heavyduty Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 This is sad to hear. I hope this opens some players eyes as to how dangerous steroids actually are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I saw that too. That's crazy. I went to junior high with one of his nephews. Shows you what roids can do. Very sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan562004 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 This has a chance to get really bad in the next 5-10 years, as far as I can tell a lot of players used steroids, and those things f*** your body up really bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 It wasn't just roids, he got busted for coke all of the time. I think a couple years ago he got busted in a Motel with a couples of whores in possesion of crack. I wanna say it was right after he came out in SI.

Chisoxfn Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 Holy s***. I was always a Cammy fan back in his days with the Padres. It was tough how he had to go through the substance abuse stuff as well as Cokaine. I gotta say this came out of absolutely nowhere. RIP.

YASNY Posted October 11, 2004 Author Share Posted October 11, 2004 He had it all. He made some poor choices and has now paid the ultimate price. It's a shame, but he's not the first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshPR Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I remember Ken for 2 plays 1 was a ball he caught deep in the hole the 3rd and threw a strike to first and 2 was a play he dived and laying down on the floor threw a strike to first nailing the runner by 3 steps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 RIP Ken. But to me this begs the question to everyone who uses this stuff now, is it worth it? Is the guy who is trying to get the big contract going to pay the ultimate price in return for the extra HRs? Hopefully today's young athletes take and learn from this. And hopefully MLB learns from it also, ditches this s***ty testing program, and goes to something like the olympics has where being busted once can result in years worth of suspensions, and forfietures of prizes.

It seems Bud Selig is happy with the way the game's going right now. He won't take anything into consideration to change that, not even the players' health.

southsider2k5 Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 The Player's Association should be held accountable for the current stand on steriods, too. More so than Selig. The players are the ones who are stopping the progress on this issue. The owners want to protect their investments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 The Player's Association should be held accountable for the current stand on steriods, too. Not just roids either. Roids are not even close to as widely used as other drugs. Very sad situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
