Well, of course common sense would tell one to question the ring holders. So why would I question the integrity of that team....come on give use a break, do I need to rattle off a list of SLUGGERS on that team that declined testing?......To the question about "do steroids make you a better player" your joking right? Well, in baseball we have this thing called a "mile high pop fly" which in the old days most would end up being caught by out fielders, but with the power behind steroids those " pop flys" are being launched out of the stadiums!
Those players know who they are, as far as I'm concerned they are spitting on the greats. So **** them all teams who carry them* Cough* barry*Cough* Sammy*Cough* Giamby*Cough*shefield*.......................need I say more ?

Yeah, why don't you rattle them off? The only (grasping at straws) ones you can say are Sheffield and Giambi. And Sheffield wasn't even on the Yankees last year. Bobby Cox, who I think it is safe to say has been around more ball players than you, me and everyone else on this site combined said that Sheff didn't look like the type of guy to use steriods. Not that they even denied it - the union did. That's not to say they can't do what they want, but they are part of a union and have to act in accordance with it.

It is not common sense. It would seem to be anti-Yankee bias, really to name the Yankees in such a post about such a big and general issue as steroids. And the Yankees aren't the "ring holders" and they haven't been for 3 years. That would be the Marlins. If you wanted to go for the year before that - Angels. Year before that? Diamondbacks. So, you are three years off. The Yankees aren't allowed to win, of course - in your book, just every other team in the league, apparently.

I am not going to make a statement on who I think might use steroids or anything of that nature because I have never seen any player use steroids in my life and it would be irresponsible to say anything more on such a sensitive issue, in my opinion.

You're both letting your own delusions run away with you.
First of all Patty Cake, I didn't say have the BS you tried to spin that I said! Let common sense take it's course with you and go back and read.
Olaee, ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....no, I don't know what you mean. Come again.

Exhibit A,from this
Exhibit B,to this BEAST
Exhibit C,to the payed slugger
Exhibit D,slimming down after news of testing(picture taken just a while ago)

Need I present more common sense?

You said all of what I "spun". But, you avoid it. And now you add namecalling to the list... I don't know if that is allowed here, but because of it, I am not going to respond to this topic again. You show photos from when Giambi was basically college age to what... 7 years later when he was in the prime of life and all he has to do is exercise? Taking photos from around the Internet... gee, that really is common sense - you really got me! If he hits 40 homers again this year, I wonder how you will "spin" that.

Anyway, you aren't concerned with being responsible or actually facing issues, just using pretty language to anger/rally people into your view point. So, there is no point in me replying further.
