I read I Had A Hammer many times, admittedly when I was a kid, I don't remember one sentence about amphetamines. Someone post a link or copy and paste pls.

Turn your book to page 268.

On page 268, Aaron states:

"Actually, the 1968 season wasn’t the best time to present my case. It was the first time since my rookie year that I didn’t drive in or score 100 runs. I was so frustrated that at one point I tried using a pep pill—a greenie—that one of my teammates gave me. When that thing took hold, I thought I was having a heart attack. It was a stupid thing to do…”

redbean, thats it? aaron took one greenie? or is there more evidence and speculation out there?

realize that throughtout this post you intimate that aaron continually used performance enhancers and illegal substances, yet the evidence you refer to says it was a one time thing. further, im not even sure if greenies were illegal then.

it seems you are criticizing aaron in the same way others criticize bonds. i cant take you seriously.
