Somebody leaked a report over the weekend that Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez tested positive for steroids in 2003, the same year that he won the MVP with the Texas Rangers. A report citing unnamed sources featured a list of 104 players who tested positive for steroids in 2003. I would have said “failed” the steriod test, but if they tested positive, wouldn’t that actually be passing?
As part of a joint agreement with the MLB Players Association, the testing was conducted to determine if it was necessary to impose mandatory random drug testing across the major leagues in 2004.
When approached by an SI reporter on Thursday at a gym in Miami, Rodriguez declined to discuss his 2003 test results.
MLB is claiming that those testing results were part of a series of “survey tests” and those offenders were not meant to be identified publicly.
Because the survey testing that took place in 2003 was intended to be non-disciplinary and anonymous, we can not make any comment on the accuracy of this report as it pertains to the player named.
A-Rod tested positive for testosterone and something called Primobolan, which has side effects including a proclivity to date chicks that look like dudes.

So if it was supposed to be anonymous, why were names involved?
This just means that Don Fehr and Bud Selig will have to bury their heads a little deeper in the sand…hopefully at some point they’ll suffocate and die.
Let’s see Kaballah get him out of this.
/seriously, this is just another notch in Bud Selig’s belt of incompetence
A-rod subsequently passed the manlygirls.com compatibility test.
Primobolan, not to be confused with its synthetic cousin, PrimoDolan, which increases your salary cap while shrinking your win total.
He got that shit from Madonna.
Syringe, penis, whatever…so long as its in his ass, A-Rod doesn’t care.
Took my steroids test. Passed. Got a 65.
A-rod hopes for another syringe in his mouth.
* CORRECTION *
A-Rod hopes for Derek Jeter’s syringe in his mouth.
/much better
“A-Rod tested positive for testosterone”
That can’t be right.
Does steroids make you swipe at the cathcer like a girl, if so then I knew it. If not then I guess dude was just a pussy all along.
He just came clean, reports on ESPN just interrupted Sportscenter and it’s front story on si.com
You know what. Who even gives a crap anymore. Apparently MLB don’t because if they really really did, they’d have RANDOM testing. Swab testing too not urine where they just sneak in clean urine because they know the test is coming. Make it random so they don’t know it’s coming and swab there mouth for the test so they can’t fake it. If not, then shut up about it and who cares because they’ll just keep doing it and doing it and doing it and when one gets busted we get a fake ass weak apology like that. I mean please….be real. There’s too much money involved to really test them and bench the steroid users. Half the league would be benched and MLB would come to a screaming hault!!!!!!!!!!!!
