Radomski’s legacy: The man who made the Mitchell report sing!

EDUCATED SINGER

This is something of a fresh start for Radomski: A lazy sunny afternoon along the waterfront that should be the first day of the rest of his life. And just hours earlier he stood in front of a federal judge empowered to put him in prison for six months. But Radomski walked away a free man, slapped with five years probation and a $18,575 fine. Without his cooperation, former Sen. George Mitchell’s nearly two-year-long steroid investigation would have been doomed, little more than a $20 million academic study on the subject. Radomski helped build Mitchell’s case with bank records and canceled checks, phone records and shipping receipts. Radomski claims that the only reason he sang like a canary is because he had to protect himself when he cooperated with federal authorities and the Mitchell Commission.

He does not like the fact that people call him a rat, because he believes that one or more players confessed on him first. Radomski makes a great and valid point when he goes on to tell reporters that “The only reason [federal investigators] came at me is because of the ballplayers. That is the only reason. I would never have been on the radar. I wasn’t a dealer.” This is a good point that has raised some questions in my head. Why did they go to Radomski years after he was supplying the steriods. I have to believe that some of the players threw his name in there saying that I got the stuff from him. But one thing that I have to totally disagree with in that statement is when he says that he is was not a dealer…o really then what are you bra! You are the one who sold it to the players and some people believe it was for little or no profit but rather for a favor. You also sold it to McNamee…I am not into the whole drug thing but I am pretty sure that, that is considered to be a dealer…thats just me thinking out loud!

I am sure there are a million people like me who are getting sick of all of these dudes whining (Radomski & McNamee) like this. I am sure they sold the stuff and I am sure that they have injected the stuff at least once in there life…Now there trying to take the high road by trying to make people feel sorry for them…o I confessed…feel sorry for me, now eveyone hates me…PLEASE. They are talking about how they are just trying to protect there families and I have no problem with that, but c’mon you should have thought about that before you started selling ILLEGAL DRUGS!
