i think more players are going to start to confess now...

At the end of the day, Ken Griffey Jr. goes up my list as far as guys who I not only respect, but admire for getting by on natural ability and talent.
cosign

What David Justice was saying yesterday made a lot of sense....if you didn't do it, COME OUT AND SAY IT!!!

I don't buy these apologies...you all may say "well, it's good that AP confessed," but if this Mitchell report never came out, his lips would have stayed zipped. He knew what he was doing from the jump.
Exactly DoubleJs.

read this BS from Pettitte.

"If what I did was an error in judgment on my part, I apologize," Pettitte said Saturday in a statement released by his agent. "I accept responsibility for those two days."


"In 2002 I was injured. I had heard that human growth hormone could promote faster healing for my elbow," Pettitte said in the statement released to The Associated Press by agent Randy Hendricks.

"I felt an obligation to get back to my team as soon as possible. For this reason, and only this reason, for two days I tried human growth hormone. Though it was not against baseball rules, I was not comfortable with what I was doing, so I stopped.

"This is it -- two days out of my life; two days out of my entire career, when I was injured and on the disabled list," he said. "I wasn't looking for an edge. I was looking to heal."

Pettitte was not linked to steroids in the report, and said he never had never used them.

"I have the utmost respect for baseball and have always tried to live my life in a way that would be honorable," he said. "If I have let down people that care about me, I am sorry, but I hope that you will listen to me carefully and understand that two days of perhaps bad judgment should not ruin a lifetime of hard work and dedication.

"I have tried to do things the right way my entire life, and, again, ask that you put those two days in the proper context. People that know me will know that what I say is true," he said.

"if" and "perhaps".....what a bunch of garbage.

"I felt an obligation to get back to my team as soon as possible. For this reason, and only this reason, for two days I tried human growthhormone."....

"I wasn't looking for an edge. I was looking to heal."....noooo, you were looking to "heal" faster, which is an edge, Andy.

spare me.
