Rafael Palmeiro is an idiot. In March he empathically stated, during a Congressional hearing while under oath, "I NEVER took steroids." Now he tests positive for taking... steroids. Does he own up and apologize? No. He amends his statement to read, "I never INTENTIONALLY took steroids." Right, because he just happened to slip and fall on a needle. But this wasn't just any steroid that can be found in many medications. Word leaked out that it's one of the most serious kind of steroids out there, akin to what Ben Johnson took in the 1988 Olympics. So does Palmeiro own up and apologize? No! His agent instead blasts Major League Baseball for leaking what kind of steroid it was. Like I said, Rafael Palmeiro is an idiot and if he thought his 500 home runs and 3000 hits assured him a spot in the Hall of Fame, I think he can now forget it.
