Very true. But what do you think they are going to do about it? Isn't it a little late to take action? He was honest about it so I dont really think there is a problem. Andy Petitte(?) told the truth about HGH and he's still pitching for the Yanks. IMO, no harm done.

I know what you're saying. When I said this story amazes me I just meant that I find it very very interesting. From what I've seen and read the last couple of days, this is a fairly common practice for Dominican players. What gets me though is why didn't he admit to this a lot sooner if it's not that big of a deal?

After a little while, I'd say he almost forgot he did it. But no big deal.

Well he probably thought it wouldn't be a big deal. Its not like he's lying about taking steriods or HGH.

If I'm not mistaken, Tejada was mentioned in the Mitchell Report.

He still plays young.

Ah, I see. Well then I must be wrong, lol. But I still don't see why this is a big deal. Thats just me though. Could somebody explain why it is a big deal?
