Did he or didn't he? Any opinions?
Roger has had an amazing career. I've always liked him. A few things that bother me about this is, isn't the trainer paid by the Yankees? Why aren't they being implicated in this? Wasn't Roger drug tested regularly? If he did use steroids or human growth hormones, how was it possible for the tests to come up negative?



I just saw this thread. And I was just reading a little bit out of a book call "Juiced" by Jose Canseco. Jose says Roger did use steroids. He was always a decent pitcher until hisgame started to slow down. Then all of a sudden, his pitching improved.

I think ball players are always going to try to get the edge over the other guy. Steriods is just one way of doing it.

One note about Roger that I thought was cool: According to Jose, he never cheated on his wife!

Don't get me started on Canseco. He retires, THEN he throws everyone else under the bus. I would have been more impressed had he jeapardized his own career along with the others.
