Just to play devil's advocate. How do you know he's not on roids?

This is the problem with baseball right now, and the technology of the drugs in general. I'll start by saying i'm a big (not like redskins level) but a solid St. Louis Cardinals fan, and Pujols is my favorite player to watch. He has gone on record as saying "Baseball can test me every single day if they want too". Now I belive Pujols when he makes that statement and I do think he is doing this naturally. But with the technology that we have today in medication, its very possible that someone has come up with a performance enhancing drug that is undetectable right now. As much as people think we are going to "get out" of the steroids era, I really dont think we can. Theres just too much technology and as long as someone can come up with an undetectable drug there will be people to take it. Again, thats not at Pujols, as I think he's clean. But as for the sport in general, I think its going to take more than what they have already established to rid the sport of steroids.

Because I have absolutely positively no reason to believe that he is. I guess nobody knows for sure, in the truest sense of the word. But I'm all about innocent until I hear something that convinces me otherwise.

Just to clarify. I don't believe he is. I was just getting at how it's so hard to know who to trust these days in the sport. Never did I think Palmeiro was using and then that he would blame it on a teammate.

You're right, it can be hard to trust players. But I refuse to let some bad apples spoil the whole bunch for me. If we start suspecting guys like Albert Pujols, who has not shown a shred of evidence regarding steroids, then we're pretty much losing faith in baseball altogether. To me it's still a great game with a lot of great, stand-up guys playing it.

I'm not saying steroids isn't a major problem in baseball. But just because other HR kings have taken them, I'm not going to burden Albert Pujols with their suspicion. It's not fair to him.

If you're a baseball star, the media is going to investigate you. So if Albert Pujols is on 'roids, I have no doubt that one day it will be discovered. The guys from the SF Chronicle did some amazing digging to out Barry Bonds. McGwire was hounded until he all but admitted to a reporter that he knowingly took something more than just Andro. Raffy was even discovered. And the media will leave no stone unturned in checking on guys like Pujols and ARod. If those guys are on 'roids, we'll find out one day. There's no way a superstar can get away with it these days, not with all the media attention and investigation. So until I hear some evidence, I'm assuming Pujols is clean.

I give an A+ to girls who can maintain abs. For some reason it seems like girls have to work three times as hard to get the six pack as guys do.

TheMalcolmConnection · 05-23-2006, 09:49 AM

Even though I prefer that girls have the two two-liters (like the pic above), rather than a six pack.

AMD - absolutely. what are they gonna do...tell you to remove it?

sidenote: go to eitmonline.com for an updated pic of Christie and Chris Cooley...if you don't mind Flounder ruining the picture.

Yes, Tom Watson is a class act...and it helps that he's a fraternity brother.

TheMalcolmConnection · 05-23-2006, 10:04 AM

WOW. Christie is hot as shit.

I know, right. There's a reason she was the only cheerleader in Maxim two years in a row, she was a fan fav. Stinkin Cooley got her kicked off the squad... so not cool.

TheMalcolmConnection · 05-23-2006, 10:12 AM

It takes two to tango sir.

TheMalcolmConnection · 05-23-2006, 10:13 AM

Cooley can't help it if he's an irresistable force of nature to the ladies.

I think that picture just gave the old guy in my office a heart attack, but at least he had a smile on his face.

Who's jersey is that? Springs? (I just wanted to post it again)
