been born in 1969, but now the common belief is that he was born four years prior. Some reports have him being born as early as 1957.Since Tejada's case isn't the first of it's kind, bold acquisitions are being made and fingers are being pointed. Some of the bigger names that have been accused of providing a false age are David Ortiz, Albert Pujols, and Andruw Jones. Ortiz and Pujols are more believable to me, though, as Jones would have been younger than 19 years old when he popped ...
