Giambi to Grand Jury, "Yes, I injected steriods."

[hunt]

Whatever.  Yankees have a cheater (not to mention liar) on their team, that makes them cheaters.  Sorry.  If they kick him to the curb, I'll take it back.  Until then: cheaters!

cheaters???    what's next???     "the yankees have cooties!"   

good stuff!

[PhillyGirl]

yankee bashing is okay but a joke about a phillies player is taboo....i think i see where you're coming from. 

hunt, you have to be kidding me. Bringing up steriods and Thome in the same sentence is preposterous. The guy has no definition to his body, he's just a big dude. It has nothing to do with Yanks or Phillies...its has to do with being serious. Don't sit here any accuse a guy who doesn't need to take steriods of doing them.

it was a joke!
you people constantly bash the yankees & their players....i make one joke about thome & you think it's ridiculous???
that couldn't possibly be any more hypocritical...that's my point.

Obviously we were right to be bashing Giambi, weren't we? That's MY point. At least there is substance behind it...LOL

Jeremy Giambi admitted he took the juice too...


So...why'd he suck ass then?

a-HA!  and he was a phillie.

the phillies are cheaters!



and they have cooties too!

If they knew he did, as the Yankees now DO know, then yes, they could be properly called cheaters.  Of course, they did not know it,  and the Yankees do.  Let's see what they do.  Do they hang on to the cheater and stain their pin stripes with another shameful skidmark, or do they fire his ass, as they should.

[hunt]

trust me...they would LOVE to get rid of him.
the problem is....he's under contract for 4 more years & nobody will take on that contract.  if there's a way to void his contract, they'll do it.

Wouldn't he had to have contributed positively in some way to be considered a cheater? He stunk here (and the team stunk too).

They could just fire his ass, no?  What happened to ethics?  It's not convenient for them to rid themselves of a cheater, so they keep him?  Whatever.

you obviously know nothing about baseball and guaranteed contracts.    fire him & still pay him $80 million....sure. 

[Diomedes]

Oh, I see.  So you'd rather have a cheater on your team AND your money.  Now THAT'S ethical.  Great example for the kids.  Do what's right, unless it's hard to do...

who's this scrawny guy?

hmmmmmmmmmm.....    

LOL, yeah, when he was like 19! I know that wink has to mean its a joke, but that's even ridiculous to bring it up.

you're wrong. those cards are from 1992. thome was born in august 1970. making 22 years old. i am not saying thome used or not. i say let these fargers screw with their long term health, it's there choice anyway. but there is a big difference between 19 and 22.

[PhillyGirl]

oh please. There isn't that much of a difference and Thome has never used. I can't even believe this is discussed on here. When a kid comes out of college football at age 22, 19, 20, whatever around that age, they will always get bigger in a professional ballclub's weight training program. Thome is about as much of a steriod user as I am tall. He's just a big dude, period.

he's off the juice now...last year, he was as skinny as that old thome pic...so he's not a "cheater" any more. 

i know you're just trolling as usual but baseball is a business....you don't just fire & guy and pay him $80 mill for nothing.  it's ridiculous.

[Diomedes]

....you don't just fire & guy and pay him $80 mill for nothing. it's ridiculous.

Yeah, nevermind what's right.  Spoken like a true Yankee fan.

[MURP]

The real problem here is Bud Selig and the other owners.  Roids should be made illegal with a first time offense of a permanent ban from baseball, no second chances... and every player should be tested at random multiple times a season.
