So when did the baseball steroid era start in your opinion?

definitely acid, not coke. dock thought he had an off day and dosed, then arrived at the ballpark to find out it was his day to pitch, and it was too late to turn back...

My Gawd that makes me ill.
 
can anyone find a pic of McGwire at USC? i have an Olympic baseball card of him...tall and nothing but bones (if i remember correctly)
 
McGwire had a frame in college that would support the muscle he eventually added. Sure the steroids helped, but he was going to be a big man. Barry Bonds went way past what you would have expected from his frame or his father's mature size.
 
agreed on both McGwire and Bonds
 
WTF is Tejada doing getting suspended for amphetamines? Amphetamines are dangerous - you do a little much and you can get a shaking nervous attack. You get a little tired or down, sure have a few cups of coffee, tee or diet coke. But I don't get how screwing around with amphetamines helps you performance.

There are a lot of studies that show low doses of amphetamine can help psychomotor performance. However, too much will lead to impairment as well as an impairing crash from exhaustion. I would not recommend recreational use.
 
Tejada was caught using Adderall, the ADHD medication. It is used by a number of baseball players, but they need to get a medical exception from the MLB.
