I use whatever I need to make my stick hard, so I can use my bat more effectively. The heck with Viagra, I go for the good stuff such as Mycoxafloppin, Mydixadrupin, and if these cause a headache, I pop the Ibepokin.
Drugs of one sort or another have been part of sports longer than we've been alive. So to an extent, many records have been tainted for a long long time.

does anyone really care? I don't. They could inject whatever they want, in fact I encourage it, as long as they hit homers.

While I am not a fan of those who use these drugs I will give him credit for being man enough to own up to it. Not like some of the others out there!
Life's what you make it.

Who the hell are these people who think he owned up to it? Did you really see the whole interiew? He was being completely evasive the whole time. He didn't know what drugs? Who gave it to him? When exactly he took them? Fucking come on! He "owned up" because he's seeing Roger, Bonds, and Palmero about to get their fucking asses handed to them by the Feds. Jesus Christ people! He's still lying through his teeth.

I agree but not about the Feds. Bonds, Palmeiro, Clemens and Tejada have all testified under oath that they didn't use steroids and it has become obvious that they lied under oath. In step the Feds.
I don't believe that A-Rod ever gave any testimony so he doesn't face the same ramifications.
However, look at what happened with Giambi, LoDuca and Petitte. They were caught, they owned up to it and their "sins" have rarely been brought up again. Granted, A-Rod is a much bigger story because of his extraordinary career to date, but his choice was rather easy. Admit your guilt, give some well-rehearsed apology, try to seem genuinely contrite and maybe the issue goes away. Not a tough decision if you ask me.
We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

Agreed. He is simply trying to save himself from the boo birds.

Another player to put an asterisk beside their stats...
I've always found him to be an arrogant scumbag, hopefully this costs him an induction into the Hall Of Fame.
Harsh? Maybe.
