I bought Andy's story. Actually, I expect there will be more with the same line. I have a couple of friends who've used "stuff" to recover faster from injuries. If weekend warriors were doing it I wouldn't be surprised if many pros have done the same.

I went with David Justice since I think he's the only one telling the truth. I don't believe Pettitte/Roberts would have actually gone so far as to purchase these substances then suddenly decide AFTER using them once or twice that they don't want them. It's a massive leap to go from non-user to user and you can bet they didn't take it lightly. It wasn't a decision made on a whim and I can't believe they weren't absolutely convinced of the benefits of using the drugs before buying them.

David Justice came out and told the truth about his steroid use and his story is the only plausible one on the list.

And what's so different about Pettitte's excuse from Vina's? Or Gary Bennett's? They are all saying the same thing. Rehabbing injury, was willing to try anything. Well, it wasn't banned at the time. Never used again. Sorry to cause any bother.

Not that its fair or relevant Pettitte will get the benefit of the doubt because he always seemed like a good-guy.

I believe Andy is a born-again Christian type who is married to a girl he met in grade 9, spends his time in the off-season hunting, and gets around in a pick-up truck.  

If it is shown that he was a long-time user it'll be tough to believe any of these millionaires.

I can't believe how many people are eating up that Andy Pettitte crap!

So far, Paul Byrd's is the only one I've bought.
