CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) Said it was him and his cousin , no one else. Took something with a street name of "boley" as best as I can make out what he said. His cousin didn't distribute it to anyone else. He was young and stupid. Said it was over the counter stuff. Not even sure if he and his cousin took it the right way. Says it was injected. Edited February 17, 2009 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Feb 17, 2009 -> 11:00 AM) Is he crying? Theres no crying in baseball. He looked like he was about to cry when he was about to address his teammates to took a really long pause maybe a minute or 2 , took a swig of water then said just "thanks" and sort of just slumped back into his chair.

SoxFan562004 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I have no interest in this press conference, if I wanted to be lied to I would go to a strip club with a fistfull of $20's... Also, the "young" excuse doesn't fly for me he was in MLB for something like 5-7 years and he had a $250m contract, if you want big boy money and responsabilities you have to play by big boy rules.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) Overall impression is that he's being as honest as he can be. Basically he's saying he was just clueless, he had a neck injury and decided to stop. I would ask him what the real name of this "boley" is . Sounds short for bolic or anabolic. No ones asked him if he knows what is actually was yet. Edited February 18, 2009 by CaliSoxFanViaSWside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hired a PR firm, this was all planned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I thought he did as good as he probably could. He sounded a little too much like McGuire with the lets move forward stuff. Couldve left a bit of that out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Gleason Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 He didn't know what he was doing, or how to take it correctly??? Aren't there high school students supposedly using this crap? How does a high school student know what he is doing, but a multi-millionaire in the friggin' major leagues, who has probably see the stuff around for YEARS not know what the heck is going on??? So he is either a complete moron for not knowing what he was doing, or he is a complete moron for knowing what he was doing and a liar. No matter what, he is a complete moron.

nitetrain8601 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 He really froze up when asked if he thinks he shouldn't be in the record books or allowed to receive money if he breaks the HR record. Also, when asked wouldn't he feel more pressure playing for the Yankees than for Texas. He was a lot like Mark McGwire at this press conference.
