Rafael Palmeiro suspended for steroids

The guy who adamantly denied it to congress and was all for a zero-tolerance policy. In his defense, he says he never "knowingly" took in a banned substance, but in this climate they are going to be looking for sacrificial lamb to show that they are going to be serious about the roids, and since Barry Bonds is not playing now, and Sammy Sosa is mysteriously shrinking in both home run production and physical size, rafael will fit just fine.

The thing is - how could you not be extraordinarily careful about the supplments you are taking now if you are a pro ballplayer?
He didn't even look like a juicer at least. Sosa, Bonds, Giambi, McGwire - anyone whose seen drugs and their effects firsthand knows there was never a question about those guys being artificial.
