Quite shocked & disappointed!
ReplyDeleteTrue, hes juicin up. There is no room for this sort of thing in baseball, and the yankees seem to violate rules consistently. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE!
ReplyDeleteIt never ceases to amaze me just how stupid people can be! With all that has happened with HGH and other PED in sports, you'd think that at some point even the dumbest of people might figure it out. I am more than disappointed, I'm sickened by it.
ReplyDeleteHow could that washed-up fatass be on HGH?
ReplyDeleteA storm in a teacup...only a rumour, nothing in it.
ReplyDeleteI won't say that Bartolo Colon has been clean, free of PEDS, growth hormones and steroids his whole career, because I don't know.
At some point in time you have to trust the MLB testing policy...if they got Manny, they could get anyone.
Colon is a borderline 5th starter, with a very limited career ahead of him..the allegation is not worth considering, unless it comes with coroborating evidence.
This explains why he is averaging 1 strike an inning. He's only done this once in his career! He's 37 years old and getting better? GUILTY! Dr. Purita who did whatever procedure on Colon has used HGH on all of his patients except for COLON? yea right...
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts? Somehow I think people are going to simply forget this part: "treated Colon in April 2010 with a technique that used fat and bone marrow stem cells. The Times said Colon was injected in his elbow and shoulder."
ReplyDeleteIn April 2010 he didn't play but had a contract with the White Sox, but my thoughts are people are going to say "figures, steroids on the Yankees"
I do not blame him. He is not a Hall of Famer anyways and if he did not do he would have no job.
ReplyDeleteI think these pitchers who say that Colon is "guilty" (even though they all seem to get thumbs up), need to actually read the story and take their anti-Yankee bias out of it. Colon is not being accused of taking HGH, but had a surgery performed by a doctor who has been linked to HGH in the past. It sounds shady especially when you consider that George Mitchell ruined the Yankees in his joke of a "report" (and failed to write that Manny and Ortiz of his beloved Red Sox failed drug tests in 2003).
ReplyDeleteYeah, I like how you write "Yankee pitcher" Bartolon Colon, that's sure to get the Yankee haters on your side. If Mitchell had actually done a real report, he would have found that there were steroid/HGH users in Kansas City, Houston, San Diego, Los Angeles, Seattle, and everywhere else. It sounds great to Yankee haters to read that "22 Yankees were named in the Mitchell Report", even though some barely played for the team, like Dan Naulty and Bobby Estalella.
BTW, he wasn't even a "Yankee pitcher" when he had the surgery anyway, was he?
I personally believe hes on the old school HGH... Hotdogs, Grilled Cheese, and Hamburgers
ReplyDeletethat fat slob is all done anyways who cares
ReplyDeleteI would hope that if he was using HGH he would be less of a tremendous fat ass than he is.
ReplyDeleteWell, if MLB finds he used HGH in the procedure, he'll be suspended. If he didn't use HGH, then he didn't violate any rules. From what I can tell, the entire procedure was sucking fat and bone marrow out of one place in his body and putting it somewhere else.
ReplyDeleteIf he'd gotten fat sucked out of his stomach and put in his lips to 'look pretty,' no one would be saying anything.
Well, actually they would, because what guy does that?
I think someone will be paid allot of money here to keep his mouth shut, the Yankees have done that before.
