Steroids And David Justice; Tom Glavine To Work For Braves

There is no report that says that Justice accepted or was even offered steroids. Period. Have you even read the Mitchell Report? I quote the relevant section right here:

"Radomski said he made one sale to Justice, which occurred after the 2000 World Series. Justice played for the Yankees that year. Justice paid Radomski by check for two or three kits of human growth hormone. Radomski said that he cashed this check.

Brian McNamee recalled that Justice asked him about human growth hormone in 2000 or 2001, while McNamee and Justice were both with the Yankees. According to
McNamee, Justice admitted in this conversation that he had obtained human growth hormone from Radomski.
We interviewed David Justice before we had knowledge of the Radomski and McNamee allegations."

Can you tell me where steroids fits into this?

I'm not sure I understand what your problem is. I have read the Mitchell Report and I have read Radomski's ridiculous book and the only references you will find to David Justice and steroids are those made by uneducated fans who are also convinced he beat Halle Berry, despite all evidence and her statements to the contrary.

I have no personal problem with you. I do, however, resent you furthering this half-truth and confusing the facts with the truth. Justice is accused of using HGH. Not steroids. This is part of the bigger issue of performance-enhancing drugs in professional sports, which has become known colloquially as steroids.

Actual steroids, like, say the substance Mark McGwire has confessed to using, are very different in design and function to HGH, and though you might think that is an unnecessary distinction, I think it's the least we can do to be accurate when we accuse someone of something.

This is just one link right? From the Cleveland Leader? The word steroids is in the headline, but you'll notice in the article they mention 'performance enhancement drugs'. They lump HGH in with steroids, which is the same mistake you are making.

The article you cite as an example talks about Radomski, whose own book Bases Loaded tells his account of a transaction with Justice, dealing only with HGH not steroids.

Who accused him of steroid use? Not the Mitchell Report. Not Radomski or Brian McNamee, not MLB or any team he played on. Can you show me a link, a quote, anything sourced that suggests he was accused of steroid use?

That's not right. He was accused of steroid use, too. I am not saying he did it, but if he did use HGH or steroids, he should just admit it.

Justice hasn't been accused of using steroids, one-time Yankees trainer Kirk Radomski claims he sold Justice a kit of HGH in 2001. Justice claims he was interested until he discovered it required injecting the substance, and he declined.

Human Growth Hormone, while now banned by MLB, is not a steroid. It has been linked to helping other players return from injury, perhaps most notably Andy Pettite.

Of course, Radomski was facing serious time for supplying professional athletes with illegal substances and pointed the finger at Justice and several other ballplayers under the condition of immunity. That and the fact that several of his statements have been refuted or discredited by the Mitchell Report, have made much of his testimony suspect.

Check the Mitchell Report itself: David Justice's entry is entirely based on the testimony of Radomski who said Justice paid by check, yet even with dozens of cancelled checks in the report itself, David Justice’s was not found or included in the report.

I wouldn't expect an admission from Justice since it seems the allegations are based on anything but fact.
