Almost the entire world of sport is filthy. <br /><br />They have cleaned up baseball to a large extent. This year baseball had its first Triple Crown winner in many decades (that’s one player who leads all of baseball with the best batting avg., most home runs, and most runs batted in). The Triple Crown winner had 44 home runs. A monster number, but nothing like the number of home runs that were being hit in a single season when steroid use was so rampant in baseball.<br /><br />But still, today, steroids are being used extensively in tennis, track and field, and swimming. (Does anybody with two brain cells to rub together REALLY believe that Olympic swimmer Dara Torres was/is clean? OK, so she has never tested positive. But neither has Serena Williams. Neither did Lance Armstrong. But when 11 of Armstrong’s former teammates testified that he was dirty, I think we can take that to the bank!) <br /><br />I posted the following paragraph on my ‘STUFFS’ blog back in June of 2008:<br /><br />I’ve got “big” news for ya: a woman cannot acquire a man’s physique and a man cannot acquire The Incredible Hulk’s physique without chemical assistance. (If you believe that Serena Williams comes by that Cassius Clay body naturally, I’ve got the Brooklyn Bridge, the Golden Gate Bridge, and a musical bridge that I can let you have for a song! Anyone wanna place any bets on whether or not that rumor about Lance Armstrong and “artificial assistance” might have a chemically-enhanced leg to stand on?)<br /><br />I’m glad they finally caught Armstrong. Glad they finally caught Barry Bonds. Glad they finally caught Roger Clemens. I wish they could catch them all.<br /><br />~ D-FensDogg<br />‘Loyal American Underground’<br />Stephen T.
