Bonds, Giambi, others subpoenaed in steroid investigation

The threadjack was more fun.

Agreed. I was trying to find a hot Japanese tennis player to post a picture of, thereby melding the two threadjacks together, but it was harder than I thought and I need to go to bed anyway. Continue the threadjack for me Arrian or, god forbid, actually post on-topic. I'll be back in about 6 hours.

Oh well, I think we can let this one die a natural death. Sleep well.

I was of cource just thinking along the line of the (successful) mix of drugs and sports.

[Kropotkin]

And by all means, post pics of asian girls if you like. I think tungsten will like that. He has the japanese flag after all.

you can't stop the doping

I just say let the athletes use as many drugs as they want

that would make things interesting- though injureis would be up and old records would be meaningless.

and small testicles would also be up

I actually wouldn't care if they allowed doping, as long as they came clean about it. I'd also want them to set up a new record book; it just isn't fair to the old school players for their records to be broken by steroid abusers.

I agree. Roger Maris' record should still be standing.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Yeah but in the days of Maris and Mantle they took amphetamines like they were candy and some in the early sixties were already taking anabolic steroids.

Yep, exactly right, vlad. People like to think Mantle and Mays and people of that era were 100% clean, but they were popping pills just as much as the players today. The only difference is that the pills today are probably more effective.

I wouldn't be suprised if the Babe was on some **** as well.

[Dis]

don't be badmouthing the babe. the only thing he was on was chocalate and alcohol

[Drake Tungsten]

Oh, the Babe was on plenty of ****. The difference is that none of the stuff he was ingesting was performance enhancing.

Oh, I wouldn't be so sure of that. Of course, none of the supposed performance enhancing stuff players back then were taken (a lot of it didn't really have the effect, it was just superstition they did) were illegal at the time.

I was referring to booze, recreational drugs and sandwiches.

Bonds is not a target of the grand jury investigation, according to his lawyer. If this is true and not just lawyer spin, then it gets a big from me.

The british sprinter Dwain Chambers have been found to have used THG so now also people in Great Britain has a right to say something in this thread, I guess.
