More doping stuff... Can't Post

but this time, it's a...tennis player (and a retired tennis player actually).
Andre Agassi has an autobiography coming out, where he admits having used drugs in 1997...

I thought I'd post that here. For once that it's not a cyclist :)
(although I've read that Agassi has a bike).

Crystal Meth: the drug of choice for white trash like him.

its intersting how someone can be an extremely accomplish human being, but because of one flaw, he is then white trash to you.

Maybe that's why he played poorly in 1997...
As for the comment about Agassi being white trash, it's funny, given he is half iranian/armenian...Lance on the other hand...

That was a pretty weak effort to drag Lance into this thread.

Lame.

Agassi has always been white trash. He's from Vegas, do I need to say more?

i don't even really know what you are getting at. Sounds like a way to pretend you are better than a guy who had talent, worked hard, and made an amazing career out of it, because you didn't happen to do this particular drug.

Yup.

Everyone knows that tennis is the "working mans'" sport.

I guess white trash sticks together...

He's not my God.

Some of you guys are the ones that constantly bring Lance into everything. Why don't you bring up Barry Bonds or Mark McGwire for a change since you're bringing up past history. Move on. Let your "Lance did it" obsession go. It's not healthy.

Also read about the book about Agassi on the internet. Well, I am not really shocked or surprised. I am quite sure that a lot of popular sportsmen took drugs during the career (I don't speak of doping). They also have to get used to the success and the media, just like rock or movie stars.

Because members of Slowtwitch aren't interested in baseball? They probably don't talk about Lance at Baseball Forum, if it makes you feel better.

Re: More doping stuff... [Francois] [In reply to] Can't Post

The bigger question, IMO, is why is the ATP letting players off for doping violations when they use the excuse 'unwittingly' or 'inadvertently'? Gasquet's excuse of a cocaine positive by kissing a woman at nightclub reminds me of Baumann's toothpaste excuse...

Can't be true. Everyone knows that Americans don't use drugs.....

I don't think most ST'r's are intested in tennis either. Read the original post. The OP started a post about a tennis player and doping. Of course, a Lance hater chimes in.

The OP and the Lance Hater are the same in this case... ;-)
And for your info, I don't hate lance...I just think he doped like everybody else...
That's your 'defense' each time 'oh you lance hater'...you guys crack me up really...Lance didn't dope but kicked everybody's ass for 7 years straight, they were all on the juice but him...yeah right ;-)

Yawn... Zzzzzz

Only guy bringing up Lance in this thread is you. Whatever, Lance hater. For something more current, why don't you go read the freshly posted thread about the Hoyts?
