Even if you look like Christian Gee, Vince Taylor or Schwarzenegger at his peak, you’re not going to be all women’s dream, if you have no idea, how to behave with them and what they are fond of. Women like you being nice with them, attentive to them, they want you to make court to them. But would it be a reliable tip to do all this to be also liked by them? Maybe, you already know, that being too nice with women won’t make you be a success with them. Sounds like a paradox? No, because there should be…

Anabolic steroids are often associated with a strong and muscular physic of a man. But strange as it may seem, steroids may have pretty tragic side effects on the male reproductive system, overall health and appearance, such as growth of the breasts, which surely doesn’t make a man look like a real man, or even erectile dysfunction, which for many sufferers means the end of their masculinity. Lots of people know the myth, that bodybuilders are sexual impotents. But is it just a myth? Or is this belief somehow based on reality? And what about the impact of anabolic steroids…

Major League Baseball and the Player’s Association have once again agreed to amend MLB’s Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program. Most of the changes are derived from recommendations put forth by Senator George Mitchell in the Mitchell Report. The most glaring omission was the refusal to turn over testing to an independent outside agency. Instead the sides agreed that the “Independent Program Administrator” (a position created in November 2005) “will be given an initial three-year term and can be removed only if an arbitrator finds cause.” The IPA could be removed by either MLB of the union at any time…

Jose Canseco’s new book, Vindicated: Big Names, Big Liars, and the Battle to Save Baseball, was officially released on April 1, 2008. There were very few surprises after Joe Lavin acquired and wrote about the book on March 25. For the most part, the book chronicles Canseco’s life since Juiced was published in 2005. It describes the book tour (for Juiced, of course), the Mitchell Report, the 2005 Congressional Hearings and various anecdotes along the way. As far as players Canseco discussed, Alex Rodriguez, Magglio Ordonez, Roger Clemens, Rafael Palmeiro and Barry Bonds featured prominently (details for each player below).…

Firstly, on July 17, Canseco implied that he had information about Alex Rodriguez that would be in his next book during a radio interview on WEEI. “He will definitely be in the book. You’ll…

The New York Times is reporting that the United States attorney’s office for the Northern District of California is investigating whether or not Dr. Ramon Scruggs illegally prescribed performance-enhancing drugs to patients including some Major League Baseball players. Scruggs was implicated in the Albany based investigation into the distribution of anabolic steroids and human growth hormone over the internet. As detailed previously at this site and in the Mitchell Report, Scruggs is said to have prescribed anabolic steroids to Troy Glaus and Scott Schoeneweis in 2003 and 2004. Citing “three lawyers who have been briefed on the investigation,” the Times…

More and more prominent players are coming forward saying they support blood testing in Major League Baseball. Some were even in favor of giving samples to be frozen until a reliable human growth hormone test is available. Both MLB Commissioner, Bud Selig, and Players Association president, Don Fehr, have said they will consider such a test when one becomes available. There is currently no commercially available/reliable test for human growth hormone, but one appears on the way soon. The World Anti-Doping Agency recently said that an effective blood test for hGH would be in place for the Beijing Olympics. Athletes…

At a hearing in U.S. District Court in San Francisco, Judge Susan Illston ruled that the indictment put forth by the government was vague and needed to be redrafted. In the course of the hearing the judge also ordered that the full transcript of Bonds’ 2003 grand jury testimony be unsealed. Judge Illston ruled that the indictment need not contain multiple statements that the government believes are lies for each of the 5 counts of perjury and obstruction of justice against Bonds. The indictment cited 19 different occasions where Bonds is accused of lying divided among the five counts. The…
