The Cream and the Clear!

Wow! BALCO and Victor Conte sure did set the sports world on its ear and not in a good way.

So under oath in a Federal Grand Jury...

Jason Giambi admited he took steroids and other performance enhancing drugs. Guess that explains the mystery illness.

Gary Sheffield admitted he used the Cream, a steriod cream, but claimed he didn't know what it was... yeah right.

Marion Jones testified that she didn't use performance enhancing drugs despite the exact same records that led Jason, Gary and Barry to confess. Me thinks she is lying.

But greatest of all is Barry Bond's confession. He admitted to using the Clear, a liquid steroid, and the Cream, but insisted he didn't know what it was. Yeah right Barry. Let me get this right... your trainer told you to use the stuff and you just used it without question? Then when your head began to grow and you suddenly began gaining strength and size like when Popeye eats Spinich, you didn't question why? Yeah, I believe that. Barry, you are a Liar!

By admiting that he used performance enhancing drugs, the 73 HRs hit in 2001 should drop out of the Record Books. Hammerin' Hank's 755 will not be touched. And Barrry will never see the inside of Cooperstown.

But I guess in the end, just like Lyle Alzado and Ken Caminiti, these cheaters will get theirs. Hopefully the instant fame and money is worth the shortened life span.
