    Great article on Ken Griffey Juicer from 2010. The simple answer to your question is people just don't want to believe what is right in front of them. People love believing the fairy tale, the magic and the mythology spewed forth by the snake oil salesman. He may never have been tested, but he was outperforming people on his team who were clearly doing PEDs. Was he *THAT* gifted? I don't believe in Santa Claus either.

    Hey there, Asher. Unfortunately, I'm not related to Mike Bielecki of Cubs/Braves fame. I've been told my last name is like Williams or Johnson-common in Poland, go figure! LOL
