[ QUOTE ]
Compliment to the "Your favorite players who may have been on steroids" thread. Who would you put an even money bet on that didn't use 'roids? IMO, the one guy that I would bet on without any thought is Frank Thomas. [/ QUOTE ] Is it favorite athlete or favorite playa? Either way, I've gotta go with Don Knotts. |

Ryan Howard. Fastest player ever to 100 HR by like 50 games.

Jim Thome [/ QUOTE ] lol. Really? Just because his nick is "Country Strength" doesn't mean he isn't country strength with steroids. If my life depended on it, and I had to guess, I'd say yes, he'd done steroids at some point in his career. FWIW...Jim Thome, age 18 |

[/ QUOTE ] I'm not sure why, but he's always the first player I think of when someone says "name a HR hitter who hasn't used steroids". I think it's because of his build (he's not cut like a lot of the accused, he's just kind of big and doughy looking). Plus he just swings hard and strikes out a lot like your good old fashioned power hitter. I may be wrong, but I just don't think of him as a juicer. |

Among the good players, Ken Griffey Junior.
Basis of argument: His performance is declining with age in an "expected" traditional fashion. |

Bonds, McGwire, and Sosa were skinny little kids when they came up and...oh yeah. |
