I seriously didn't see this one comin either... crazy

But maybe should we give any pro athlete the benefit of the doubt anymore? Thge one that still shocked me was Rafy Palmeiro. NONE OF YOU ****ERS PRETENED YOU KNEW IT ALL ALONG WITH HIM. He wasn't like the other power hitters. He had such a sweet swing and some of the quickest strongest hands in the game. I was still shocked by that.

So maybe no one should get the benefit of the doubt anymore

You can take this how you want but personally knowing Shawne I doubt very seriously he was injecting any steriods, I think he might of been taking a supplement that contained something he should'nt of took,,,but if you knew this young man I don't think he intentionaly cheated thats just one mans opinion but you couldnt asked for a better kid he is a great person and I dont for a second believe he did it knowingly...I'm sure the naysayers will have a field day but if there is a player in the NFL who has given back to his community more then Shawne I would like to meet him..

I can't bash him.

Even if he cheated he seems like a nice kid. My issue with Bonds isn't so much that he cheats but that he's a horrible horrible human being.

I hope Merriman wasn't cheating. But even if he was, it's like Jules said in Pulp Fiction. Personality counts.

Next you are going to tell us Giambi and Sheffield didn't use steroids. There is no way Yankees could be cheaters. LOL.
