Re: Andy Pettitte admits HGH use

He's admitting to it but only for a couple of days when he was on the DL. It may well be true ... or not ! Put yourself right out there as a one time user and see if they'll forgive and forget.

Pettitte said he tried HGH on two occasions.

"If what I did was an error in judgment on my part, I apologize," Pettitte said Saturday in a statement released by his agent. "I accept responsibility for those two days."




SO does he still think what he did was ok? He doesnt know if was an error in judgement or not?

Re: Andy Pettitte admits HGH use

Yeah, I found that curious as well. He's refusing to admit wrongdoing.

OH YEAH...we have Salem 1692, McCarthyism in the 50's and now the Mitchell Report...

Of course its a witch hunt...if it wasn't, MLB would have dealt with the issue and then told the media...as it is, no one could wait to have a public lynching on ESPN on somethings that are pure hearsay...What would you call that? The Amercian way of doing things?

Re: Andy Pettitte admits HGH use

It's kind of funny. In another thread somewhere it was said that if Barry had just admitted to it we may have forgiven him. Now Andy admits and we still want to hang him. Right or wrong, you're gonna hang. We all hate the media for the way they twist this but as soon as the names appear many have them convicted with zero actual knowledge of who did what and how many times.

I agree a little with Selig that we should just start fresh and dump the past, BUT ....... explain to me first what the new lines in the sand are. If we're going to start fresh then no more going lightly. Set the rules, make the unions agree, make the players sign contracts saying they understand the implications. I know .... no one will agree to all of that !!! So much for square one. See you in court.
