SPORTS FIGURE LIES BEFORE CONGRESS? SAY IT AIN'T SO!
Monday, August 01, 2005
Way to send out a message to your youthful fans.Rafael Palmeiro of the Baltimore Orioles stated emphatically back in March, before a Congressional panel, that he did not use steroids. Now, he has added a caveat: "Today I am telling the truth again that I did not do this intentionally or knowingly." Well, what a shame that someone kids might lookup to as a great athlete lies about drug use. What's worse is that the athlete felt that he needed to use dope to enhance his already present skills. Because of the caveat one might believe that someone snuck a hypodermic needle into Raffy's skin, or maybe a pill into his filet mignon? I doubt it.
Perhaps at one time, this guy was on his way to the Hall of Fame. Now, not so much. Way to go Birds, way to go.
